Flat Webbing Lifting Systems - High Tenacity Polyester, Variable Thickness, Color-coded | Durable Sewn Eyes, Endless Loop, Protective Sleeving

Our Flat Webbing Lifting Slings are made from high tenacity polyester webbing, colour coded for ease of identification for lifting and are manufactured to EN 1492-1:2000. They are available in four basic types: Simplex, Duplex Triplex and Endless.

Simplex Slings are manufactured from single thickness webbing, whereas Duplex slings are manufactured from double thickness webbing and Triplex of Three layers. All are either terminated in a metal end fitting or, more popularly, sewn back upon themselves with a high tenacity Polyester fabric to form a reinforced Eye, which provides greater durability than the traditional leather eye.

The webbing is stitched close to the eyes which are 9" long bearing to bearing. Endless slings, however, are manufactured from single thickness webbing sewn in a continuous loop with an overlap. These slings are mainly used when needing a wide grip on large equipment, e.g. for lifting pipes. In order to protect the webbing from unnecessary wear and tear, various sleeving is available, in any length, which can also protect both the sling and any fragile loads.
