Core Products RB Cervical Traction Table Pillow – Black

The Core Products RB Traction Pillow FOM-112-BK is a professional positioning accessory designed for cervical traction table setups.

Unlike a cervical sleeping pillow, its job is not to replace a bed pillow or create an overnight neck-support position. The RB Traction Pillow is designed to support the shoulders and lower cervical/upper thoracic region during traction procedures, and the space between its two raised lobes fits the bar of a compatible cervical traction table system.

Its precision-cut polyurethane foam provides a defined positioning surface, while the black vinyl exterior can be wiped clean between uses.

The RB Traction Pillow has a specific role in a clinical traction setup: it is placed under the shoulders and lower cervical region while keeping space for the cervical traction table hardware.

Its two-lobe geometry creates a central channel. When used with an appropriate traction table system, the cervical traction bar is positioned in the space between those lobes.

That makes the pillow different from a general foam bolster or sleeping pillow.

Before ordering, separate the positioning accessory from the equipment that actually produces traction.

It is designed to work with most standard traction tables. Because traction-table hardware varies, confirm the geometry of your existing system when fit is critical.

The word “pillow” can make these products sound interchangeable, but their intended jobs are quite different.

Choose the RB model when the purchasing need is specifically traction-table positioning.

Choose the EconoWave Cervical Pillow when the goal is overnight cervical support.

The RB Traction Pillow is also not a lower-cost cervical traction machine. It does not create, control, or measure traction force.

If you are researching whether cervical traction itself is appropriate, rather than simply purchasing a replacement positioning pillow, see our Cervical & Lumbar Traction resource and product collection.

For Saunders owners, we also provide a dedicated Saunders Cervical Traction Setup, Angles & Safety Guide. That clinical resource should include treatment force, angle, and contraindication information, rather than duplicating it on this accessory page.

Core Products specifies a simple installation concept for a traction-table setup:

1. Position the RB Traction Pillow on the traction table according to the equipment configuration.
2. Orient the two raised lobes toward the cervical traction assembly.
3. Place the cervical traction-table bar in the space between the two lobes.
4. Position the patient according to the traction system’s instructions and the clinician-selected procedure.
5. Confirm that the pillow and traction hardware remain properly positioned before beginning treatment.

The pillow does not determine treatment force, traction angle, or treatment duration. Those parameters belong to the traction equipment and clinical treatment plan.

The RB Traction Pillow uses a black vinyl exterior rather than a removable fabric pillowcase.

For routine care, users to do the following:

• Wipe the surface with soap and water.
• Do not machine wash.
• Do not machine dry.
• Inspect the surface as part of normal equipment-care procedures.

The wipe-clean construction is particularly relevant for physical therapy, chiropractic, and rehabilitation environments where staff may repeatedly use a positioning accessory during the workday.

Core Products notes that polyurethane foam can naturally discolor when exposed to oxygen and light. A slight odor may also be present when the pillow is first removed from its packaging.

If needed, allow the product to air out before initial use.

These characteristics do not change the main purpose of the RB Traction Pillow, which is to provide a defined foam positioning surface under the shoulder and lower-cervical region during compatible traction-table procedures.

Choose the Core Products RB Traction Pillow FOM-112-BK when you already have an appropriate traction workflow and need a compact, durable positioning pillow designed around cervical traction table hardware.

The pillow provides defined shoulder and lower-cervical support, space for the traction-table bar, and a wipe-clean clinical surface.
