Web and Round Slings

Web and Round slings are used to lift heavy loads from 1 to 13 tonnes. These lightweight, polyester lifting slings are often preferable to chains or ropes as they are easy to manoeuvre and position between lifting jobs and prevent damage to the goods being lifted. Web and round slings are colour coded to indicate their maximum weight capacity, to ensure ease of identification. Webbing slings are the most popular type of sling used for heavy lifting and have stretchy properties and a wide bearing surface to minimise shock loading problems. Round slings are used in heavier applications, normally where the load exceeds 6 tonnes, they are constructed of load bearing endless loops of yarn covered by a woven tubular jacket. Lifting slings are used in many industrial applications including construction, transport, boat handling and logging. Industrial settings with heavy goods and equipment often mean that lifting is done in potentially dangerous conditions, so choosing the right lifting equipment is vital to minimising risk.
