RISK MANAGEMENTOur products are often used in work environments that can be dangerous. Although

total elimination of risk is all but impossible, it can be managed. By definition, risk

management is a comprehensive set of actions which reduces the risk of a problem,

a failure, or an accident. We refer to this set of actions as a basic rigging plan. The

following is a list of questions requiring answers prior to making any lift.

The Basic Rigging PlanWho is responsible (competent) for the rigging?

Are communications established?

Is the equipment the appropriate type?

Is the equipment properly identified?

Is the equipment in acceptable condition?

Are the working load limits adequate?

What is the weight of the load?

Where is the center of gravity?

What is the sling angle?

Will there be any angular or side loading?

Are slings padded from sharp edges?

Will the load be under control?

Is the load rigged to the center of gravity?

Is the hitch appropriate?

Is a tag line needed?

Is there any possibility of fouling?

Is the pathway clear of obstruction?

Are all personnel clear of the load?

Are there any unusual loading or environmental conditions?

Are there any other special requirements?

This catalog is designed to familiarize our customers with some of the

information required to answer these questions and formulate a rigging plan.

SLING APPLICATION

HitchesEvery lift uses one of three basic hitches:

1. Vertical The vertical, or straight, attachment is simply using a sling to connect

a lifting hook or other device to a load. Full rated load of the sling may be used,

but never exceeded. A tagline should be used on such a lift to prevent rotation,

which can damage the sling. A wire rope sling with a hand-tucked splice can

unlay and fail if the sling is allowed to rotate.

2. Choker Choker Hitch configurations reduce the rated capacity of a sling by

20 to 25 percent. If a load is hanging free, the normal choke angle is

approximately 135. When the choke angle is less than 120, an adjustment in

the choker rated capacity must be made (see illustration below). Extreme care

should be taken to determine the choke angle as accurately as possible.

As indicated in the table below, the decrease in rated capacity is dramatic.

3. Basket Basket hitches distribute a load equally between the two legs of a

sling, within limitations imposed by the angles at which legs are rigged to the

load (see discussion of sling angles).

Angle AdjustmentRated capacity adjustment for slings in choker hitchwhen angle is less than 120. Choke angles greaterthan 135 are unstable and should not be used.

A basket hitch has twice the capacity of a single legonly if legs of sling are vertical. and only if D/d ratio is25:1 and it is vertical. D/d > 25:1 per ANSI B30.9.

Sling AngleSling Angle (also called angle of loading) is the

angle measured between a horizontal plane and

the sling leg or body. This angle is very important

and can have a dramatic effect on the rated

capacity of the sling (see illustration below). As

illustrated at right, 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 multilegged bridle slings. Sling

angles of less than 30 shall not be used.

Angles and StressHow do you carry two buckets of water? Theseillustrations typify the stresses imposed on slings whenthe legs are attached to the load at various angles.

ReevingReeving through connections to load increases load on

connections fitting by as much as twice.

Do not reeve!

Triple and Quad Leg SlingsTriple leg slings have 50% more capacity than double leg only

if the center of gravity is in center of connection points and the legs

are adjusted properly (equal share of the load).

Quad leg slings offer improved stability but do not provide

increased lifting capacity.

CENTER OF GRAVITY (COG)The location of the center of gravity to the pick points is an

important consideration.

COG and Sling LoadingWhen lifting vertically, the load will be shared equally if the

center of gravity is spaced equally between the pick points, as in the

first illustration at right. If the weight of the load is 10,000 lbs., then

each sling will have a load of 5,000 lbs. and each shackle and eyebolt

will also have a load of 5,000 lbs.

When the center of gravity is not equally spaced between the

pick points, as in the second illustration, the slings and fittings will

not carry an equal share of the load. The sling connected to the pick

point closest to the center of gravity will carry the greatest share of

the load. Sling 2 is closest to COG. It will have the greatest share of

load.

Sling 2 = 10,000 x 8 / (8+2) = 8,000

Sling 1 = 10,000 x 2 / (8+2) = 2,000

SLING INSPECTIONPROGRAMBased on ASME B30.92003

The inspection process for slings is one

requiring ongoing effort from the time a product

arrives until it has been deemed unfit for use. The

following is a breakdown for the types of

inspection required.

