The ALBE GAS HR forearm walker (1-2246-HR) is a gait trainer with padded forearm supports for walking practice, muscle building and mobilisation. The user supports a large part of their body weight on the forearms, moves protected inside the frame and regains the confidence a rollator can no longer provide. The gas spring adjusts the height continuously and effortlessly, while the dual-function hand brake secures movement and standstill. CE MDR Class 1, 5-year warranty.

Product in detail
ALBE GAS HR – gas spring with dual-function hand brake
On the ALBE GAS HR, a gas spring handles the height adjustment: continuously between 83 and 131 cm, without tools and without effort. In daily use with changing users, this saves noticeable time. Add to that the dual-function hand brake on two castors, which brakes gradually while walking and locks when stationary. The frame is welded, powder-coated in RAL 9006 and suitable for wipe disinfection.
Gas spring
Continuous height adjustment that stays quick even with frequent changes of user.
Dual-function hand brake
One lever at the handle: pull to brake gradually, engage to lock when stationary – without bending down.
Forearm supports
Padded, wipeable and adjustable to the user in height and width (29–46 cm).
Reuse
Bought once, used many times
A walker that returns to service after reprocessing is paid for only once – every further deployment lowers your cost per use.
Reuse is good not only for the environment, but also for your margin.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a forearm walker and a rollator?
The forearm walker takes a large part of the body weight via the forearm supports. It provides considerably more stability than a rollator, where the user only holds on with the hands.
Can the model be reprocessed?
Yes. The welded steel frame, powder-coated surface and replaceable wear parts are designed for reuse. The CE label remains legible even after disinfection.
Are spare parts available?
Yes, castors, pads, forearm supports and adjustment parts can be reordered individually – see Spare parts & accessories.
When is the gas spring worthwhile?
Whenever several users share the same walker. The height can be adjusted in seconds and without effort – typical for gait training, hospitals and care homes.
How does this model differ from the 1-2245-HR?
Only in the height adjustment: the 1-2245-HR is adjusted manually, this model uses a gas spring. Frame, forearm supports and hand brake are identical.
