Drum Slings
Use these two-leg slings to stack steel drums.
Slings with clamps keep a grip on the drum even when not under load.
Slings with hooks grip the drum as the sling is lifted.
Slings with aluminum-bronze hooks are made of spark-resistant components.
Style C sling has two lifting eyes; use the center eye for horizontal lifts and the other eye for near vertical lifts. It has two fittings on the center eye that allow the length of the sling legs to adjust.
Style D sling has one flexible leg, one rigid bar leg, and two round lifting eyes. Use the center eye for horizontal lifts and the other eye for near vertical lifts.
Style E slings have rigid bar legs.
Style F slings are tightened and locked with a load binder.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
