Product Information
The X-IT Rescue Sling is a versatile, dual-configuration casualty harness designed for rapid and efficient rescue operations. It can be used either as an underarm lifting sling or as a traditional nappy-style seat harness, with the format adjustable even mid-rescue — including while the casualty is suspended.
Engineered for simplicity and adaptability, the X-IT can be quickly fitted to a casualty without requiring them to step into or through the harness, significantly reducing the need for movement or manipulation. Suitable for a wide range of body sizes — from large adults to children as young as five — it is ideal for both professional rescue teams and emergency response personnel.
Note: This sling is designed for rescue use only and is not certified to arrest falls.
