SlipperySally Slide Tube - Single Patient Use

Product Overview

The Haines® SlipperySally® Slide Tube is a purpose-built patient handling solution designed to deliver smooth, efficient transfers across a range of clinical settings. Constructed from silicone-coated polyester taffeta with a heat-sealed and sewn join, the slide tube glides on itself to enable multi-directional movement — making it far simpler to reposition patients safely in bed or chair. Much like how a well-engineered slide water slide channels movement with minimal resistance, the SlipperySally Slide Tube reduces friction to support controlled, effortless patient transfers.

Available in both Bed to Bed and Chair Size configurations, this single patient use option provides a hygienic, ready-to-grab solution that helps minimise cross-contamination risks associated with reusable move tubes. Each tube is individually sealed, radiolucent for use during X-rays and CT scans, and supported by a handy dispenser system — ensuring clinical staff have immediate access without waiting for reusable items to return from laundering.

Features & Benefits

Silicone-Coated Polyester Taffeta Construction — Heat-sealed with a sewn join, the material is engineered to slide on itself for smooth, low-friction patient movement.
Single Patient Use — Designed for one patient, this slide tube helps significantly reduce the risk of cross-contamination compared to reusable move tubes.
Ready-to-Use Design — Individually sealed and available via a handy dispenser system, staff can grab and go without waiting for reusable tubes to return from the laundry.
Consistent Slip Quality — Unlike over-laundered reusable move tubes, the SlipperySally Slide Tube delivers reliable, consistent slip performance every time.
Multi-Directional Movement — Supports lateral, longitudinal, and repositioning transfers, giving clinicians flexibility across a variety of patient handling tasks.
Radiolucent — Safe for use during X-ray and CT scan procedures, meaning the tube does not need to be removed before imaging.
Two Size Options — Available in Bed to Bed Tube and Chair Size Tube variants to suit different clinical transfer requirements.
Cost-Effective Solution — Offers significant cost savings with no laundering costs required, making it an economical choice for high-volume clinical environments.
