Web slings are great for lifting applications requiring a lightweight and versatile solution.
They can be used in various configurations, including vertical lifts, choke lift, or basket grip to accommodate any need you may have!
The primary use of web slings is for lifting loads where chains may be too bulky for the job. By using a sling you are giving yourself plenty of options and we stock certified slings that can be used in a number of different ways.
Slings set up in a basket lift configuration provide a stable strong lift and when the web slings legs are at 90° you get the same lift setup as chains that would normally require two lifting devices and a spreader bar.
The load is cradled by the slings with both eyes attached above. You may need more than one sling of the same length to perform this lift and ensure load control.
When you set up a vertical hitch you can utilise the full lifting capacity of the sling.
One end of the sling is attached directly to the load and the other to the lifting hook.
You will need to use a tagline with this setup to prevent load rotation
if you use web slings in a choke lift configuration you need to be aware that you will reduce the load capacity of the sling down to about 75% of its capacity.
Another point to note here is to always make sure the hitch tight before you attempt any lift.
