About Sling Configurations and Capacity

Flat-Eye Web Slings

Also known as Type 3 slings, the eyes lie in a flat position for easy removal from beneath loads.

Eyeless Web Slings

Also known as Type 5 and endless slings, these slings last longer than other web slings with eyes because they can be rotated to change the load-bearing point.

Twisted-Eye Web Slings

Also known as Type 4 slings, the eyes are turned 90° so they can form a choker configuration more easily than with flat-eye slings.

Extra-Wide Basket Slings

Also known as cargo slings, these wide slings provide extra stability and balance when lifting bulky loads.

Web Sling Protectors

Increase the life of slings by positioning these protectors over areas prone to wear.

Web Slings with Fittings

Chain Slings

The chain provides strength and ruggedness to withstand harsh working conditions.

Wire Rope Slings

These slings are more abrasion and cut resistant than web and round slings, yet lighter in weight than mesh and chain slings.

Round Slings

Stronger and more wear resistant than web slings, these slings are made of cords encased in a sleeve.

Rope Slings

Made of abrasion- and chemical-resistant Dyneema, these slings are a lightweight alternative to wire rope slings.

Mesh Slings

Made of galvanized steel mesh to be more cut and abrasion resistant than web or round slings, yet maintain the flexibility to conform to a load.

Drum Slings

These two-leg slings stack steel drums vertically and horizontally.
