The Silvalea FastFit is a full body sling for hoisted transfers with a divided leg design, so it goes on and comes off in the chair or bed without lifting the client. The leg sections are padded, the loop attachments are colour coded by length, and there is a hygiene aperture for toileting. Safe working load is 220 kg in every size, from X Small to X Large.
Choose Superfine Plus, a soft quick drying polyester, for general use, or Parasilk, a fine Coolmax fabric that wicks moisture, for clients with fragile or sensitive skin. Machine wash up to 85 degrees and tumble dry on low.

Who it suits
A client who is hoisted for every transfer and needs head support, including clients with reduced trunk control or high tone. It is a general purpose sling for bed to chair, chair to commode and toileting. For a client who is left sitting on the sling all day, an in-situ sling with a smoother back panel is better; for a client with good head control who only needs a lift between chairs, a universal sling without head support is lighter and quicker.
Good to know
- Size by measuring from the top of the head to the base of the spine, and the shoulder circumference; ask us for the Silvalea sizing guide
- Loop attachment suits Molift, Oxford and most other loop spreader bars; not for clip bars
- Slings are a personal item and normally supplied new to each client
- Made in the United Kingdom
