Matrx Libra Heavy-Duty Cushion

The Invacare Matrx Libra Heavy-Duty Cushion provides advanced skin protection, pressure redistribution, and pelvic positioning support in a larger, higher-capacity design. Built for users who need the clinical benefits of the standard Matrx Libra cushion with added size and weight support, the Heavy-Duty version combines a contoured high-resilience foam base with a dual-layer Flo-tech™ fluid overlay to help protect vulnerable areas during extended wheelchair use.

Designed for users up to 500 lbs., the Libra Heavy-Duty supports larger seating requirements while maintaining the same focus on comfort, stability, and postural alignment. Its contoured shape helps promote pelvic support, midline leg positioning, and reduced sliding, while the maintenance-free fluid sac provides consistent immersion and pressure redistribution without kneading or routine adjustment.

Key Features

Heavy-Duty Skin Protection & Positioning Support

The Matrx Libra HD Cushion is designed to help balance pressure relief with seated stability. The dual-layer fluid overlay provides immersion and envelopment around sensitive areas, while the contoured foam base supports pelvic positioning and helps reduce unwanted movement during sitting.

For users who need larger seat dimensions or higher weight capacity, the Heavy-Duty Libra allows many of the same clinical benefits of the standard Libra cushion in a more supportive configuration. This makes it a strong option for bariatric users, long-term wheelchair users, and individuals at elevated risk of skin breakdown who require both comfort and stability.

Cover & Moisture Management

The cushion’s outer cover is designed for everyday wheelchair use, combining stretch, breathability, and moisture resistance. Hook-and-loop fastener strips help secure the cushion to the wheelchair seat, while the lifting strap and side pocket add practical convenience for handling and storage.

A flexible Platilon inner liner adds another layer of moisture protection beneath the outer cover, helping protect the cushion core from spills or moisture exposure.

• Larger cushion size availability than the standard Libra
