Ergodyne 11118 Elastic Back Support Brace 4XL

Product Description

The ERGODYNE 11118 is the Proflex 1625 elastic back support brace, designed to promote proper lifting technique and enhance intra-abdominal pressure to reduce spinal stress during heavy lifting tasks. The all-elastic body measures 7.5 inches in height and delivers extra-firm lumbar support to help lessen lumbar strain and address chronic back pain. A contoured high-cut front panel provides a comfortable fit and is optimized for overhead lifting. Non-conductive polypropylene stays maintain long-term structural integrity, and rubber track webbing on the interior prevents the belt from riding up during use. This size fits waists from 52 to 58 inches.

The 11118 is suited for industrial and trade environments where workers perform repeated heavy lifting, bending, or material handling. Typical applications include warehouse and distribution operations, airport luggage handling, construction, maintenance, assembly and fabrication, and landscaping. The brace can be worn over or under clothing and converts between a full suspender-style back support and a standard back belt by detaching the shoulder straps. It is appropriate for job sites where prolonged or high-frequency lifting creates cumulative lower back stress.

Key Features

• 7.5-inch all-elastic body provides extra-firm lumbar and abdominal support
• Contoured high-cut front panel designed for comfort during overhead lifting
• Non-conductive polypropylene stays for durable, long-lasting structural integrity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fit for workers requiring a 4XL back support brace with a waist circumference of 52 to 58 inches.

Installation Notes

Fit is determined by measuring the circumference around the body at the belly button using a flexible tape measure. The front panel should sit approximately two fingers below the navel, and the brace should fit snugly around the hips. Shoulder straps should be adjusted to sit securely without causing tension. When not actively lifting, the belt should be loosened to prevent unnecessary abdominal compression.
