AEL Hip Belt: 4-Point with Side-Release Buckle
Features
AEL 4-point hip belt with side-release buckle has four padded straps with 4 points of attachment, commonly designed to discourage pelvic tilt or rotation. 4-point hip belt is constructed of neoprene-padded material that is durable and contoured to the pelvis, and allows the straps to be tightly secured to provide superior comfort.
For optimum effectiveness, center the buckle and pad between the hips. Use the top straps to pull the hips back, stabilizing the lower spine. The bottom strap should be pulled down across the pelvis to position it at 90 degree angle. Once straps are installed and pad is centred, use the pull rings to adjust the length.
Suggested for wheelchair conditions:
- Positions the pelvis in the chair
Suggested for physical conditions:
- High tone
- Pelvic rotation
- Anterior pelvic tilt

Center Pull | Dual Pull | Rear Pull |
Center-Pull Hip Belts include one D-Ring to pull for adjustment. Pull the D-Ring away from the buckle to tighten. A single D-ring pull is typically easier for the client to tighten the belt with a single movement. | Dual-Pull Hip Belts are similar to a Center-Pull but they include two D-rings to pull for adjustment. Pull both the left and right D-rings away from the buckle to tighten. Two D-ring pulls allow the caregiver to adjust each side of the pelvis independently. | Rear-Pull Hip Belts include two D-rings to pull for adjustment. Pull both the left and right D-rings towards the buckle to tighten. Two D-ring pulls allow the caregiver to adjust each side of the pelvis Independently. |
