Click to zoomNewton Carbon Fiber Footplate
The Newton carbon fiber footplate is an angle adjustable footplate with rubber inserts for Motion Composites Helio folding wheelchairs. It comes in three sizes and is sold as a pair or by the side.
The Newton carbon footplate is a footplate for Motion Composites folding wheelchairs. Its angle adjusts, and rubber inserts add traction.
What stands out
This is the footplate from Motion Composites' Newton Ultralight package, sold on its own. The plate is carbon fiber, which is where it saves weight over the aluminum and composite plates, and rubber inserts across the surface keep a shoe from sliding. The angle adjusts, and the plate moves front to back across about 3", so the foot can sit flat where the leg puts it. It fits the swing-in and swing-out footrests on the Helio A7, Helio C2 and Helio Kids. Size goes by chair width, and you can order the pair or a single side. Motion Composites warrants its carbon fiber footplates for life to the first user.
Straight talk
Is it right for you?
A good fit if you
- have a Helio A7, Helio C2 or Helio Kids with swing-in or swing-out footrests
- want the lighter footplate
- want traction under the shoe
Look elsewhere if you
- have a Helio A6, which Motion Composites does not offer with the carbon footplate
- have a rigid APEX or Veloce
- have a chair 12" or 13" wide, which takes the 4.5" aluminum footplate