Types of Inspection:

(a) Initial Inspection. Before using any new or

repaired sling, it shall be inspected to ensure

that the correct sling is being used, as well as

to determine that the sling meets ASME

standards.

(b) Frequent Inspection. This inspection should

be made by the person handling the sling each

day the sling is used.

(c) Periodic Inspection. conducted by designated

personnel. Frequency of inspection should be

based on:

(1) frequency of sling use

(2) severity of service conditions

(3) experience gained of the service life of

slings used in similar appliactions

Periodic inspections should be conducted at

least annually with a written record of each

slings condition, utilizing the identification

for each sling as established by the user.

Initial and frequent inspections are relatively straightforward in terms of how

often they are done. Periodic inspection is required a minimum of once a year. You may

want to perform written inspections more frequently and track rejection rates until a

baseline can be established and goals can be set. If a good job is done on the frequent

inspections, you may find that an annual periodic is sufficient.

ASME B30.9 requires tagging of all slings. The inspection process should begin with

making sure that each sling has proper identification. The criteria for inspection can be

found on the following pages. A sample survey sheet is also included.

Synthetic Web SlingsInspection: Each day before and during use where service conditions warrant, the

sling and all attachments shall be inspected by a competent person and removed from

service if damage or defects such as the following are visible:

1. Missing or illegible rated capacity tag

2. Cuts, snags, holes punctures, or tears in any part of the webbing

3. Excessive abrasive wear

4. Broken or worn threads in the stitching

5. Melting or charring in any part of the sling

6. Acid or caustic burns

7. Broken, cracked, distorted, pitted, or corroded fittings

8. Any modification or alteration such as knots or tying slings together

9. Other conditions, including visual damage, that cause doubt as to the continued use

of the sling

Alloy Chain SlingsInspection: It is important to inspect slings regularly. Clean slings so that marks,

nicks, wear, and other conditions can be seen. Each chain link and component should

be individually inspected for the following conditions:

1. Missing or illegible tag

2. Twists or bends

3. Nicks or gouges

4. Excessive wear at bearing points (refer to wear allowance chart

5. Cracks

6. Stretch

7. Evidence of heat damage

8. Distorted, worn, or damaged master links, coupling links, or attachments, especially

spread in throat opening of hooks


of the sling

Each link or component having any condition listed above is to be marked with

paint to plainly indicate rejection and removed from service until properly repaired.

Wire Rope SlingsInspection: No precise rules can be given for the determination of the exact time

for replacement of a sling since many variable factors are involved. Safety in this

respect depends largely upon the use of good judgement of an appointed person in

evaluating remaining strength in a used sling after allowance for deterioration disclosed

by inspection. Safety of sling operation depends on this remaining strength.

Conditions such as the following should be sufficient for questioning sling safety

and for consideration of replacement:

1. Ten randomly distributed broken wires in one rope lay, or five broken wires in one

strand in one rope lay

2. Wear or scraping of one-third the original diameter of outside individual wires

3. Kinking, crushing, bird caging, or any other damage resulting in distortion of the rope

structure

4. Evidence of heat damage

5. End attachments that are cracked, deformed, or worn

6. For hooks, removal criteria as stated in ASME B30.10

7. Corrosion of the rope or end attachments

8. Missing or illegible tag


of the sling

Synthetic Round SlingsInspection: Before each lift, inspect the sling for the following signs of damage.

If any are present, remove the sling from service.

1. Missing or illegible identification tag

2. Melting, charring, or weld splatter on any part of the sling

3. Holes, tears, cuts, abrasive wear, or snags that expose the core yarns

4. Knotting

5. Acid or alkali burns


of the sling

Wire Mesh SlingsInspection: Remove the sling from service if

any of the following is visible:

1. A broken weld or brazed joint along the sling

edge

2. A broken wire in any part of the mesh

3. Reduction in wire diameter of 25% due to

abrasion or 15% due to corrosion

4. Lack of flexibility due to deterioration of the

mesh

5. Visible distortion or wear of either end fitting

6. Cracked end fitting

7. Other conditions, including visual damage,

that cause doubt as to the continued use of

the sling

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

Chemical EnvironmentsChemically active environments, such as acids and caustics, can affect the strength

of slings. The sling manufacturer should be consulted before slings are used in such

environments.

