Chain Slings with Latching Hooks
Latching hooks allow you to quickly release a load. The chain provides strength and ruggedness to withstand harsh working conditions. Slings include a tag that shows chain grade and size, length, and capacities in each configuration.
Grade 100 steel slings are approximately 20% stronger than grade 80 steel.
Note: Do not use slings at an angle less than 30°.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Adjustable Chain Slings
Adjust the chain length and number of legs without changing slings. The chain provides strength and ruggedness to withstand the harshest working conditions.
Style A slings include a tag that shows chain grade and size, length, and capacities in each configuration.
Style B slings have capacities in each configuration stamped on the top link. For vertical configurations, use only one leg and the top eye while the other hangs free.
Note: Do not use slings at an angle less than 45°.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
