Holloway Houston Web Slings

Holloway Flat Nylon Web Slings

A flat web sling is a synthetic sling made from woven nylon webbing with sewn eyes at each end. The flat profile makes web slings easier to handle than chain and wire rope, and nylon's ability to absorb shock loads without permanent deformation is well-suited to the variable dynamics of overhead crane picks.

Holloway Houston manufactures web slings per ASME B30.9 (Slings) and WSTDA WS-1 (Web Slings). Every sling carries a permanently attached ID tag showing the serial number, working load limit, and material. Color coding follows the WSTDA standard: nylon slings are green on the tag and label.

Width, Ply, and WLL Options

Holloway web slings are available in the following width and ply combinations. WLL increases with width and number of plies.

The Holloway web sling line covers standard industrial WLL ranges across 1- to 4-ply configurations and widths from 3-inch to 12-inch. Length options run from 6 feet to 20 feet. contact us for exact WLL ratings per size and ply.

Where Holloway Web Slings Are Used

• General Industry - Material handling in manufacturing plants, warehouses, and distribution centers where hook-to-load connections need a soft sling.

• Construction Sites- Rigging structural steel, precast components, and mechanical equipment during crane operations.

• Oil and Gas- Below-the-hook lifting in refineries and petrochemical plants where nylon's chemical resistance matters.

• Fabrication- Positioning and turning parts during production without marking finished surfaces.

• Maintenance Lifting- Plant turnaround and maintenance work where versatility and fast setup time are priorities.

Sling Inspection and Retirement

Web slings are synthetic slings governed by ASME B30.9. Conditions that generally warrant removal from service include cuts or tears to the webbing, abraded or broken load yarns, heat damage, chemical deterioration, distorted end fittings, and missing or illegible ID tags. Holloway Houston inspection specialists can assess sling condition on-site and document findings.
