Frequently Asked Questions
What are ProBasics Aluminum Crutches used for?
They provide support and mobility for people recovering from leg, knee, ankle, or foot injuries by transferring weight through the arms instead of the injured limb.
What is the difference between the CRJ, CRJR, and CRAT crutches?
CRJ models are youth or junior sizes with adjustable height for smaller users, while CRAT refers to adult sizing with a taller adjustment range to fit most adults comfortably.
How do I know which size model I need?
Choose CRJ if you are shorter or purchasing for a youth, and select CRAT for average to taller adults based on your height and fitting measurements.
What height range does the ProBasics CRJ crutch support?
CRJ crutches typically suit children or shorter individuals and provide smaller height increments for proper under-arm placement.
What height range does the ProBasics CRAT crutch support?
CRAT crutches adjust to fit most adults and offer greater weight capacity and taller settings compared to junior models.
When should I choose youth or junior crutches instead of adult crutches?
If the user is below average adult height or requires smaller ergonomic sizing for comfort and correct alignment, junior crutches are the best choice.
How do I adjust ProBasics crutches for proper fit?
Stand upright, place the crutch 2 inches to the side and 4 inches in front of the foot, adjust height so there is 2–3 fingers of space under the arm, and adjust the handgrip to keep elbows slightly bent.
Are ProBasics aluminum crutches lightweight?
Yes — aluminum construction keeps them strong but lightweight, making lifting and maneuvering easier for long-term use.
Can I use these crutches indoors and outdoors?
Yes, the rubber tips and stable design work well for household use, sidewalks, therapy centers, and daily mobility needs.
Do they come with padded grips and underarm cushions?
Yes — ProBasics crutches include padded underarm supports and comfortable handgrips to reduce pressure and improve comfort.
How long can I use crutches each day?
You can use them throughout the day as needed, but take breaks to avoid arm fatigue and adjust padding for comfort.
Are replacement parts available for these crutches?
Yes — you can replace underarm pads, tips, and grips over time if they wear out.
Can crutches help after surgery or ankle fractures?
