The Whirlwind RoughRider has not previously been submitted to the FDA for clearance. The Whirlwind RoughRider utilizes carbon steel tubing (STKM 11 AC) that is bent, fastened and/or welded to create a frame. An X-Brace connects the left and right mono frame (single piece side frame design) side frames of the wheelchair together and serves as the mechanism that allows the frame to fold. A set of adjustable axle sockets are attached to each side frame which provide the wheelchair with ability to move the rear wheel position forward and backward to give the user an adjustment as to the center of gravity of the wheelchair. Front casters (hubs and tires) are connected to a fork that is fastened to the front frame of the caster housing. The front casters of the RoughRider are positioned approximately five inches further forward than most wheelchair designs, which gives the user of the RoughRider a very stable ride in terms of forward stability. The RoughRider is intended for use on smooth indoors surfaces and outdoor surfaces which require additional forward stability such as pocked dirt and uneven pavement. The nylon upholstery back and seat meets EN 1021-2: Flammability Testing with Match and Cigarette. Intended Use: To provide mobility to persons restricted to a seated position. The wheelchair is indicated for a weight capacity of up to 220 lbs. Substantial Equivalence: A product that is substantially equivalent to the RoughRider is the Invacare Tracer Ex2 , K935398, March 1, 1994. The RoughRider is comparable to the Invacare Tracer Ex2 wheelchair in its intended use, construction and functionality. Both wheelchairs feature X-Brace style folding frames, non-removable armrests, non-removable footrests, and are manually operated and meant to provide mobility to persons restricted to a sitting position. Both wheelchairs feature a fabric seat sling over an X-Brace style of folding mechanism. Both wheelchairs' footrests have the ability to be flipped up to allow open entrance for the riders' entry and exit from the wheelchairs' footrests are fixed laterally and do not swing away. Both wheelchairs frames are manufactured from carbon steel. Both wheelchairs are similar in weight and folding dimensions. Both the Whirlwind RoughRider and the Invacare Tracer Ex2 use solid rubber non-pneumatic front caster tires. Both wheelchairs are propelled using a manual push rim. The main differences between the two devices are as follows: - The Whirlwind RoughRider differs in the area of rear wheel position options in that the - RoughRider offers 5 horizontal axle positions. The Invacare Tracer Ex2 wheelchair has 2 vertical axle positions. - The front casters on the Whirlwind RoughRider are positioned approximately 5 inches । further forward on the wheelchair making a longer wheelbase for added stability as compared to the front casters on the Invacare Tracer Ex2. - The Whirlwind RoughRider wheelchair has a weight capacity of up to 220 lbs. and the -Invacare Tracer Ex2 has a weight capacity of up to 250 lbs. Performance Standards: Although no performance standards or special controls have Whirlwind Wheelchair International 510K Submission RoughRider® Wheelchair Page Number 13 {2}------------------------------------------------ been developed under Section 514 of the FDC Act for manual wheelchairs, the Whirlwind RoughRider has been tested in accordance with the standards referenced in this submission. Summary: The RoughRider and the predicate device have intended use, construction and functionality.
