Wire slings are made of high-strength steel wires and are designed to lift heavy loads with great precision and safety. They are ideal for environments where flexibility, durability, and resistance to wear and tear are required. Wire slings can be used in single-leg, double-leg, or multi-leg configurations, depending on the load and lifting needs. These slings are often used in construction, mining, and manufacturing for lifting heavy machinery, steel beams, and other large objects. Wire slings meet rigorous safety standards, including ASME B30.9 and SASO 2350, to ensure maximum strength and safety.
Key Features:
- High Strength: Capable of lifting heavy loads in demanding applications.
- Versatile Designs: Available in single-leg, double-leg, and multi-leg configurations.
- Flexibility: Offers superior flexibility while maintaining strength.
- Wear Resistance: Wire slings are resistant to abrasion and harsh environmental conditions.
Types and Standards:
- Single-Leg Wire Slings: Ideal for direct lifts.
- Multi-Leg Wire Slings: Used for more complex lifting tasks requiring load balancing.
- **ASME B30.9, SASO 2350: Standards that ensure wire slings meet safety and strength requirements.
Brands Available:
Crosby, Kito, Lift-All, Peerless, and Wire Rope Works are prominent brands offering wire slings for heavy-duty lifting.
General Maintenance:
Regularly inspect the wire slings for broken strands, kinks, or corrosion. Clean the slings after each use and lubricate them to prevent rust. Store slings in a dry, clean environment to prolong their lifespan and prevent damage from exposure to harsh elements.
