Technical specifications for the Ergear model indicate a chassis constructed from reinforced high-impact polystyrene. The primary mechanical component is a dual-axis pivot hinge facilitating a tilt range of 0 to 20 degrees. The 18-inch by 13-inch platform surface area includes a molded geometric pattern designed for passive tactile engagement without mechanical wear.
Performance metrics demonstrate that the tilt mechanism is tension-based and free-floating, providing immediate adjustment without the latency of motorized systems. Structural integrity is rated for seated foot pressure only; over-torquing the pivot points via standing weight can lead to stress fractures in the injection-molded housing. Vertical clearance is fixed at 4.7 inches, limiting its application in environments requiring variable height lift.
Those who require tiered vertical stacking rather than a fixed-height tilt platform should evaluate the BlissTrends three-tier manual model as a suitable alternative.
This unit is a standard architectural component found in the ergonomic foot rests hardware category.
