The Arjo Standard sling is a general purpose full-body sling with padded leg sections and head support, made for Arjo hoists with clip-attachment spreader bars. It supports the client from head to thighs in a seated position, so it is used for transfers between bed, wheelchair and commode, and for lifting from the floor. Sizes run from XS to XXL, with an LL size between L and XL for a longer back on a large-framed client.
The sling is polyester with padded leg pieces to reduce pressure under the thighs, and it is machine washable. Clip attachment gives a quick, positive connection to Arjo four-point spreader bars.
Key features
- Full-body sling with integrated head support

Who it suits
A client with reduced head or trunk control, low tone or fatigue who needs full support during a hoisted transfer, including lifts from the floor after a fall. It is the everyday sling for a client using an Arjo Maxi Move, Maxi Sky or similar clip-bar hoist. A client with good head control who is hoisted mainly for toileting is better served by an access or hygiene sling that leaves the lower body clear.
Good to know
- Fits clip-attachment spreader bars only; it will not attach to a loop-style hoist
- Size from the Arjo sling measuring guide; ask us for help fitting
- Check the client weight against both the sling and hoist safe working loads
- Inspect before each use and every six months, as required by ISO 10535
