Skil-Care EZ Clean Cotton Gait Belts with Built-In Handles (60-Inch / Commercial 24-Pack)
Skil-Care EZ Clean Cotton Gait Belt with Built-In Handles — Facility Case of 24
Institutional Patient Transfer Architecture with Bulk 24-Piece Supply, Two Permanently Stitched Vertical Handles, Quick-Release Delrin Buckles, and High-Temperature Institutional Laundering
The Skil-Care EZ Clean Cotton Gait Belt Facility Pack (Model: 252252) is a high-volume, professional-grade patient handling inventory package engineered for clinical wards, physical therapy units, and long-term care facilities. Shipped as a commercial case of 24 individually wrapped units, this bundle allows facilities to distribute clean, standardized transfer equipment across multiple nursing teams simultaneously. Positioned securely around an individual's waist over everyday clothing, each 2-inch wide cotton belt provides immediate, stable leverage points to coordinate standing routines, bedside transfers, and balance management while preventing caregiver lower-back injuries.
Crafted from 100% high-tensile launderable cotton webbing in professional blue with high-visibility red handles, each belt features two dedicated fabric grab loops stitched permanently into the structural webbing. These built-in vertical handles afford staff an immediate, secure grip from multiple angles, eliminating awkward finger pinching against flat webbing. Secured by a high-impact, clinical-grade Delrin plastic side-release snap buckle, the belt clicks locked firmly under tension and opens instantly with a simple two-finger pinch. Built to withstand commercial sanitization, the belts and buckles can be laundered in industrial facilities at temperatures up to 180°F.
Key Features & Benefits

- Extended 60-Inch Adjustable Length: Generous 5-foot length profile adjusts smoothly along the sliding track to accommodate average to larger-framed body profiles effortlessly.
- High-Temperature Institutional Laundering: Webbing and Delrin buckles withstand demanding commercial laundry cycles and tumble drying at temperatures up to 180°F.
- Infection Control Protocol Friendly: Bulk packaging facilitates single-resident-use protocols, assigning dedicated belts to specific rooms to reduce cross-contamination.
- High-Visibility Colorway: Professional blue webbing paired with bright red vertical handles ensures immediate visual identification of handle grip zones.
Patient Handling & Facility Inventory Specialist Insight: Standard flat gait belts force nursing staff to curl their fingers tightly under the strap, creating awkward wrist angles and pinching patient skin. The Skil-Care 252252 solves this by featuring permanently integrated vertical handles on each belt. Purchasing in a 24-piece facility case allows clinics to implement single-patient use protocols or maintain fresh, sanitized belts across every shift without laundering delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is buying gait belts in a 24-piece facility pack beneficial?
Bulk 24-packs allow hospitals and nursing facilities to standardize equipment across all staff shifts and implement single-patient use protocols. Assigning a dedicated belt to a resident's room helps prevent cross-contamination between patients.
Can these gait belts be washed in commercial facility laundries?
Yes. Both the 100% cotton webbing and the Delrin plastic side-release buckles are designed for institutional sanitization. The entire belt can be machine washed and tumble dried at temperatures reaching up to 180°F.
How do the built-in vertical handles improve caregiver ergonomics?
The permanently stitched red handles give caregivers dedicated loop grips to hold during transfers. This provides better physical leverage and eliminates the need to awkwardly slide fingers underneath a tight belt strap.
