The Silverback Prime wheelchair back incorporates a vertical insert of Geo-Matrix™ gel to target protection to the high-risk area around the spinal column. The spinal inserts ensure optimal comfort and skin protection from the shear that results when wheelchairs tilt and recline reducing the risk of pressure sores from developing along the spine
The Geo-Matrix™ gel is a mineral-oil-based dry-polymer solid gel that stays in place regardless of pressure and is unaffected by the pull of gravity. So whether in an upright position or in full tilt the unique properties of the gel allow it to move with the body reducing shear and reactionary force. The Silverback wheelchair backs are rated for up to 250 lbs. at all degrees for years of enjoyment and use (or abuse!).
The Silverback Prime is available in 3 contour depths: Active (2.5") Deep (4") & Extra Deep (6").
