          Wire rope slings made of strong, high quality carbon steel or stainless steel are designed for lifting  and handling balanced and unbalanced loads, which own the great resistance to corrosion, heat, sunlight and most chemicals. One of the advantages of them is that they make a cable laid sling more flexible and resistant to kinking than traditional wire rope configuration, which offer a strong, dependable and economical option for most applications. All of wire rope lifting slings are manufactured with an attached metal tag displaying capacity, care, and instruction for easy and convenient use for customers.

           Wire rope slings for lifting adopt coated plastic as the main material and galvanized finish of wire rope to help lifting slings prevent from abrasion and erosion. And with the aluminum alloy, both in the shoulder, they can avoid sharp wire edges. Especially the single leg type wire rope design, they can be used in a range of hitches and angles. What’s more, wire rope slings are fully equipped sling unit with the latest state of art technology comprising proof load testing machine up to high capacity, hydraulic slicing machine capable of slicing up to various diameter wire rope slings.

            Steel Wire rope slings are several strands of metal wire twisted into a helix that can form into a composite "rope", known as "laid rope" in a pattern. Besides, wire rope slings with large diameter consist of multiple strands of such laid rope. Manufactured by using the premium quality steel wire rope, using the advanced technology and procured from our reliable vendor, They are highly acclaimed by our clients, mainly due to their durability, safety, longevity, corrosion resistance, availability at reasonable prices and so on. They are only as good as their end termination.

           In order to produce a safe and reliable wire rope slings, it involves more than  simply just having a press a length of wore rope and fittings. The popularity of wire rope slings is gradually enhanced by the numerous sling configurations available which includes single and multi-part slings (such as round braids,  flat braids and cable laid slings), grommets, single leg slings, multiple leg bridles, and a wide variety of fittings and attachments to support a broad range of applications. There are various types and different sizes wire rope slings available, and they are custom built to meet your specific needs for any application.

           They are widely applied for lifting boilers, cases and handling unbalanced loads in machinery, metallurgy, construction, upper plates of bridges, shipping, oil field, fishing, floor and roof reinforcement for sports stadiums colliery and ports etc. They are also used as cable for special  bridges and for the maintenance of bridges, and used widely for building wall boards, sea oil platforms, stairs and many tube porch products and other industrial  fields.

           They are also called 4 legs wire rope slings, stainless steel wire rope slings, galvanized/galvanized rope cargo lifting slings or lifting tools, endless wire rope slings, four leg bridle wire rope slings, PA coated steel wire rope sling, PVC coated steel wire rope sling, copper wire rope slings, solid pressed thimble wire rope slings, eye-eye wire rope slings, steel wire rope lifting slings, extra soft grommet slings, flat rope slings, stay cables with swaging sockets and slings with clamps for lifting plates.

2.Surface treatment

           Wire rope slings adopt electro galvanizing or others.

3,Bearing point

           Length of wire rope slings are from bearing point to bearing point.

4.Sizes

            We can customize various kinds of rigging according to customers’ requirement. Usually, the minimum circumference S of the sling is 50 times the wire rope diameter and the bending radius must be not less than 4 times of the wire rope  diameter. The zone between the clamps can’t be bent under lifting force and the length is intended to be the dimension measured between the bearing points of the slings and the measured length of a ferrule-secured sling shall not differ from the nominal length by more than two rope diameters or 1% of the nominal length.

5. Eye｜Socket
           There are various sockets available such as open socket, closed socket and others. Also, the eye type include Flemish eye, pressed soft eye, spliced eye, thimble eye, standard eye, hard eye at both end.

Four types of eyes

6. Hitches
           There are three basic hitches including vertical hitches, choker hitches and basket hitches.
           ①Vertical hitches are made directly from the crane hook to the load. Full rated capacity of the slings may be used but never exceeded. A tagline should be attached to prevent rotation which can damage the sling. A sling with a hand-tucked splice can’t lay and fail if the sling is allowed to rotate.
           ②Choker hitches reduce lifting capability of a sling, since this method of rigging affects the ability of the wire rope components to adjust during the lift, places angular loading on the body of the sling, and creates a small diameter bend in the body at the choke point.
           ③Basket hitches distribute a load equally between the two legs of a sling. Rated capacities are influenced by sling angles.

8.  Cautions
           If you come into the following conditions, you have to take the sling replacement for consideration
           ①For strand laid and single part slings, ten randomly distributed broken wires in one rope lay, or five broken wires in one strand in one rope lay.
           ②For cable laid and braided slings of less than 8 parts, twenty randomly distributed broken wires in one lay or braid, or on broken strand per sling.
           ③Severe localized abrasion or scraping, kinking, crushing, bird caging or any other damage  resulting in distortion of the wire rope structure.
           ④Evidence of heat damage or if a wire rope sling having a fiber core is exposed to temperatures  in excess of 200° F or if a wire rope sling having a steel core is used at  temperatures above 400° F or below minus 60° F.
           ⑤Corrosion of the rope or end attachments or not laying and opening up of a tucked splice. Also, when  end attachments that are cracked, deformed, or worn.
           ⑥Deformation—any visibly apparent bend or twist from the plane of the unbent hook. Throat opening—any distortion will cause an increase in throat opening of 5% not to exceed capacity.
           ⑦Avoid twists, kinks and knots before lifting, store wire rope slings where they will not be subjected to dirt, moisture, extreme heat, corrosion or mechanical damage.
           ⑧Protect the sling body against sharp edges and corners of loads, protrusions or abrasive surfaces. Sharp bends can distort wire rope and reduce its strength.
           ⑨Never "shock load" wire rope slings, the actual force caused by a sudden application of load can easily exceed rated capacities and damage slings and abruptly releasing a load can also damage the slings.
