Axiom AS Cushion

The Axiom AS cushion is Ki Mobility's adjustable skin-protection wheelchair cushion with a self-adjusting Hydrolite system for Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. The live AS/ASP card prints a 4.5 inch (11.4 cm) overall height, 3.8 inch (9.5 cm) leg troughs, 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg), widths and depths from 14 to 22 inches (35.6 to 55.9 cm), and a 350 lb (158.8 kg) rating.

This is a quote-only size. A seating therapist confirms width and depth before we order. AS uses the rider's bodyweight to set fluid volume. It is 4.5 inches tall. ASP is the 5.5 inch positioning sibling. If a seating therapist wants a different family, Westin also quotes the JAY Fusion with Cryo, the ROHO High Profile, and the Prism Supreme II Plus.

Who this cushion is for

The Axiom AS cushion fits a person whose seating therapist wants adjustable skin protection in fluid, without adding the extra positioning height of ASP. Stay here at 4.5 inches. Choose the Axiom ASP Cushion if the therapist wants the same self-adjusting system at 5.5 inches.

• Adjustable skin protection, self-setting Hydrolite
• 4.5 inch (11.4 cm) overall, 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg)
• 350 lb (158.8 kg) rating

Self-adjusting Hydrolite and microclimate

The Axiom AS cushion loads the femurs, trochanters, and ischia independently. Ischial bladders use more mobile Hydrolite. Trochanteric bladders use a stiffer Hydrolite for reach and transfer. The rider's shape and mass set the volume; when load is even, adjustment is done. Vents handle ambient pressure change. A dense reticulated foam layer under spacer fabric lets air move. The closed-cell foam base has pathways so moisture can leave the sitting surface. The outer cover is pleated 4-way super stretch Lycra.

A seating therapist still checks the fit. The self-adjusting system does not replace an assessment.

Axiom AS Cushion specifications

These figures are from Ki Mobility's current Axiom AS/ASP card. The specification tab holds the stored values. We do not invent a size picker.

Height overall 4.5 inches (11.4 cm). Leg troughs 3.8 inches (9.5 cm). Width 14 to 22 inches (35.6 to 55.9 cm). Depth 14 to 22 inches (35.6 to 55.9 cm). Product weight 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg). User weight capacity 350 lbs (158.8 kg). Classification: adjustable skin protection. Cover: pleated 4-way super stretch Lycra.

The Axiom AS and ASP owner's manual prints 24 months on the cushion and 6 months on the cover.

Width and depth

A seating therapist measures hip width in sitting and names a 14 to 22 inch width and depth. Westin orders that size after the assessment. Fitting follows Ki Mobility's AS/ASP fitting guide after the cushion arrives.

Which Axiom wheelchair cushion fits

The Axiom AS cushion is the 4.5 inch self-adjusting fluid skin-protection step. Stay here if the therapist wants bodyweight to set the fluid, without ASP's extra height. The Axiom One Cushion is the value general-use foam start. The Axiom G Cushion adds the full Axiom Difference well and cover choice. The Axiom S Cushion is the entry skin-protection foam. The Axiom P Cushion is the positioning foam at 3.5 inches. The Axiom SP Visco Cushion puts viscoelastic foam in the well. The Axiom SP Fluid Cushion swaps that well for Hydrolite fluid. The Axiom AS Cushion is the self-adjusting fluid skin-protection step. The Axiom ASP Cushion adds positioning height to that fluid system. The Axiom Air LTE Cushion is the 1 lb four-size air seat. The Star Stabil Air Cushion and Star Standard Air Cushion are the Etac Star air-cell seats.

Funding help for a wheelchair cushion or back support in Ontario

This cushion or back support is an ADP positioning device category item. Ontario's Assistive Devices Program (ADP) can fund 75% of the cost of positioning devices such as cushions and back supports when they are prescribed through an assessment by an ADP-registered occupational therapist or physiotherapist with an eligible mobility device, and some income-support programs cover the full cost. Not every product qualifies, so talk to us before you buy. March of Dimes Canada, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), and community programs can also help. Westin Healthcare's staff work with these programs every week and will point you to the right route for your situation. Visit our funding page or call (905) 451-7743 to talk it through.

Service and warranty

When something on the cushion needs work, you call the shop that set it up, not a US parts desk. Westin Healthcare has a service and repairs department. Our technicians come to the home or workplace.

Ki Mobility Axiom AS warranty

The Axiom AS and ASP owner's manual prints 24 months on the cushion and 6 months on the cover, for the first consumer purchase. Punctures, tears, and burns sit outside that term. We handle the warranty claim with you. Ask us if an extended warranty is offered for your order.

Frequently asked questions

What Size Wheelchair Cushion Do I Need?

The Axiom AS cushion is ordered by seat width and depth after a seating therapist measures hip width in sitting and matches the wheelchair seat. Westin quotes and orders that size after the assessment.

How Do I Choose Between Gel, Foam, And Air Cushions?

Ki Mobility Axiom foam cushions (One, G, S, P, SP Visco) are foam. Axiom SP Fluid, AS, and ASP use Hydrolite fluid, which is not gel. Axiom Air LTE and the Star cushions are air cells. A seating therapist names the class. Do not pick from a photo alone.

Does ADP Cover Wheelchair Cushions?

Ontario's Assistive Devices Program can help with a wheelchair cushion or back support after an ADP-registered therapist assessment with an eligible mobility device. Eligibility depends on the person. Call (905) 451-7743 or use the funding page before you buy.

Does The Axiom AS Cushion Need Hand Pumping?

The Axiom AS cushion is a self-adjusting Hydrolite system. Ki Mobility writes that the rider's bodyweight sets the fluid volume. It is not an air-cell cushion and it is not pumped like Air LTE or Star.

The Axiom AS cushion is rated at 350 lbs (158.8 kg) on Ki Mobility's current card.

How Do I Clean The Axiom AS Cushion?
