Tracer SX5 Recliner Wheelchair (Configurable)

The Invacare® Tracer® SX5 Recliner Wheelchair - Configurable combines the durability of the Tracer SX5 manual wheelchair platform with the added comfort and positioning flexibility of a full reclining back.

With a wide range of available seat sizes, arm styles, front riggings, upholstery options, and accessories, the Tracer SX5 Recliner provides a more personalized setup than a standard ready-to-ship model. Its durable carbon steel frame, heavy-duty inner liners, no-flex wheels, dual-sealed bearings, and reinforced upholstery help deliver dependable performance for daily use.

Reclining Comfort with Custom Configuration Options

The Invacare Tracer SX5 Recliner is designed for users who need the strength and maneuverability of a manual wheelchair with the added comfort of a reclining back. The 90°–180° recline range allows the backrest to be adjusted from upright to near-flat positioning, supporting rest, repositioning, and improved comfort during longer periods of seated use.

Because this is a configurable model, the wheelchair can be built with selected options that better match the user’s size and daily needs. Seat width, seat depth, armrest style, front rigging, upholstery, and accessory selections all help shape the final setup, making this a practical choice when a standard wheelchair configuration is not the right fit.

Built for Reliable Daily Use

The Tracer SX5 Recliner uses a durable carbon steel frame designed for long-term performance. Its 14-gauge crossbraces add strength to the folding wheelchair frame, while heavy-duty inner liners help reduce seat and back upholstery stretching over time.

The chair also features urethane rear tires mounted on no-flex wheels and dual-sealed precision bearings to support dependable performance with less routine maintenance. These durability-focused features make the Tracer SX5 Recliner a strong option for users who need a reclining wheelchair built for regular daily mobility.

Recline Range for Rest and Repositioning

The full reclining back provides important positioning flexibility for users who benefit from a reclined seating position. The back can be adjusted through a dynamic recline range from 90° to 180°, allowing the chair to support upright sitting, partial recline, or a more fully reclined resting position.

This added range can be helpful for users who need caregiver-assisted repositioning, a more comfortable resting angle, or a wheelchair that can support more than one seated posture throughout the day. Recliner wheelchairs are commonly selected when comfort and positioning flexibility are priorities.

Various Arm, Legrest, and Accessory Options

The configurable Tracer SX5 Recliner allows wheelchair users to choose available options based on the user’s comfort, positioning, and transfer needs. Armrest style can affect side transfers, table access, caregiver assistance, and overall upper-body support.

Front rigging options are especially important on a reclining wheelchair because lower-extremity support may need to coordinate with the reclined back position. Depending on the selected configuration, legrest and accessory options can help improve comfort, safety, and day-to-day usability.

Seat Size and Weight Capacity

The Invacare Tracer SX5 Recliner is available in multiple seat size options. Selecting the correct seat width and depth is important for comfort, positioning, and overall wheelchair performance.

Weight capacity varies by selected seat width. Models with 16"–18" seat widths support up to 250 lbs., while 20"–22" seat widths support up to 300 lbs. Choose the seat size based on the user’s measurements, weight requirements, and seating needs.

Durable Upholstery and Frame Support

The Tracer SX5 Recliner includes dual-embossed upholstery and heavy-duty inner liners to help reduce stretching and support longer-lasting seating surfaces. This is especially important on a reclining wheelchair, where the back and seat upholstery may experience repeated movement during repositioning.

Combined with the carbon steel frame, 14-gauge crossbraces, no-flex wheels, and dual-sealed bearings, these features help the chair deliver dependable performance for everyday mobility and reclining support.
