2 SINGLE PART SLINGS Eyes are typically formed using a flemish eye splice. The ends are secured by pressing a metal sleeve over the ends of the strands of the splice. Pull follows a direct line along the center of the rope and eye. Single part body mechanical splice slings have a higher rated capacity than hand-spliced slings.

BRAIDED SLINGS Super-Flex 9 Large capacity 9-part XIP wire rope slings Flexibility and handling ease for rigging large lifts are the main benefits of the 9-part slings.

8 BRAIDED SLINGS Super-Flex 9 Large capacity 9-part XIP wire rope slings Flexibility and handling ease for rigging large lifts are the main benefits of the 9-part slings. The 9-part sling is made by laying wire rope continuously through both eyes and the sling body. This results in a body formed with nine parts. The proven design provides internal adjustment to distribute the load among all nine parts of the sling body. Additionally, the construction makes it possible to more easily inspect all parts of the sling before and after each lift, which is important to remember if the sling is to be used many times. Only two splices occur in the entire sling where the two rope ends are spliced at the eyes. A 9-part sling construction exhibits constructional stretch of approximately.% on the first loading and a lesser amount thereafter. For this reason, lifts that use two or more legs should always be made with legs that have been subjected to the same past usage when such stretch may affect the lift. When a sling body must conform to a tight choke hitch or must bend in a tight radius, such as around a pin or post, a 9-part construction may be the most suitable since it can develop greater lifting capacity from a smaller component rope. 9 ( ) Single Leg Choker RATED CAPACITY (Tons*) - Leg Choker Hitch 0 0 Alloy Oblong Link D L W Hook No. /.... / / / / 7/.7.7 -/ 7 IPS_IWRC / 0 -/ Visit:
