Why not pair this hoist with one of our popular slings?
The hoisting system of a mobile hoist needs a sling for correct use. Slings are available in various materials, shapes, and sizes to suit multiple requirements.
Mackworth, Prism and Care-ability branded slings provide excellent levels of comfort and support to the patient and are recommended for use with the Mackworth M180.
