Quad Canes Now Available at Egan Medical Equipment

July 27, 2011 - PRLog -- Egan Medical, a retail provider of high-quality home medical equipment, medical supplies and soft orthopedic products, has improved upon its already impressive product selection with the addition of Quad Canes, which are now available for purchase from the company's website, http://www.eganmedical.com/ .

Quad canes are a type of mobility aid that is similar to a conventional quad cane, but with four ferrules (tips) instead of one, hence the name "quad cane". This allows the cane to stand on its own, while providing the user with additional support that goes above and beyond that offered by a standard cane.

Both wide-base (large-base) and regular-base (small-base) quad canes are now available at EganMedical.com. The difference between the two is in the size of the base, and the distance between the four ferrules. The base of the wide-base quad cane is 8" x 12", whereas the base of the standard model measures 6" x 8". Both models (the wide-base and the standard-base quad canes) feature a push-button height adjustment that enables the user to adjust the height of the device from 30" to 39".

The quad canes' aluminum construction means an extremely lightweight product, yet one that nonetheless provides superior strength and stability. The quad canes now available at Egan Medical (DMEMB-MDS86222W and DMEMB-MDS86228) are capable of supporting users weighing up to 250 pounds, and weigh less than two pounds apiece.

Egan Medical quad canes are manufactured by Medline, and come with a limited lifetime warranty on the base and shaft, and a six month warranty on all "wearable parts".
