Product Overview
The PW85 Elbow Support Sleeve is a vital accessory for professionals engaged in repetitive physical exertion or heavy lifting. Designed to provide both stability and comfort, this sleeve helps mitigate the risk of strain-related injuries while offering significant pain relief for those managing existing elbow conditions. Its unobtrusive profile allows it to be worn comfortably throughout the working day without hindering performance.
Key Features
- Joint Stabilisation: By providing firm support to the elbow, this sleeve reduces the likelihood of injury during demanding physical tasks, ensuring you can focus on the job at hand.
- Adjustable Compression: The integrated strap allows for a tailored fit, providing specific pressure where it is most needed to improve circulation and reduce swelling.
- Ambidextrous Design: Engineered for versatility, the sleeve is suitable for use on either the left or right arm, making it a flexible addition to any PPE kit.
- High Elasticity: The material blend ensures the sleeve stays in place without slipping, maintaining consistent support even during rapid or repetitive movements.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a technical blend of nylon and elastane, this sleeve is designed for durability and flexibility. The lightweight fabric allows the skin to breathe, preventing moisture build-up that often accompanies prolonged wear. The elastane component provides the necessary stretch to accommodate various arm shapes while maintaining its original form after repeated use. This is not a bulky item; it is a streamlined piece of equipment that prioritises freedom of movement while ensuring the joint remains secure.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or print, on the PW85 Elbow Support Sleeve. This is a functional piece of PPE designed for medical and support purposes. Applying heat-sealed logos or needlework would compromise the structural integrity of the nylon-elastane weave and interfere with the essential compression properties required for joint stability.
Use Cases
This support sleeve is ideal for a wide range of industries where physical labor is a daily requirement. It is particularly beneficial for tree surgeons, healthcare professionals including nurses and hospital staff, and those working in veterinary or dental practices who may experience strain from precise, repetitive arm movements. It is also suitable for warehouse staff or tradespeople involved in frequent lifting.

Practical Advice
As this is a Size Large, we recommend measuring the circumference of your elbow to ensure a snug yet comfortable fit. For maximum benefit, the sleeve should be worn directly against the skin. It is thin enough to be worn discreetly under long-sleeved work shirts or sweatshirts without causing bulk or restriction.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the elasticity and compression of your support sleeve is essential for its continued performance. Over time, sweat and skin oils can degrade synthetic fibres if not managed correctly.
We recommend cleaning the sleeve in accordance with the internal care label. Avoid using high heat settings during cleaning or drying, as excessive temperatures can damage the elastane fibres, causing the sleeve to lose its tension and support capabilities. Similarly, the use of harsh chemical bleaches should be avoided to prevent the breakdown of the nylon structure, ensuring the product remains durable and effective for the long term.
