WIDE-LIFT SLINGS

Wide-Lift (WL) Slings

All Wide-Lift Slings offer these benefits:
Promotes Safety
Wide Load Support and Balance
Red Core Yarn warning system aids in the inspection
   process
Tuff-Tag provides serial numbered identification for
   traceability
Proven sling web construction
Wide-Lift slings support the load over a wide area
to offer better balance for large loads - whether heavy
or light. Wide bearing area reduces marring of soft load
surfaces. Stiffeners are used at the base of the eyes to
deter the body webbing from folding down the middle.
Wide-Lift slings are for use in basket hitch only.
Standard web material is Webmaster 1600 nylon.
Polyester is available upon request.
Saves Money
Wide bearing area reduces marring of soft load
   surfaces
Yellow treatment for abrasion resistance and extended
   sling life
Tuff-Tag provides required OSHA information for
   the life of the sling, not just the life of the tag

For Light, Bulky Loads - Lifting eyes are attached to a
single ply sling body. Available with One Ply eyes
(WLA1) or Two Ply eyes (WLA2).
For Heavy Loads - Constructed from one endless sling
with the two body lengths butted and joined side by side.

Note: Not recommended for use in a choker hitch.
Tuff-Edge II may be used for the attached eyes.
Custom slings with higher capacities are available.
* Do not exceed rated capacities. Sling capacity decreases
as the angle from horizontal decreases. Slings should
not be used at angles of less than 30°.
Refer to Effect of Angle chart on bottom of page.

Effect of Angle of Lift on a Sling's Rated Capacity
DEFINITION
serves to alert users to potentially hazardous situations which often occur in the use of these products.
Failure to read, understand and follow the accompanying instructions on how to avoid these situations
could result in death or serious injury.

Using slings at an angle can become deadly if that angle is not taken into consideration when selecting the sling to
be used. The tension on each leg of the sling is increased as the angle of lift, from horizontal, decreases. It is most
desirable for a sling to have a larger angle of lift, approaching 90°. Lifts with angles of less than 30° from horizontal
are not recommended. If you can measure the angle of lift or the length and height of the sling as rigged, you can
determine the properly rated sling for your lift.
What would be the rating of each sling
rigged at this angle?
choker hitch vertical hitch What capacity sling do I need?
1. Determine the weight that the sling
    will be lifting [LW].
1. Calculate the Reduction Factor [RF].
a. Using the angle from horizontal,
    read across the Angle Chart to the
    corresponding number of the
    Reduction Factor column.
2. Calculate the Tension Factor [TF].
a. Using the angle from horizontal,
    read across the angle chart to the
    corresponding number of Tension
    Factor column.

b. Divide sling height* [H] by sling
    length* [L].

b. Divide sling height* [H] by sling

2. Reduction Factor [RF] x the sling's
    rated capacity for the type hitch that
    will be used = Sling's Reduced Rating.

3. Lifting Weight [LW] x the Tension
    Factor [TF] = Minimum Sling Rating
    for the type of hitch that will be used.

Example:
Vertical Choker rating of each sling = 6,000 lbs.
Measured Length (L) = 6 ft.
Measured Height (H) = 4 ft.
Reduction Factor (RF) = 4 (H) ÷ 6 (L) = .667
Reduced sling rating in this configuration = .667
(RF) x 6,000 lbs. = 4,000 lbs. of lifting capacity
per sling

Example:
Load Weight = 1,000 lbs.
Rigging - 2 slings in vertical hitch
Lifting Weight (LW) per sling = 500 lbs.
Measured Length (L) = 10 ft.
Measured Height (H) = 5 ft.
Tension Factor (TF) = 10 (L) ÷ 5 (H) = 2.0
Minimum Vertical Rated Capacity required
for this lift = 500 (LW) x 2.0 (TF) = 1,000
lbs. per sling

Sling capacity decreases as the angle
from horizontal decrease. Sling angles
of less than 30° are not recommended.
