JAY J3 Carbon Backrest

Designed to provide an ultra lightweight and stylish backrest for active users, the J3 Carbon backrest provides firm stabilisation of the pelvis and lower spine to encourage an optimal spinal curve. This stability is needed for upper body movement to ensure you can maintain an active lifestyle. Apart from being exceptionally comfortable, it can also help to reduce back pain.

The force that’s generated when propelling your wheelchair is transferred more efficiently through a solid backrest into the frame. That means you’re generating greater movement of your wheelchair with less effort.

Lightweight, strong and stylish

Carbon fibre is lightweight and strong – therefore the ideal material for backrests. Offering the same strength as aluminium (but 60% lighter), the J3 Carbon backrest reduces the weight that a wheelchair users has to push and transfer. Day-by day, you’ll feel the difference!

Adjustable to your needs

Different needs demand different solutions. The four back heights (from 17cm – 38cm) focus on the active user with a need for low to moderate posterior trunk support. Mild lateral trunk support is provided by the 5cm contour depth.

Choose your mounting system

The J3 carbon backrest is available with two different mounting systems. The rigid system offers fixed frame wheelchair users an ultra-lightweight two-point attachment whilst the two-point quick release system is ideal for folding wheelchairs. Both systems offer the same adjustments in angle, depth, height and width to adapt to your individual needs.
