Description
Wheelchair Accessible Transfer Bathtub Built for Safety, Strength & Daily Care
The RK12 Winnipeg wheelchair accessible transfer bathtub is a professional-grade handicap bathing solution designed for users who require stable seated transfers, high weight capacity, and dependable safety systems. Manufactured in the USA and engineered by Rane, this model is trusted in medical facilities and home care environments where reliability and caregiver confidence matter most.
Unlike standard walk-in tubs, the RK12 Winnipeg is purpose-built for wheelchair transfers and assisted bathing. Its compact footprint, outward-swinging door, and elevated seat height allow caregivers and users to complete transfers smoothly without unnecessary lifting or twisting.
Designed for Confident Wheelchair Transfers
The RK12 Winnipeg features a carefully positioned seat height that aligns with most standard wheelchairs, walkers, and patient lifts. The outward right-swinging door opens wide, allowing the user to move laterally onto the seat with minimal effort and reduced fall risk.
Once seated, the user is fully supported in an upright bathing position that promotes stability and caregiver access. This design allows bathing to remain dignified, efficient, and controlled — even for users with limited lower-body strength or balance.
KEYLOCK™ Door System for Superior Water Security
One of the defining features of this wheelchair accessible transfer bathtub is the KEYLOCK™ door system. This unique handle design prompts door compression, creating a watertight seal that caregivers can visually and physically confirm before filling the tub.
This added layer of security is especially valuable in medical and institutional environments where reliability and consistency are non-negotiable.
Heavy-Duty Construction with High Weight Capacity
The RK12 Winnipeg is constructed using high-gloss gelcoat composite materials reinforced by an aircraft-grade aluminum welded frame. This structure supports an impressive 600-pound occupant capacity, making it an excellent option for bariatric users and long-term care facilities.
At full capacity — including water and occupant — the tub supports approximately 905 pounds. Four adjustable leveling feet allow precise installation and long-term stability on a wide range of flooring conditions.
Integrated Safety, Hygiene & Monitoring Systems
This transfer bathtub includes multiple factory-installed safety and hygiene features designed for daily clinical use. A built-in thermal mixing valve helps regulate water temperature, while the integrated disinfectant system supports infection-control protocols between baths.
A digital temperature readout provides caregivers with real-time monitoring, reducing guesswork and improving overall bathing safety. Optional lap and shoulder harness fittings, along with a secondary safety latch, further enhance user security when needed.
Compact Footprint with Flexible Plumbing Options
With an overall length of just over 61 inches, the RK12 Winnipeg is ideal for facilities or homes where space efficiency is important. Despite its compact size, the tub offers a comfortable bathing well with a water depth of over 21 inches.
The unit supports reverse plumbing configurations and standard ¾-inch hot and cold water connections, allowing it to integrate smoothly into both new construction and retrofit projects.
Made in the USA. Trusted by Care Professionals.
The RK12 Winnipeg is proudly manufactured in the United States and designed to meet recognized CSA, ANSI, ASME, and UL standards for professional bathing equipment. These certifications give peace of mind to facility managers, clinicians, and families alike.
This is not a mass-market bathtub. It is a purpose-built mobility solution engineered for durability, safety, and long-term performance.
