You had the desire for a lighter weight crutch tip to reduce fatigue; a crutch tip that is highly wet-slip resistant; and the need for a Latex Free crutch tip to prevent serious latex allergies. And now, the new Tornado AIR satisfies these issues in one tip. Tornado AIR crutch tips weigh just 2.2 ounces…less than half the weight of most tips! Embedded inside the Tornado AIR tip is a large perforated steel disk that is mechanically bonded to the surrounding envelop. The disk will support great crutch loads and flex without ejecting the disk, making them last longer than ordinary crutch tips. Tornado AIR tips, while not slip proof, compare favorably to our patented proprietary highly wet-slip resistant Tornado Rain Tip tread piece. They imprint Peace Signs with every step when walking on soft surfaces...very cool! The trade-off for our lighter AIR crutch tips is they are less dense than our heavier Tornado Tips (GT), therefore they will not wear as long. I recommend Tornado Tips (AIR) for lighter weight, less active users who will benefit the most by having very lightweight crutch tips. For them, they wear a very long time and are very durable compared to ordinary store-bought crutch tips. About Us: Thomas Fetterman has been using crutches since he contracted polio in 1953. Thomas set out to build a better solution. He created and patented a shock-absorbing crutch tip that absorbs 80% of negative ground impact force and lasts 3-5 times longer than ordinary tips. That was just the start. Thirty years later, the company offers a full line of tips, forearm crutches, canes, and grips. All products are made in the USA using top quality components with over 1 million products sold worldwide. Review: They last forever - I’ve used crutches for 70 years. Best crutch tips I ever tried. They don’t wear down or chip apart. Review: Great value - I bought tornado tips all the time from a medical supply store and these are a great price compared to what I was paying. No slips yet and I like the ‘peace sign’ imprint it leaves behind 😊 ## Features - 50% less weight reduces fatigue - Amazing wet-slip resistance can greatly reduces falling - Enhanced comfort & shock absorption reduces shoulder damage - Latex-free compound reduces allergic reactions - From Thomas Fetterman – a leading US manufacturer of mobility products including crutches, tips, canes, and hand grips. All products feature a money-back satisfaction guarantee. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B06XXNY775 | | Base Material | Steel Alloy | | Brand | Thomas Fetterman | | Brand Name | Thomas Fetterman | | Colour | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 144 Reviews | | Extended Length | 34 Inches | | Handle Material | Rubber | | Item Weight | 64 g | | Manufacturer | Thomas Fetterman Inc. | | Manufacturer Part Number | 942 AIR | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Maximum Height Recommendation | 55 Inches | | Model Number | 942 AIR | | Number of Items | 2 | | Shaft Material | Alloy Steel | | Size | 1 Pair (Pack of 1) | | UPC | 612520514846 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Thomas Fetterman - **Material:** Plastic - **Colour:** Black - **Shaft Material:** Alloy Steel - **Extended Length:** 34 Inches ## Images ![Ultralight Tornado AIR Cane & Crutch Tips with Peace Sign imprint, Fits Canes or Crutches with 34 to 1 Inch Diameters, Black, Pair - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31A9teLe4BL.jpg) ![Ultralight Tornado AIR Cane & Crutch Tips with Peace Sign imprint, Fits Canes or Crutches with 34 to 1 Inch Diameters, Black, Pair - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41UY1zaTy8L.jpg) ![Ultralight Tornado AIR Cane & Crutch Tips with Peace Sign imprint, Fits Canes or Crutches with 34 to 1 Inch Diameters, Black, Pair - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41ht7vZMjTL.jpg) ![Ultralight Tornado AIR Cane & Crutch Tips with Peace Sign imprint, Fits Canes or Crutches with 34 to 1 Inch Diameters, Black, Pair - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51IFqM9r+RL.jpg) ![Ultralight Tornado AIR Cane & Crutch Tips with Peace Sign imprint, Fits Canes or Crutches with 34 to 1 Inch Diameters, Black, Pair - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/318vScn-YuL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do these make marks on the vinyl plank flooring ?** A: Nope. They only leave little peace signs in soft surfaces. They do grip well on vinyl and tile even wet. I'm happy with it on my walking stick which goes every where with me. You won't be disappointed. **Q: So these don't have gel in the tips, or??..** A: Don't think so. Feels solid to me. **Q: How much do these add to the length of the cane?** A: One inch. The cane fits down into the cane tip as far as the indented ridge (noted in the photo of the cane tip). The lower inch of the tip is solid rubber. **Q: 1" and 3/4" are not at all the same diameter, so how are these designed to fit that range?** A: Thank you for asking about our tips. Our tips are made of a more flexible material than most tips out there. The socket will stretch from 3/4" up to 1". ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They last forever *by P***L on 24 June 2026* I’ve used crutches for 70 years. Best crutch tips I ever tried.
