Description
• EquaGelTM is a dry-polymer gel, almost rubbery. It is not a liquid.
• This gel has unbelievable tensile and compression strength.
• One of its most amazing features is referred to as column buckling. Simply put, each wall of gel is capable of supporting only a marginal load. When that threshold is exceeded, the wall buckles under and passes the weight to the surrounding walls for support.
• This buckling and weight-passing happens instantly and repeatedly until the maximum surface area of pressing weight is evenly supported by sufficient walls to hold the weight up, regardless of its shape.
• The area's most likely to develop pressure sores are allowed to float nearly pressure-free within the pad while the client's weight is distributed evenly across the cushion.
