Mortuary Cot Straps, Covers & Accessories Guide

The right straps, handles, rails and textiles make a first-call cot safer to load and more dignified to present. This guide covers cot straps, covers, pouches and other mortuary cot accessories, and which TITAN cots each one fits.

Mortuary cot straps

The TITAN 2-piece restraint straps use 2-inch black nylon webbing with quick-release, chrome-plated push-button buckles. A hemmed tab keeps the strap from pulling free of the buckle. They fit any mortuary cot or stretcher.

Length Strap size Good for
5 ft 60 × 2 inches Standard cots and typical first calls
7 ft 84 × 2 inches Bariatric cots and larger decedents, or when you need extra wrap

Handles and side rails

Extension handles are sold as a pair and add more than 12 inches of reach at the foot end, which gives staff more leverage with tall or heavy decedents. Universal side rails add lateral support over thresholds, ramps and uneven ground.

Pouch or cover?

A TITAN Extreme cot pouch is a heavy-duty, zippered pouch that fully encloses the decedent on the cot. A TITAN Pro cot cover is a plush slip-over cover with a waterproof backing and a magnet-closure pocket for paperwork. Both come in five colors. See every style in mortuary cot covers. Choose Standard or XL to match your cot, and use XL sizes only on XL cots.

Common questions

Do TITAN straps fit other cots?

Yes. The 2-piece restraint straps fit any mortuary cot or stretcher.

Which strap length do I need?

The 5 ft strap suits standard cots. The 7 ft strap gives extra length for bariatric cots and larger decedents.

Can I add side rails when I order a cot?

Yes, on the 500E, 500T, PRO S 650 and PRO XL. Choose Yes under the Side Rails option on the cot page. The 1200XL needs a frame-top modification first.

Is a pouch the same as a cover?

No. A pouch zips closed around the decedent. A cover slips over the cot for presentation and protection.
