wire rope cable slings free sample

Wire rope slings are extremely strong and an excellent choice for heavy duty jobs involving not only lifting, but also hoisting, towing, or anchoring loads. The fabrication of wire slings also offers excellent abrasion-resistance and heat resistance so it can be used in extreme conditions and temperatures. Its pliable design can conform to the shape of a load for a more secure application.

Wire rope slings are manufactured in a variety of configurations, with 6x19 and 6x36, being two of the most common. The numbers represent the number of wires making up the strand and the number of strands wrapped around the core. For example, a 6x19 indicates that there are 19 wires making up a strand, and 6 strands are wrapped around the core.

Each steel wire rope configuration will offer different benefits and will be better suited to certain applications. In general, a smaller number of large outer wires offers better wear and corrosion resistance, while a larger number of small wires provides a better level of flexibility and fatigue resistance.

We offer steel wire rope slings in both 6x19 and 6x36 configurations, depending on the diameter of the wire rope. All are in a bright (unfinished) wire rope, but other configurations are available by request. Our cable laid slings are manufactured in a 7x7x7 galvanized wire rope (composed of 7 strands of 7x7 cables), which make them extremely flexible and useful for more specialized applications.

The eye loops on our sling cable are created with a Flemish splice, which is a mechanical splice where the rope cable is separated into two parts (one part has three strands, the other part has the remaining three strands plus the core), then re-laid back in the opposite direction to form the loop. The ends are then secured with a carbon steel sleeve around the entire area. Flemish splices offer the most efficient use of capacity.

The core of the wire rope used in cable slings can be made of several different materials, including steel or natural fibers. Our steel wire rope slings are made with Extra Improved Plowed Steel (EIPS) around an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) for the ultimate in strength and durability.

Our categories of wire rope slings are broken down by number of legs, hardware, and the diameter of the wire rope. Each wire sling is made to order, so custom slings are also always an option if you don"t see what you"re looking for here.

We offer a wide selection of both domestic wire rope slings and import wire rope slings online, with additional options and customization available by calling our sales team.

Import slings are a more cost-effective choice yet offer the same wire rope strength and working load limits as our domestic slings. Our imported slings also feature sleeve components from Crosby. Wire rope slings we import are also available in custom configurations.

Sometimes called eye & eye slings because of an oval "eye" at each end, these 1 leg cable slings are rugged and reliable and a very popular choice among wire slings. The eyes are formed using a Flemish eye splice and secured with a carbon steel sleeve.

Single leg cable slings are available in a variety of styles: Eye & Thimble, Thimble & Thimble, Eye & Hook, Eye & Eye, Sliding Choker, and Cable Laid.

Also known as a 2 leg bridle sling, this sling offers increased versatility over a sling with just a single leg. Manufactured with a Flemish eye that"s spliced with a carbon steel sleeve; end options range from a latched eye hook to a simple eye design. Our 2 leg wire rope slings are available in seven different diameters of rope. Custom options are also an option.

Our 3 leg wire rope slings are also known in the industry as a 3 leg bridle sling. Each is manufactured with a Flemish eye that"s spliced with a carbon steel sleeve for the ultimate in safety and strength. End options include latched eye hooks, eyes equipped with thimbles, and more, as customized options are always available. Our 3 leg wire rope slings are available in seven different diameters of rope.

A 4 leg bridle sling offers the ultimate in versatility. Also known in the industry as wire rope 4 leg bridle slings, ours are manufactured with a Flemish eye that"s spliced with a carbon steel sleeve for an extra measure of security. And because legs can be fitted with hardware of your choosing, from simple eye formations to heavy duty hooks, it results in a sling customized to your exact application needs. Our 4 leg wire rope slings are available in six different diameters of rope.

Braided wire rope slings are formed when multiple wire ropes are braided continuously to form the body of the sling and the eye/eyes into a single fabricated sling. Braided wire slings are excellent for higher capacity lifts and can be either round or flat. One benefit of a braided sling is its ability to conform snugly to a load that"s in a choker hitch. Because of the braided design, they also are better resistant to kinking.

Our braided wire rope slings are made in the USA and available in a variety of configurations, including a 3-part braid, 6-part braid, 8-part braid, and 9-part braid. Several style options are also available, including standard eyes, thimble eyes, and more, to create a customized braided wire rope sling to your specifications.

Wire rope bridles are measured by the length of the sling leg plus the end hook. The length of the oblong master should not be included in the overall measurement.

Our slings are available in a variety of lengths, but can also be customized to any length you need. Give our sales team a call for more information or to place a custom order.

"Slings in contact with edges, corners, protrusions, or abrasive surfaces shall be protected with a material of sufficient strength, thickness, and construction to prevent damage."- ASME B30.9 (2021) 9-5.10.4(d)

All of our slings are inspected, certified and tagged with metal tags displaying rated capacities by hitch types and angles; diameter or size; and name/trademark of the manufacturer.

Proof testing certificates can be supplied with your order for a nominal fee and must be requested at the time of order. Proof tests are performed in the factory where the sling is pull tested to 2x the vertical rating and officially recorded as proof for governing bodies. During the standard manufacturing process, only random slings during a production run are tested for compliance; in order to provide proof testing certificates with your order, every sling must be pull tested at the time of manufacture.

If steel wire rope slings are not the best choice for your application, we also offer chain slings, nylon lifting slings, and polyester round slings in a wide range of styles and capacities. As with all of our lifting slings, customization is always an option.

