Overview
The hardware that holds an NXT back, QuickFit or fixed

QuickFit is the removable hardware every NXT back ships with. The fixed mounts are smaller and stay on the wheelchair.

Built for real life

What stands out

●
Clamps on without shims
The clamps fit back canes from 0.75" to 1" in diameter, metric or imperial, with no shims.
●
Comes off without tools
QuickFit lets the back lift off the chair by hand and opens wide enough to wrap around the cane without being taken apart.
●
Room to adjust
QuickFit gives 5" of depth and 50 degrees of angle, reverses for more range and accommodates an asymmetrical posture.
●
Fixed mounts for less bulk
The 2-point, 4-point and micro mounts stay on the wheelchair and are smaller and lighter than QuickFit, with less adjustment.
The Hieline Take

Every NXT back leaves the factory on QuickFit hardware, so a QuickFit kit is the direct replacement: it clamps onto back canes from 0.75" to 1" without shims, gives 5" of depth adjustment and 50 degrees of angle, and lets the back lift off without tools. The fixed mounts trade that range for a smaller, lighter part that stays bolted to the chair. The 2-point mount keeps 1" of depth adjustment and up to 25 degrees of angle each way, and NXT limits it to backs 16" high or lower. The micro mount takes up the least room on the canes and is for Optima and Optima Carbon backs 13" high or lower. The 4-point mount uses two brackets a side for stability, averages 15 degrees of angle, and rates an Optima 23" or wider at 550 lbs. The micro and 4-point mounts fit one chair width and do not adjust, so measure the distance between the back canes before you order. NXT lists none of the fixed mounts for the Armadillo.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • need to replace the QuickFit hardware on an NXT back
  • want a smaller fixed mount on a back that stays on the chair
  • are fitting a wide Optima for a 550 lbs. capacity on the 4-point mount

Look elsewhere if you

  • have a back support from another brand
  • want a fixed mount for an Armadillo back

Hardware
A QuickFit kit is a right or a left, so choose the pair for a whole back. Check under Specs which backs each fixed mount fits before you order.
