Stryker Stair-PRO 6252 Stair Chair – 500 lb Capacity

The Stryker Stair-PRO 6252 Stair Chair is engineered to help EMS crews move patients down stairways safely and efficiently while significantly reducing operator strain. Independent ergonomic testing has shown that Stair-PRO users experience less physical stress and a lower risk of back injury compared to several major competitor stair chairs.

The 6252 utilizes Stryker’s Stair-TREAD system, allowing controlled descent without lifting. This improves crew safety and patient stability when navigating stairways in emergency situations.

This configuration includes extension handles, providing improved leverage and ergonomic lifting for EMS crews during patient transport.

Product Overview

Designed for demanding EMS environments, the Stryker 6252 features a rugged yet lightweight aluminum frame, extendable lift handles, large rear wheels, and color-coded controls for quick and intuitive operation.

The chair folds compactly for storage in ambulance compartments and can be power-washed for easy decontamination, making it ideal for routine field use. Stryker’s ergonomic handle geometry combined with the Stair-TREAD track system helps reduce musculoskeletal strain on providers while maintaining patient stability.
