The High Strength 8T Round Lifting Sling Soft Polyester Webbing Strap is a durable and reliable lifting solution designed for heavy-duty applications. Here are its key features and specifications:
Key Features:
Material: Made from high-tenacity polyester webbing, offering excellent strength, flexibility, and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and UV rays.
Load Capacity: Rated for 8 metric tons (8,000 kg / 17,637 lbs), making it suitable for heavy lifting in construction, rigging, towing, and industrial applications.
Design: Endless round sling configuration provides 360° load-bearing capability and reduces edge pressure on delicate loads.
Soft & Protective: The polyester webbing is gentle on surfaces, preventing damage to painted or fragile items.
Safety Factor: Typically meets or exceeds a 5:1 safety ratio (depending on manufacturer standards).
Flexibility: Lightweight and easy to handle, with excellent load distribution.
Color Coding: Often color-coded (e.g., purple for 8T) for quick identification of capacity.
Common Applications:
Lifting heavy machinery, pipes, or construction materials
Rigging and hoisting in marine, oil & gas, and manufacturing
Securing loads during transport
Automotive and towing applications
Advantages Over Chain or Wire Rope Slings:
Lighter weight and easier to handle
No sharp edges, reducing damage risk
Non-conductive (safer near electrical hazards)
Better load grip due to soft webbing
Safety Tips:
Always inspect for cuts, abrasions, or chemical damage before use.
Avoid sharp edges or abrasive surfaces; use edge protectors if needed.
Do not exceed the Working Load Limit (WLL).
Store in a dry, cool place away from UV exposure and chemicals.
