TiLite Pediatric Coupons Available – Save on Custom Kids’ Wheelchairs 
Mobility Designed for Growing Kids
Children outgrow shoes every few months. Their wheelchair should keep pace. The TiLite pediatric wheelchair lineup is engineered from the ground up for young riders–not downsized from adult frames. Every dimension adjusts as your child grows, so you get years of use without replacing the chair or buying costly growth kits.
TiLite builds two pediatric models, each using their proven Tru-Fit component system. The TiLite Twist is a fully customizable rigid-frame chair sized from 8″×8″ up to 15″×16″ with a transport weight of just 12 lbs. The newer TiLite Pilot uses carbon fiber frame panels to cut weight by 50%, weighing in at 11 lbs with tool-free seat adjustments and a footrest that drops to just 3″ seat-to-floor.
Both TiLite kids wheelchairs are custom-built to your child’s exact body measurements, include transit tie-down options for school buses and accessible vehicles, and carry TiLite’s lifetime frame warranty.

Built-In Growth–No Kits Required
Most pediatric wheelchairs claim to “grow.” In practice, that means ordering separate growth kits, scheduling clinic visits, and bolting on extension parts that add weight. TiLite built a different system.
Tru-Fit System
Components clamp directly onto the frame tubing with precision-machined hardware instead of drilled holes. Your therapist can reposition the seat, axle, and footrest infinitely–not just in pre-set increments.
Width + Depth Adjustment
Both the Twist and Pilot offer 2″ of seat width growth and 3″ of depth growth right out of the box–enough to cover several years of a child’s development.
Height & Angle
Front seat height, rear seat height, backrest angle, and camber all adjust independently. As your child’s proportions change, the chair adapts without losing ride efficiency or postural support.
TiLite Twist – The Full-Range Pediatric Chair
The TiLite Twist covers the widest size range in TiLite’s pediatric lineup (8″–15″ width), making it suitable from early childhood well into the teen years. Its rigid mono-tube aluminum frame keeps energy transfer high while the Speedloader front caster housing adjusts fork angle in precise 1° increments.
The center-mount anti-tip with a single swivel caster lets young riders develop pushing skills without compromising safety. A height-adjustable, removable push handle gives parents control when needed. The high-mount footplate system drops seat-to-footrest height as low as 6″ without clamp-on risers.
TiLite Pilot – Carbon Fiber for Young Riders
The TiLite Pilot pairs an aluminum skeleton with carbon fiber side panels and seat pan, cutting weight by roughly half compared to typical pediatric frames. At 11 lbs, it is one of the lightest custom pediatric wheelchairs available–a real advantage for small children who are just learning to self-propel.
Tool-free seat adjustments mean a parent or therapist can change width and depth on the spot without a trip to the clinic. The adjustable footrest reaches as low as 3″ seat-to-footrest height without add-on parts, and quick-release rear wheels simplify loading the chair into a car.
Custom-Measured for Your Child’s Body
Every TiLite pediatric wheelchair is made to measure. You specify seat width, seat depth, front and rear seat height, backrest height, footrest length, camber, and caster angle. Proper fit is especially critical for children–correct positioning reduces the effort of each push stroke and supports developing posture and skin integrity during long school days.
