Lifting Sling

Definition of Lifting Sling:

Synthetic lifting slings are widely using in machining, port loading and unloading, shipbuilding. As well as in power installation, transport, aerospace and other fields. In this article, we will explain in detail how to correctly choose Synthetic slings through the following aspects.

Types of Lifting Slings：

There are four main types of lifting sling based on information such as type, material and application scenario.

Webbing Sling:

• Overview: Flat web sling provide a wide, smooth load surface during lifting operations and are particularly suitable for lifting objects with soft surfaces.
• Production range: Rated load 1-40T, effective length 1-100M different specifications and models of synthetic web slings.

Round sling：

• Overview：Round slings, also knowing as encapsulated slings. It compose of two major parts: the sheath and the load-bearing core. The sheath is a wear-resistant tube with casing, woven by the loom, the sheath itself is not load-bearing. And mainly plays the role of protecting the carrier core.
• Production range: rated load 0.5-2000T, effective length 0.5-80M different specifications and models of Synthetic round slings

Wire Rope Slings:

• Strong and durable, used for heavy loads and harsh environments.

Material of lifting sling：

1. Synthetic Materials:
   • Polyester: Resistant to UV, abrasion, and moisture, suitable for delicate loads.
   • Nylon: Offers flexibility and strength, absorbs shocks but less resistant to chemicals.
   • Polypropylene: Lightweight and resistant to chemicals, used in less demanding applications.
2. Wire Rope: Durable and robust, ideal for heavy loads and rough environments like construction and mining.
3. Alloy Steel Chain: Extremely strong and durable, suitable for lifting heavy and irregular loads in harsh conditions.
4. High-Performance Fibers: Such as aramid or HMPE (high-modulus polyethylene), providing high strength and lightweight properties for specialized applications.

Factors for Choosing a Lifting Sling:

1. Load Weight and Size: Match sling capacity to the load.
2. Application Environment: Consider moisture, temperature, and chemical exposure.
3. Sling Material: Select based on load sensitivity and working conditions.
4. Safety Standards: Ensure compliance with ISO, CE, or other certifications.
5. Durability and Inspection Needs: Opt for robust materials for frequent use.