Prolonged exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light adversely affect the strength

of nylon and polyester. Slings become bleached and stiff.

OPERATING PRACTICES1. Determine the weight of the load. The weight

of the load shall be within the rated capacity

of the sling.

2. Select a sling of suitable type and material for

the load, hitch, and environment.

3. Slings that appear to be damaged shall not be

used unless inspected and accepted.

4. Slings shall be hitched in a manner that

provides control of the load and prevents load

slippage.

5. Slings shall not be loaded in excess of the

rated capacity. Consideration shall be given to

the sling to load angle which affects rated

capacity (see load chart).

6. Slings with fittings which are used as a choker

hitch shall be of sufficient length to assure

that the choking action is on the webbing

and never on a fitting.

7. The opening in fittings shall be the proper

size and shape to insure that the fitting will

seat properly in the hook or other

attachments.

8. Slings equipped with metal fittings shall not

be dropped.

9. Slings shall be protected from being damaged by sharp corners, sharp edges,

protrusions, or abrasive surfaces.

10. Slings shall not be dragged on the floor or over abrasive surfaces.

11. Slings shall not be twisted, tied in knots, or joined by knotting.

12. During lifting, with or without a load, personnel shall be alert for possible snagging

or bumping.

13. Shock loading shall be avoided.

14. The slings legs shall contain or support the load from the sides above the center of

gravity when using a basket hitch.

15. Slings shall be long enough so that the rated capacity of the sling is adequate when

the angle of the legs is taken into consideration (see load chart).

16. Personnel, including portions of the human body, shall be kept from between the

sling and the load, and from the sling and the lifting hook.

17. Personnel shall stand clear of loads about to be lifted and stand clear of suspended

loads.

18. Personnel shall not ride the sling.

19. Personnel shall stand clear of a sling under tension. The sudden release of tension

due to failure of the sling, a fitting, or attachment can cause the sling to recoil with

lethal force.

20. Slings shall not be pulled from under a load with the load resting on the sling. Place

blocks under the load prior to setting down the load to allow the removal of the

slings.

21. Nylon and Polyester slings shall not be used at temperatures above 194 Fahrenheit

(90 C).

22. Exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light degrades the strength of slings. Store slings

in a cool, dry, and dark place when not in use.

Additional requirements and safe operating practices are outlined in current OSHA and

ANSI/ASME B30.9 and/or other regulations as applicable.

Single Part Body,Mechanical SpliceThe eye or loop end preparation is formed

using the Flemish Eye Splice. This splice is then

secured by swaging a metal sleeve over the strang

ends, at the junction of the splice. There are no

exposed wires and serving is not required.

The swaged metal sleeve flows around the

wires and prevents the strands from unlaying.

Depending on the application, the sleeve can be

steel, aluminum, or stainless steel.

A single part, mechanical splice sling is

economical, offers the highest rated capacity of any

spliced sling, and loads are applied along the center

line of the sling.

CAUTION: Refer to Introduction: Sling Application.

Flemish Eye Splice

The Flemish Eye is spliced by unlaying one-half of the strands from the other half andthe core. The two halves are joined at thebearing point of the eye and laid back in theopposite direction. The final step is to securethe strands with a metal sleeve.

Single Part Body, Hand SpliceThe eye or loop end preparation is formed

using the Tapered Eye Hand Splice. This splice does

not require a metal sleeve to secure the eye. When

the splice is both Tapered and Concealed, there are

no exposed wires and serving is not required. When

the splice is Tapered and the strand ends are

trimmed with a torch, serving may be requested.

The Single Part, Hand Splice sling provides

more flexibility than a Mechanical Splice sling of

equal diameter and has a narrower profile for fitting

through tight spaces.

Single Part, Hand Splice slings with a diameter

through 112 are made using the Tapered and

Concealed Hand Splice. Diameters larger than 112

are made using the Burnt End Hand Splice.


Tapered Eye Splice

The Tapered Eye Hand Splice is made by form-ing a loop, unlaying the strands in the tail,and tucking the strands back into the slingbody. The strand ends are either concealed in-side the sling body or are left exposed andtrimmed with a torch.

WARNING: Hand Spliced slings should not beused in lifts where the sling is free to rotate andunlay the sling body.

Cable Laid Body,Mechanical SpliceCable Laid Slings are fabricated from a

machine made rope comprised of seven wire ropes.

