Description
It is a strong, synthetic sling commonly used in various demanding sectors such as construction, manufacturing, logistics, and heavy industry
Features:
- High Working Load Limit : Safely rated for lifting loads up to 20,000 kg (20 tonnes) in a straight pull (vertical hitch). Note that the changes based on the lifting hitch (e.g., choke hitch or basket hitch
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Extremely strong for its comparatively light weight, making it easier to handle, position, and transport than metal slings of similar capacity.
- Flexibility and Softness: The flat webbing conforms well to the shape of the load, reducing the risk of damage, scratching, or marring the surface of delicate or painted items.
- Low Elongation: Polyester material offers minimum stretch, providing better load control and minimizing shock loading problems.
Durability and Resistance:
- Highly resistant to abrasion and wear and tear.
- Unaffected by grease, oils, and most common acids.
- UV-resistant for outdoor applications.
- Safety Factor: Typically manufactured with a high safety factor, often 7:1 (meaning the Minimum Breaking Load is seven times the WLL).
- Compliance: Usually manufactured in accordance with international safety standards such as EN 1492-1 (Europe) or equivalents, ensuring quality and safety.
- Ease of Inspection: The flat design and visible construction make it relatively easy to visually inspect for damage like cuts, abrasion, or compromised stitching.
- Versatility: Can be used in various lifting configurations (vertical, basket, and choker hitches) for different lifting scenarios.