Domestic steel slings are available in two main configurations, 6x19 and 6x36, depending on the diameter of the wire rope. The numbers represent the number of wires making up the strand and the number of strands wrapped around the core. For example, a 6x19 indicates that there are 19 wires making up a strand, and 6 strands are wrapped around the core.

When choosing domestic cable slings, keep in mind that a smaller number of large outer wires will offer excellent resistance to general wear and corrosion; whereas a larger number of small wires will provide better flexibility and resistance to fatigue.

The core of the wire rope used in cable slings can be made of several different materials, including steel or natural fibers. Our domestic wire rope slings are made with Extra Improved Plowed Steel (EIPS) around an Independent Wire Rope Core (IWRC) for the ultimate in strength and durability.

All of our steel wire rope slings are inspected, certified, and marked with metal tags with the wire rope diameter or size and the name / trademark of the manufacturer. The tags also display rated capacities by hitch types and angles.

All of our made-in-the-USA wire rope slings are manufactured with a Flemish splice to create the eye loops. A Flemish splice is a mechanical splice where the wire rope is separated into two parts (one part has three strands, the other part has the remaining three strands plus the core), then re-laid back in the opposite direction to form an open loop (“eye”). The ends are then secured with a carbon steel sleeve around the entire area. Flemish splices offer the most efficient use of capacity.

Also known as a 2 leg bridle sling, this lift sling offers more versatility than a single leg sling, as well as increased load balance. Ours are manufactured with a latched eye hook on each end and are available in several different diameters of rope.

A sliding choker sling features a hook between the two eyes that slides from one end to the other for easy hook-up. Sliding choker slings are manufactured with a regular eye on one end and a thimble eye on the end of the sling that loops back to attach to the sliding hook.

When measuring a domestic wire rope sling with multiple legs, do not include the oblong master - instead, measure the length of the sling leg to the loadbearing point of the hook or eye.

If you need proof testing certificates for your wire rope slings, please request them at the time of order. Available for a nominal fee, these tests are performed in the factory for reliable results. Each sling is pull-tested to 2x the vertical rating, then the results are officially recorded as proof for governing bodies.

This differs from the standard manufacturing process in that every sling is pull-tested at the time of manufacture. Normally, only random slings during a production run are tested for compliance.

If domestic wire rope lifting slings are not the best choice for your job, we also offer chain slings, nylon lifting slings, high performance round slings, plasma slings, and polyester round slings in a wide range of styles and capacities.

Steel wire rope slings as a basic material handling tool are most frequently used in marine line. Also they offer a strong, dependable and economical option for most lifting applications. Their popularity is enhanced by the numerous sling configurations available to support a broad range of applications. These configurations include single and multi-part slings (such as round braids, flat braids, Tri-Flex and cable laid slings), grommets, single leg slings, multiple leg bridles, and a wide variety of fittings and attachments.

Relative to other types of slings, wire rope slings are average in strength/weight ratio, average in abrasion and cut resistance, poorest in elongation and flexibility, and average for high temperatures (IWRC only).

A mechanical (or flemish) splice sling is most frequently used and is fabricated by unlaying the rope body into two parts, one having three strands, the other having the remaining three strands and core. The rope is unlayed far enough back to allow the eye to be formed by looping one part in one direction and the other part in the opposite direction and laying the rope back together.

The strands are rolled back around the rope body and a metal sleeve is slipped over the ends and pressed (or swaged) to secure the ends to the sling body. A hydraulic swaging press with special dies is used to bond the sleeve in place. Extreme pressure forces the steel sleeve to flow into the voids between the wires and strands, creating an assembly that maintains most of the wire rope"s nominal breaking strength.

NOMINAL SLING STRENGTH is based upon the nominal (catalog) rope strength of the wire rope used in the sling and other factors which affect the overall strength of the sling. These other factors include splicing efficiency, number of parts of rope in the sling, type of hitch (e.g., straight pull, choker hitch, basket hitch, etc.), diameter around which the body of the sling is bent (D/d) and the diameter of pin used in the eye of the sling.

SLING ANGLE is the angle measured between a horizontal line and the sling leg or body. This angle is very important and can have a dramatic effect on the rated capacity of the sling. As illustrated (Figure 2),when this angle decreases, the load on each leg increases. This principle applies whether one sling is used to pull at an angle, in a basket hitch or for multi-legged bridle slings. Sling angles of less than 30 degrees are not recommended.

NOMINAL SPLICE EFFICIENCY is the efficiency of the sling splice. Any time wire rope is disturbed such as in splicing an eye, the strength of the rope is reduced. This reduction must be taken into account when determining the nominal sling strength and in calculating the rated capacity. Each type of splice has a different efficiency, thus the difference in rated capacities for different types of slings. Nominal splice efficiencies have been established after many hundreds of tests over years of testing.

RATED CAPACITY is the maximum static load a sling is designed to lift. The tables give rated capacities in tons of 2000 pounds. Rated capacities contained in all the tables were calculated by computer. Each value was calculated starting with the nominal component rope strength and working up from there. Due to computer rounding of numeric values, rated capacity values for 2, 3 or 4 leg slings may not be even multiples of single leg values and may differ by a small amount. This represents the state-of-the-art technology and tables found in other publications which differ by this small amount should not be construed to be in error. The difference is generally no more than one unit for any sling diameter.