The cable laid body is typically 7x7x7 or 7x7x19

construction. These slings are used where flexibility

and resistance to kinking and setting are more

important than resistance to abrasion. Since the

rope is made up of many smaller wire ropes, the

slings can bend around smaller diameters without

taking a permanent set or kink. The many small

wires are susceptible to abrasion.

Due to their construction, cable laid slings are

normally mechanically spliced. The rated capacity

adjustment Table 1 for choker hitches applies to

cable laid slings as well.


Flemish Eye Splice

The Flemish Eye is spliced by unlaying one-half of the strands from the other half andthe core. The two halves are joined at thebearing point of the eye and laid back in theopposite direction. The final step is to securethe strands with a metal sleeve.

Multi Part Body,BraidMulti-part slings are flexible, snug up

tightly around the load in choker hitches,

and quickly regain shape after a lift.

They also offer outstanding handling

characteristics, particularly in larger rated

capacities. When loaded, stress is equally

distributed to all rope parts in the sling

body due to the helical manner in which

ropes are laid together.

Braided slings are formed by

continuously plaiting, or braiding, several

ropes together to form the sling body and

both eyes in a single fabrication operation.

Ends of individual ropes are usually hand-

tucked or mechanically spliced into

component ropes of the body. Eyes are

wrapped and given a rubberized coating

since eyes are not braided.

Braided slings are often selected

where loads must be rolled or maneuvered,

since the design creates friction to grip

loads and resists rotation.

GROMMETSGrommets are a unique type of sling which form a con-

tinuous loop. Several types are available, such as strand

laid hand tucked, strand laid mechanical, cable laid hand

tucked, and cable laid mechanical. The splice area should

not come into contact with the load or the lifting device.

A minimum inside circumference of 96 body diameters is

recommended. Since a grommet is a continuous circle, it

is very important to consider D/d ratio. The D/d ratio must

be applied to the lifting pins as well as to the load.

Strand Laid,HandTuckedA Strand Laid Hand

Tucked Grommet is made

from one continuous length

of strand. No sleeves are used

to make the joint. This results

in a very smooth circular

sling.

Strand Laid,Mechanical SpliceStrand Laid Mechanical Splice Grommets

are made from one continuous length of wire

rope joined by pressing or swaging one or

more sleeves over the rope juncture. This type

of grommet is not as smooth as the hand

tucked version. An advantage is that the

swaged sleeves give clear indication of the

splice area.

Ratedcapacities based on design factor of5. Horizontal sling angles less than30 shall not be used. All capacitiesare based on new and unused slings.

Zinc or Resin Poured SocketsZinc or Resin Poured Sockets have traditionally

been the end attachment method used to

determine the actual breaking strength of a rope.

Therefore, their efficiency in a breaking strength

test is established to be 100% for all grades and

constructions of wire rope. The efficiency of all

other end terminations are established by

comparison to zinc or resin poured sockets.

Steel forgings are used for rope sizes 1/2

through 112 and cast steel fittings for larger sizes.

Assembly length is measured from centerline of pin

for open sockets and bearing point for closed

sockets.

Swage SocketsCold swaging is a process which causes

considerable movement and work hardening of the

steel in the fitting. Exerting extreme pressures, the

swaging machine forces the steel to flow into the

crevices between the wires and strands of the wire

rope. At the same time, the swaging machine forces

the material to flow plastically along the length of

the wire rope.

Swaged sockets are interchangeable with

poured sockets up through 2 rope diameters.

Assembly length is measured from centerline of pins

for both open and closed sockets.

Extra Heavy WireRope ThimblesThese thimbles provide long service

life and greater protection against wear

and deformation of the wire rope eye.

Available in hot dip galvanized or stainless

steel. Stainless steel recommended for more

corrosive environments where greater

protection is required.

G-414All dimensions are in inches.

* SS-414 size available in stainless steel type 304.

Slip-Thru ThimblesDesigned to allow passage of an identical thimble through its eye. This is a necessity

when a regular sling is used as a choker sling. Slip-thru thimbles also prevent the eye of the

sling from mashing together and the top of the eye wearing excessively. The generous inside

dimensions allow the thimbles to fit large crane hooks. Rope retention ears are tapered so they

can be bent or peened over wire rope.
