Articulating Gel Forearm Support with Removable Mouse Trayby AIData |
| Ergonomic Benefits Additional Resources Accessories | | Product Summary |
|---|
The ErgoCanada Articulating Gel Forearm Support with Removable Mouse Tray is designed to support the weight of your arm while using the mouse or keyboard. By taking the weight of the arms off the shoulders, neck and back, fatigue and discomfort arising from computer use can be avoided.This fully-adjustable, durable articulated gel forearm support provides excellent support and the soft gel rest area ensures that there are no pressure points on the arms - allowing unimpeded circulation during use. This makes it ideal for relaxing and strengthening fatigued or damaged muscles, tendons, and ligaments. | | Features |
|---|
- : As the support is on the forearm, there is no risk of applying pressure to the wrist, which is important in preventing pain arising from compression of the Median nerve (in the wrist), which is often associated with RSI, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Tendonitis.
- : With over 15" (38.1 cm) of extension from the edge of your desk (12.25" (31.1 cm) to the centre of the pad) you can easily mount this support to your desk without affecting your workspace. Most individuals will clamp the support just to the right of their keyboard, allowing you to move while supported between your keyboard and mouse.
- : The movement of the arm is fluid, smooth and effortless; there is no friction and the joints do not offer any resistance when switching from one task to another.
- : The arm has 2 rotation points; the first (closest to the clamp) is used to set the overall height of the support, the second (closest to the user) is to adjust the angle of the gel pad (allowing you to have it sloping downward, upward, or level). To adjust either the height or the tilt, simply twist the large easy to use knob a couple of rotations, adjust the 'joint' to the desired location, and twist it back to tighten it. The knob uses a gear system (teeth and valleys) which makes it easy to get a tight, secure fit with minimal force.
- : The height adjustment on this support is remarkable; from 3" (7.6 cm) below the worksurface to 5" (12.7 cm) above the worksurface. This height adjustment makes it ideal for use with vertical keyboards such as the Safetype or Comfort Keyboard System, where other forearm supports may literally 'fall short'.
- : Every support comes with a mouse tray; if you are using both supports, you are ready to use your pointing device in a more 'ergonomic' fashion. Many ergonomists recommend using your right hand in the morning and your left hand in the afternoon for mousing. If you have an ambidextrous mousing device (like a touchpad, trackball, or a 'normal' mouse), you can move it from one pad to the other. If you prefer to have it off, it is easily removable. The mousing surface is more than ample at 8.75" x 7" (22.2 cm x 17.8 cm), and it swivels 360ยบ so it can either hover just over your worksurface or extend out from the worksurface towards you (allowing you to lean back when you are only mousing and not using the keyboard).
- : The gel pad is soft but resilient, providing good support without restricting blood flow. It will shape itself to the arm of the individual, but will 'reshape' back to its original position when not in use. There is a lycra covering on the pad, which allows the skin on your arm to 'breathe' (i.e. heat is not trapped, so you won't get hot spots and sweat). The gel pad is curved and is 5.25" (13.3 cm) long x 4" (10.2 cm) wide x 1" (2.5 cm) high.
- : The adjustable clamp accomodates any table up to 1.85" (4.7 cm) thick while using all the 'teeth'. If you need to accomodate a thicker surface, the clamp is adjustable up to 2.5" (6.4 cm) (less teeth will be used, but it is still stable until less than a third of the teeth are being used).
- : The Articulating Gel Forearm Support with Removable Mouse Tray is sturdy enough to be used in an industrial environment while still having an attractive professional appearance allowing it to unobtrusively blend into any modern office.
- : The arm is composed of a durable aluminum alloy with a non-reflective silver/pewter finish, and it supports up to 24.25 lbs (11 kg).
- : This product boasts a solid, durable design, superior range of adjustability and as such is the most versatile forearm support available to accomodate any task, whether you are working on a computer in an office, working on a microscope in a lab or working in a factory on an assembly line.
