- Polyester Round Slings (Endless Lifting Slings) - 1 tonne to 100 tonnes
A polyester webbing round sling has many other name that people in the lifting industry refer to them by, for example as a soft sling or endless lifting sling (because there is no end) as a lifting round strap or webbing or woven sling and many more! Sometimes these slings are wrongly referred to as nylon lifting slings, but polyester slings are far more popular as the industry standard.
About Polyester Round Slings for Lifting
Polyester is a Synthetic man made material that is lightweight and is a certified lifting sling to conform with EN 1492-2:2000 it makes a very cost-effective lifting sling that is soft to the touch and much less likely to cause damage to the material being lifted; it will not cause the type of injuries to the user associated with wire rope sling (cuts caused by broken wires, manual handling or impact injuries). Round lifting slings are more compact and lightweight than both wire rope or chain slings (Dyneema is lighter and stronger) and as a result is much easier to handle.
Fibre round slings are comparatively cheap compared to most alternative lifting slings and tend to be more flexible, lighter, and have a better FOS, the end result being that the customer tends to save money with the purchase and achieves greater productivity from staff operating.
On the negative side, endless slings do have less abrasive resistance though this can be overcome by using a wear sleeve made from either polyester or from polyurethane (round the sling or bonded onto the sling, Secutex for example). Other alternative method to provide sling protection would be to use steel end fitting such as a Joker hook or Grade 80/100 master rings and hooks; or the use of corner protectors, contact us for further alternatives.
Our preference is to supply top quality polyester round lifting slings made in the UK as they are well made and the manufacturer can provide a comprehensive quality and technical service. We carry stocks of 1000kg, 2000kg, 3000kg, 4000kg, 5000kg etc... in many different lengths though also make special polyester endless lifting slings to the customer's specifications up to 100 tonne SWL.
£££ Worth noting...
The lifting sling market is saturated and we are aware that there are other slings available to buy cheaper, but beware these can be of lesser quality. Our slings are top quality, UK manufactured and suitable for industrial purposes where quality and safety is paramount.
Tests have been carried out on 'cheaper' slings that have failed/ripped at a lower loading than the 7:1 factor of safety that the slings MUST be manufactured to (in line with the British Standard 'BS EN 1492-2').
As with most things in life, you get what you pay for, it is just something to bear in mind when trying to save a few £££.
