The PINK SLIP® Elite Disposable Slip Tube is a premium friction-reducing device designed to improve patient transfers, repositioning, and mobility with less effort and greater comfort. Featuring “Whisper-Slide” technology, it allows for smooth, quiet movement while reducing skin shear and minimizing disruption in patient care environments.
Constructed from durable woven nylon with a high-slip surface, the PINK SLIP Elite glides on itself to support controlled movement during boosting, lateral transfers, turning, and seated pivoting. Its larger size offers increased body coverage, while its single-patient-use design helps support infection control protocols across a wide range of healthcare settings.
Versatile Support for Everyday Patient Handling Tasks
The PINK SLIP Elite is engineered for facilities that require higher performance and greater durability from a friction-reducing device. Its woven nylon construction provides added strength, while its larger size offers increased coverage to better support a wider range of patient handling tasks.
The addition of Whisper-Slide technology helps reduce noise during transfers, making it especially beneficial in environments where patient comfort and quiet operation are important.
The PINK SLIP Elite is built to meet the demands of modern healthcare environments where efficiency, durability, and infection control are essential. Its flexible yet strong material allows for smooth handling across a variety of patient care scenarios.

“Whisper-Slide” technology is designed to reduce the noise created during patient movement. In many care environments, minimizing sound is important for patient comfort and overall experience. This feature allows the PINK SLIP Elite to move smoothly and quietly during transfers and repositioning, helping reduce disruption while still maintaining effective friction reduction.
A friction-reducing device is a tool used in healthcare to minimize resistance during patient movement. These devices are commonly used for repositioning, lateral transfers, boosting, and early mobility exercises. By reducing friction and shear forces, FRDs help protect patient skin while also lowering the physical effort required from caregivers.
The PINK SLIP Elite offers several performance upgrades compared to the original version. It includes Whisper-Slide technology for quieter operation, provides nearly 30% more body coverage, and is constructed from a more durable woven nylon material. These improvements make it better suited for facilities that require enhanced performance, increased coverage, and longer use with a single patient.
Yes, the PINK SLIP Elite can be used with bariatric patients because it is not a lifting device and does not have a weight limit. For improved comfort and protection, multiple slip tubes can be overlapped to cover a larger surface area, helping reduce friction and support safer movement during transfers.
The PINK SLIP Elite is designed for single-patient use but can be used multiple times for that same patient. It can be wiped clean between uses as needed. The device should be disposed of once the patient no longer requires it or upon discharge, in accordance with facility infection control protocols.
Friction-reducing devices do not lift patients, so they are not assigned a traditional weight limit. Instead, they reduce the force required to move a patient. Facilities can reference force and compression studies to better understand how these devices improve efficiency and reduce strain during patient handling tasks.
