Gel Slip Cover for Permobil Corpus 2 Arm Pad
The Gel Slip Cover for Permobil Corpus 2 Arm Pad is designed to provide additional cushioning and protection over the existing wheelchair arm support. It provides a softer contact surface for the arm and elbow and can be particularly useful where additional protection is required during prolonged wheelchair use.
Each slip cover incorporates Gel Ovations Dimensional Gel, providing a soft and conformable interface between the user and the existing Permobil arm pad.
Additional Arm and Elbow Protection
Wheelchair arm supports can create areas of prolonged contact around the forearm and elbow. For users with vulnerable skin or reduced ability to reposition independently, additional protection around these contact areas may be beneficial.
The Dimensional Gel within the cover helps provide cushioning and supports the redistribution of localised pressure while helping reduce the effects of friction and shear.
Designed for Permobil Corpus 2 Arm Pads
The cover is specifically designed to fit over compatible Permobil Corpus 2 arm pads, allowing additional gel protection to be introduced without replacing the existing arm support.
Its easy-to-fit design makes it a practical addition to an existing wheelchair seating arrangement.

The Gel Slip Cover is available in four lengths:
- 10″ (255mm)
- 12″ (305mm)
- 14″ (355mm)
- 16″ (405mm)

Dimensional Gel
Gel Ovations Dimensional Gel provides a flexible, conformable surface designed to protect areas of the body exposed to prolonged contact.
For wheelchair arm supports, this provides additional cushioning around areas such as the forearm and elbow, while helping manage pressure, friction and shear.
Suitable for Wheelchair Pressure Care
The Permobil Corpus 2 Gel Arm Pad Cover may be considered where additional arm and elbow protection is required as part of an individual’s wheelchair seating and pressure-care requirements.
It can be particularly relevant to Occupational Therapists, wheelchair services, rehabilitation professionals, carers and wheelchair users looking to introduce additional protection without changing the existing Permobil arm support.
