McKesson Full Body Sling X-Large 600 lb No Head Support
McKesson Heavy-Duty Full Body Patient Lift Sling β X-Large, 600 lb Capacity
Heavy-Duty Solid Polyester Bariatric Transfer Sling with High Back Profile, Padded Under-Thigh Panels, Outer Positioning Assist Handle, and Universal 4 or 6-Point Cradle Compatibility
The McKesson Full Body Patient Lift Sling in Extra-Large is a high-strength, bariatric-rated transfer sling engineered for safe, comfortable, and controlled patient handling routines. Designed for use with standard floor-style mechanical lifters, this XL sling provides complete posterior support for individuals with partial or total body dependency, reducing transfer anxiety and physical strain for caregivers.
Constructed from heavy-duty, moisture-resistant solid polyester, the sling features reinforced attachment points supporting safe working loads up to 600 lbs. Its extended high-back profile supports the torso and lower skull throughout the transfer arc, while padded under-thigh sections cushion high-pressure areas to prevent bruising and skin breakdown. Equipped with an outer positioning handle for guided placement into chairs or wheelchairs, this sling connects directly to 4-point or 6-point spreader bars without requiring external chains or extra straps.
Key Features & Benefits
- 600 lb Safe Working Load: Reinforced structural webbing and heavy-duty polyester safely accommodate standard to bariatric adult weight capacities.
- Universal 4 or 6-Point Spreader Bar Fit: Direct-connect attachment loops work seamlessly with floor-style lifts from Hoyer, Drive, Invacare, McKesson, Lumex, and Joerns.
- High-Back Torso & Skull Support: Extended back profile fully cradles the back and posterior head during elevation without dedicated headrest straps.
- Padded Under-Thigh Support Panels: Cushioned leg loops distribute weight evenly across thighs to minimize pressure points and tissue trauma.
- Outer Positioning Assist Handle: Rear-mounted handle allows caregivers to guide user alignment smoothly when lowering into chairs or wheelchairs.
- Moisture-Resistant & Machine Washable: Non-abrasive, 100% latex-free solid polyester fabric withstands repeated high-temperature clinical laundering.
Patient Transfer Specialist Insight: Properly sizing a full-body sling is vital for bariatric safety. An XL sling provides the essential surface width and thigh padding needed for larger body types, preventing uncomfortable pinch points at the hips. The integrated rear positioning handle gives caregivers great mechanical control when seating a user deep into a wheelchair backrest.

Does this model include a dedicated headrest panel?
This sling features an extended high-back design that supports the upper back and base of the skull during transfers. However, it does not include a dedicated rigid head immobilization strap for patients who require complete cervical fixation.
