Tri-Flex® Wire Rope Slings are three-part slings created to replace large diameter single-part wire rope slings that proved awkward and stiff. Steel erectors, millwrights, and riggers use Tri-Flex® Wire Rope Slings for everything from steel erection or machinery moving to any type of heavy lift. These slings are made in matching lengths. Tri-Flex® Wire Rope Slings provide the best combination of strength and flexibility. Because of the Tri-Flex® sling construction, there is a large savings in material and machine costs in the larger sizes. This, combined with ease of use, makes Tri-Flex® Wire Rope Slings the slings for smart buyers.
