Slings

A sling is a device used to lift or support heavy objects safely, often made of strong materials like fabric, chain, or wire rope. They form a loop around the load, distributing weight evenly to prevent damage or slipping. Slings are commonly used in industries like construction, shipping, and manufacturing to move large, bulky items. Different types—such as web slings, chain slings, and wire rope slings—are chosen based on the load’s weight, shape, and operating environment. Proper use and inspection of slings are essential for safe lifting operations.
