Product Description
Introducing the new TiLite TX folding titanium wheelchair technology - developed using rapid prototyping and finite element analysis to meet the demands of our customers. The new TX is stronger, lighter and designed to outperform. The TiLite TX incorporates a radical new cross-brace design that. when combined with welded one-piece side frames and fully integrated caster housings, will give folding chair users better energy transfer for more efficient propulsion. The new TX delivers the TiLite legendary super smooth ride while being incredibly light and compact. The TiLite TX is hand crafted from seamless, aerospace-grade titanium. Titanium has no equal when it comes to dampening vibrations caused by riding over rough or uneven surfaces. This means superior comfort for the user during many hours of use.Titanium’s weight is about one-half that of the aluminum used in most wheelchairs. This means that a complete 16” x 16” TX in its standard configuration weighs only 19.9 pounds! The TX must be the lightest folding wheelchair in existence. Titanium is incredibly strong. This means the TX will shake off years of abuse.
Custom Built
Each TX begins life in our Designs Unlimited Studio, where we draw
the frame to each user’s individual specifications. Next, TiLite
fabricators and welders bring the drawings to life by hand building
the TX’s 1.00” dual-tube titanium frame to exacting standards.
Finally, before each TX leaves the TiLite factory in Washington
State, we carefully assemble and inspect it to ensure that it
matches precisely what our customer has ordered. Each TX is like no
other TX.
One-Piece Side Frames
TiLite builds the TX with one-piece side frames. We also build our
rigid chairs with one-piece side frames. Other manufacturers build
their folding chairs with two- or three-piece side frames that are
bolted together, leading to flex, squeaks and loss of energy.
One-piece side frames increase performance by reducing flex and
increasing durability.
Rigid Folding Mechanism
The TX features TiLite’s exclusive Rigid Folding Mechanism cross
tube design “RFM.” The RFM cross tubes permit TiLite to use
one-piece side frames. This innovation increases performance and
enhances durability because the side frames are welded together -
not bolted. In addition, RFM cross tubes secure to the bottom frame
tube by clamping over it. This keeps the bottom pivot point in line
with the frame, allowing the chair to fold as narrowly as
possible.
Snap-In Seat Saddles
TiLite’s RFM cross tubes also feature snap-in seat saddles that
lock the cross tubes into place, helping the TX achieve rigid chair
performance.
Bullet Caster Housing
TiLite’s exclusive Bullet Caster Housing was created by designing
an integral frame component with two goals in mind; low weight and
elegant looks. Like many of TiLite’s innovations, the Bullet Caster
design reduces the weight of the chair. Sometimes simple really is
better.
Machined Camber Plugs
The TiLite TX utilizes machined plugs to create rear wheel camber.
Other manufacturers use washers to create rear wheel camber. The
use of machined camber plugs precisely aligns the TX’s rear wheels,
allowing the chair to consistently track straight.
Color
The TiLite TX is now available with a Satin or Polished titanium
finish or in one of 17 painted frame colors. Whether you are
looking for subtle, bright, or just plain cool, now there is a
TiLite look for you. Mix and match TiLite’s frame and accessory
colors on our Color Configurator.
