The Newton folding stabilizer bar joins the back canes of a Motion Composites Helio folding wheelchair and releases with one hand. It is made in 1" steps for chairs 12" to 22" wide.
A back stabilizer bar that releases with one hand to fold
The Newton folding stabilizer bar links the two back canes of a folding wheelchair. A slide mechanism releases it with one hand so the chair can fold.
Built for real life
What stands out
●
One hand to release
A slide mechanism unlocks the bar with one hand so the chair can fold.
●
One hand to lock
The bar slides back and locks the same way when the chair is open.
●
A stiffer back
The bar ties the two back canes together.
●
Low profile
Motion Composites kept the bar slim so it sits close behind the back upholstery.
The Hieline Take
A folding wheelchair gives up some stiffness at the back, because the two back canes are joined only by the upholstery. A stabilizer bar ties them together, which firms up the back for the user and gives a helper something solid to push against. The trouble with an ordinary bar is that it takes two hands to undo before the chair will fold. The Newton bar slides open with one hand and locks again the same way, so folding the chair stays a quick job for someone with limited grip or dexterity. It fits the Helio A6, Helio A7, Helio C2 and Helio Kids. Motion Composites does not offer it with a stroller handle or with the heavy duty option, and it is made to your chair's seat width, so choose the width before you order.

Components1 year against defects in materials and workmanship, from the date of purchase
What Motion Composites doesRepairs or replaces the part
Not coveredNormal wear and tear, misuse, improper installation or maintenance, and changes made without Motion Composites' consent
The owner's manual is the full warranty
The owner's manual for this product has its own warranty section, and that section is the complete statement of what Motion Composites covers, for how long, and what falls outside the coverage. Read it before you file a claim. If anything on this page differs from the manual, go by the manual.
Parts and accessories cannot be returned. Check the size, the side and the chairs it fits on this page before you order. If it arrives damaged or defective, tell us within 48 hours of delivery and we will get it repaired or replaced at no cost to you.
If something goes wrong
Call us first at 1-855-HIELINE. We file the claim with Motion Composites for you and get the covered part sorted out rather than handing you a phone number.
Which width do I need?
The seat width of your chair. The bar is made in 1" steps from 12" to 22".
Which chairs does it fit?
The Motion Composites Helio A6, Helio A7, Helio C2 and Helio Kids folding wheelchairs. Rigid chairs do not use it.
Can I use it with a stroller handle?
No. Motion Composites lists the folding stabilizer bar as not compatible with the stroller handle.
Does it work with every back cane?
Motion Composites' parts manual calls for stroller handle sleeve 0032001A-00 when the bar goes on aluminum straight back canes with an integrated push handle. Tell us if that is your chair and we add the sleeve to the order with Motion Composites.
Does it fit a heavy duty chair?
No. Motion Composites does not offer it with the heavy duty option.
What should I have ready when I order?
The serial number of your Motion Composites wheelchair. Motion Composites asks for it on every parts order. Send it to us with your order number after you check out, and we match the part to the way your chair was built.
Will it fit a wheelchair from another brand?
Motion Composites publishes the fit for its own wheelchairs only, so we cannot promise it on another brand. Check the dimensions on this page against your chair before you order.
What is the warranty?
Motion Composites warrants its components for 1 year from the date of purchase against defects in materials and workmanship. Normal wear and tear is not covered.
Can I return it?
No. Parts and accessories cannot be returned, so check the size, the side and the fit before you order. If it arrives damaged or defective, tell us within 48 hours of delivery.
Is Hieline an authorized Motion Composites dealer?
Yes. Hieline is a Motion Composites dealer and orders Newton parts directly from Motion Composites, which makes them.
