The Slix50COM has been designed for difficult confined spaces. The articulated skirt at the bottom of the stretcher can be removed. When in place it provides protection for the upper legs and allows a degree of bending for tight spaces. Hauling points are located on the top and sides of the stretcher for manoeuvrability. The side hauling points will hold the stretcher in a semi horizontal position.

The integral spinal splint with head block ensures the casualty is immobilized during transport.
