Size guide for lifting slings

Handicare's lifting slings are available in sizes ranging from XXS to XXL. The smallest sizes fit children and small adults, and the largest sizes fit large and, often, overweight users. The three sizes in the middle of the scale, S, M and L, fit most normal-sized adults. We also have special lifting sling models in XXXL and XXXXL for extremely large and heavy users.

Hereunder you will find our size guide for lifting slings; an overview with article numbers and measurements for the different sizes of all Handicare lifting slings.

Trial fitting is a must

The size guide’s measurements and recommendations are only intended as an aid to selecting lifting slings. For a transfer with a stationary or mobile lift to be as safe and comfortable as possible, it is very important that the lifting sling is the right size and that the model is appropriate for the particular user and lifting situation. To determine which model, size and material are most suitable for the individual user, individual trial fitting is always necessary.
