Tracer SX5 Lightweight Wheelchair (Configurable)

Tracer SX5 Lightweight Wheelchair - Configurable

The configurable Invacare Tracer SX5 Lightweight Wheelchair gives users the strength, reliability, and everyday maneuverability of the Tracer SX5 with the added benefit of a custom-built configuration. Instead of settling for a standard setup, this version allows the wheelchair to be built around the selected seat size, arm style, back height, front rigging, upholstery, and accessory options.

Designed for long-term daily use, the Tracer SX5 combines a lightweight carbon steel frame with proven Invacare durability. Dual axle positioning allows seat-to-floor height adjustment, while heavy-duty inner liners, no-flex wheels, and reinforced upholstery help the chair stand up to routine use in home, facility, and clinical environments. For individuals who need more than a basic off-the-shelf wheelchair, the configurable Tracer SX5 offers a practical way to create a manual wheelchair that better matches the user’s size, support needs, and daily routine.

Built to Match the User’s Needs

The configurable Invacare Tracer SX5 is designed for users who need more control over the wheelchair setup than a standard model can provide. By selecting from available seat sizes, arm styles, back heights, front riggings, upholstery colors, and accessories, the chair can be built around the user’s size, positioning needs, transfer routine, and daily mobility preferences.

This makes the Tracer SX5 - Configurable a strong choice when the user needs a specific seat width or depth, a particular arm style for transfers or table access, or front riggings that better support comfort and lower-extremity positioning. Instead of adapting the user to a basic wheelchair configuration, this listing allows the wheelchair to be configured more closely around the user.

Lightweight Durability for Daily Mobility

The Tracer SX5 uses a lightweight carbon steel frame that weighs less than 36 lbs., helping balance strength, portability, and ease of handling. The folding frame design makes it practical for transportation and storage, while the durable construction supports regular daily use.

For users who need a wheelchair for long-term mobility, facility use, transport, appointments, or everyday home use, the Tracer SX5 provides a dependable lightweight manual wheelchair platform without moving into a higher-cost custom rehab chair.

Dual Axle Seat-to-Floor Height Adjustment

The dual axle design allows the Tracer SX5 to be adjusted between seat-to-floor height positions. This flexibility can help improve overall wheelchair fit, support foot placement, and accommodate different caster and rear wheel setups depending on the configuration selected.

Seat-to-floor height can affect transfers, propulsion, comfort, and how well the wheelchair fits the user’s daily environment. The dual axle frame gives the chair added setup flexibility compared with a fixed-height wheelchair.

Strong Frame and Long-Term Upholstery Support

The Tracer SX5 is built with durability-focused features that help it perform over time. The carbon steel frame, 14-gauge crossbraces, heavy-duty inner liners, and reinforced upholstery all contribute to a chair designed for repeated daily use.

The heavy-duty inner liners help reduce stretching in the seat and back upholstery, while urethane rear tires mounted on no-flex wheels help support a smoother, more stable ride. These features are especially important for users who need a reliable manual wheelchair for regular mobility rather than occasional short-term use.

Weight Capacity by Seat Width

The Invacare Tracer SX5 has different weight capacities depending on the selected seat width. Models with 14"–18" seat widths have a 250 lb. weight capacity, while 20"–22" seat widths support up to 300 lbs.

Choose the seat size based on the user’s body measurements, seating needs, and weight requirements. A properly selected seat size can improve comfort, posture, propulsion, and overall wheelchair performance.

Compatibility with Invacare 9000-Series Components

The Tracer SX5 combines the design and technology of the Invacare 9000-series wheelchairs, allowing many components to be interchangeable. This can be helpful for service, replacement parts, accessories, and configuration flexibility.

For users, caregivers, and facilities already familiar with Invacare manual wheelchairs, this shared design approach helps make the Tracer SX5 a practical and familiar lightweight wheelchair option.
