What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
These ski glides are a pair of slides that fit into the rear legs of most standard walkers, so the walker slides across the floor instead of catching and sticking. They sit between rubber tips and wheels: less grip than rubber feet, but more resistance than rear wheels. That balance suits someone who wants easier movement without a walker that rolls too freely. This is a replacement part for a walker you already own, not a walker on its own.
