Skil-Care Loop Gait Belt Handles (Reinforced Nylon / Commercial 6-Pack)

The Skil-Care Loop Gait Belt Handles (Model 913145) are heavy-duty, commercial-grade mobility accessories designed to add stable gripping options to standard transfer setups. Unlike consumer 2-packs, this facility-ready 6-pack provides enough slip-on loop handles to outfit multiple gait belts across a home-care environment or specialized clinical ward. By sliding these loops directly onto any standard 2-inch wide canvas, cotton, or vinyl transfer belt, caregivers can eliminate high-force pinch gripping, reduce hand strain, and manage ambulation with superior leverage.

Design & Functional Features

• Universal Dual-Loop Configuration: Engineered with a specialized dual-loop pathway — the smaller inner loop slides over any standard 2-inch wide gait belt and locks under tension, while the larger outer loop provides an open, ergonomic hand hold.
• Heavy-Duty 1-Inch Reinforced Nylon: Woven from premium, clinical-grade nylon webbing that provides exceptional structural strength, preventing fraying, stretching, or tearing during high-weight transfers.
• Flexible Multi-Angle Positioning: The handles slide smoothly along the length of the belt track before a lift, allowing assistants to place the handles exactly at the individual's side or back to match their specific lifting angle.
• Oversized 5-Inch Clear Grip: Built with an open 5-inch length profile that easily accommodates larger hands or thick protective gloves, ensuring a secure, full-fist grip without pinching.

Product Specifications & Identification

Important Product Characteristics

• Optimized Two-Caregiver Coordination: For individuals requiring maximum assistance, multiple loop handles can be slid onto a single belt, allowing two separate caregivers to hold distinct handles simultaneously from opposite sides for balanced walking coordination.
• Disinfectant-Ready Material: Designed to withstand rigorous everyday use in high-turnover care settings. The non-porous nylon material can be easily wiped down with mild healthcare disinfectant wipes or hand-washed to maintain strict hygiene standards.
• Caregiver Placement Protocol: For standard single-assistant lifting, place two loops on the belt. Position one loop directly at the center of the individual's back and the second loop on their side. Grip the rear loop with your dominant hand to establish the primary center-of-mass control.
