Twin-Path® Heavy Lift Slings
Twin-Path® high-performance synthetic roundslings have Check-Fast® Inspection overload indicators,Covermax® Covers for superior abrasion resistance, and inner red covers as an aid to inspection. Twin-Path® slings are used worldwide in place of steel rigging for heavy lifts. They are approximately 10% of the weight of a steel sling and are repairable. The Twin-Path® sling design, which has two individual paths of fiber working as one sling, gives the rigger confidence. These slings have less than 1% elongation at rated capacity. If productivity, safety, and precision are important, then Twin-Path® high-performance roundslings are your best choice. Independent testing shows that K-Spec® core yarn is the longest lasting load-bearing core yarn in any sling.
The table below is a sample representation of our Twin-Path® slings at a 5:1 Design Factor (DF)/ Safety Factor (SF). Capacities up to 4000 Te MBL and other DF/SF Twin-Path® products are available. Please call, email, or utilize our “Contact Us” form for special requests.
| Note: Capacities shown include both paths and are for one complete sling. Sling ratings based on commercial fittings of equal or greater capacity.
