Molift Partner 255 Hoist
The Molift Partner 255 is a bariatric electric mobile hoist with a 255kg safe working load and a straight vertical lifting column for exceptional stability. Designed for acute and critical care, it suits hospitals, bariatric care homes and nursing homes.
The Molift Partner 255 is a specialist bariatric hoist built for the most demanding acute and critical-care transfers. Its defining feature is a straight vertical lifting column paired with a fixed sling bar: instead of arcing outward as it lifts, the Partner keeps the user at a constant distance from the column, delivering exceptional stability for complex or unconscious patients and making it compatible with the Molift stretcher for trauma and spinal situations. With a 255kg safe working load it handles plus-size residents, yet at around 42.5kg it is one of the lightest hoists in its category. The standard 4-point sling bar gives a spacious, comfortable position, and a version with ambulating support arms enables gait and walking training. As with every Molift, the Service Tool supports maintenance and LOLER compliance. Choose the Partner 255 where stability, bariatric capacity and acute-care versatility are paramount.
