Overview
The standard Motion Composites wheel lock, sold as a pair or by the side

The Newton wheel lock is a push to lock design in composite, with a spring mechanism that Motion Composites built to hold its setting.

Built for real life

What stands out

●
A spring does the holding
The spring mechanism is built to keep its setting, so the lock does not work loose with repeated use.
●
Composite body
Motion Composites lists it at 1.3 oz. (38 g) less than an aluminum wheel lock.
●
Push to lock
Push the lever forward to lock the wheel. Pull it back to roll.
●
A handle that lifts off
The 6" extension handle adds reach and leverage, and it comes off when you do not want it.
The Hieline Take

This is the wheel lock Motion Composites fits as standard, so it is the part to order when a lock on your chair is worn, bent or missing. The body is composite, and a spring mechanism does the holding. Motion Composites says that mechanism resists the loosening that makes an ordinary lock need readjusting, and that the composite body weighs 1.3 oz. (38 g) less than an aluminum one. Push the lever forward to lock the wheel and pull it back to free it. The version with the 6" handle suits a user who has trouble reaching or pushing the short lever, and the handle lifts off when it is not wanted. Order the pair or a single side, and have your chair's serial number ready so the lock matches your frame.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • need to replace a worn or damaged wheel lock on a Motion Composites chair
  • want a push to lock action
  • want the longer handle for reach

Look elsewhere if you

  • want a lock that also holds the chair on a hill (see the Newton Grade Aid)
  • need a pull to lock or a scissor lock
  • want to fit it to a chair that is not a Motion Composites
