Why choose the Soloc Uno Pelvic Positioning Hip Belt
- One-handed fastening made easy: The Soloc Uno is the first pelvic positioning belt designed specifically for individuals who can use only one hand or arm – ideal for stroke survivors or those with hemiplegia.
- Always ready to connect: One side of the buckle is securely held in place by a FlexiFix arm, keeping it upright and accessible for effortless one-handed use.
- Effortless magnetic connection: Simply pull the stud side across to the buckle – built-in magnets guide the connection smoothly and accurately.
- Easy to tighten: Use the large, easy-to-grip D-ring to tighten the belt comfortably and securely.
- Innovative magnetic buckle system: All Soloc products use a unique magnetic buckle designed for:
- Reduced hand function
- Limb difference
- One-handed use
- Quick, easy release: Press the release button or pull the tab – the buckle disengages smoothly, even under full body weight.
- Tested for performance and safety: All Soloc belts meet ISO 16840-3 and ISO 16840-10 standards for strength, durability, and safety.
How does it work?
The FlexiFix arm keeps the seatbelt buckle upright and ready, making it easy to bring the stud side over and connect with one hand. A built-in magnet guides the buckle into place, activating a secure physical connection. To tighten, simply pull the D-ring as you would with a standard belt.
Releasing the belt is straightforward: press the small lip or pull the release tab, allowing users with limited hand mobility to unbuckle independently. When not in use, the FlexiFix arm stays upright, which simplifies transfers in and out of the wheelchair.
What sizes does the Soloc Uno come in?
The FlexiFix arm on the Soloc Uno belt is a fixed length, but features multiple mounting holes, so you can select the best fit for the user. An optional extender plate is available, adding up to 120 mm if extra length is needed.
The belt itself is adjustable on the webbing side, where it attaches to the wheelchair. Ensure there is enough webbing to allow the stud side to reach the upright buckle. Additional adjustment is available at the centre of the belt, near the buckle, which is ideal for daily changes such as accommodating different clothing.
Padding options
- Available padding options are: 600 mm or 700 mm in length
- 600 mm padding: minimum length of belt is 720 mm, maximum 1500 mm
- 700 mm padding: minimum length of belt is 820 mm, maximum 1500 mm
Accessories and installation

- Tubular frame clamp (works with the webbing side and fits into the Tri-plate)
- Frame saver clamps (compatible with both sides, supplied as a pair)
- Extender plate for extra length on the FlexiFix arm side
- Padding is removable for cleaning, and replacement padding is available separately.
