One of the most successful and popular offerings by Holloway Houston, Silverback Slings by Holloway are lightweight synthetic slings made to withstand large loads. Designed to offer exceptional performance under grueling conditions, they are capable of lifting loads anywhere from 8 tons to 600 tons at 5:1 ratio.
From hard items to fragile ones, you can use Silverback Slings by Holloway to lift any load. Resistant to physical and chemical abrasions, and exhaustion, these slings have become an industry standard. However, keeping with its tradition to provide the users with products made using the latest technology and performance specifications, Holloway Houston has relaunched Silverback Slings by Holloway as Silverback Slings.
Made with Honeywell Spectra® fibers, Silverback Slings are better and enhanced series of new-generation lifting slings made from space-age materials and high-tech design processes.
Most conventional roundslings, wire ropes, and braided ropes generally require reasonably large and fixed diameters in relation to the lifting potential. However, Silverback Slings offer superior rigging efficiency compared to their traditional counterparts.
Unlike braided ropes or helically-laid stranded yarns, Silverback Slings use a unique oversized triple cover with a parallel laid yarn inside. It allows you to reshape the slings, making them fit perfectly on the load-bearing surfaces.
Silverback Slings have a design factor of 5:1 (ultimate = 5 times rated load). These slings are rated in tons. Users are advised to not exceed the rated capacity to avoid potential accidents.
To achieve the loads it was designed for, the Silverback Sling System needs to have a minimum of a 3:1 D/d ratio. In other words, the size of the pin around which the slings goes must have at least three times the diameter of the sling at the bearing point.
Sling ratings are based on a standard wide-body shackle (or equivalent bearing surface) of equal or greater capacity.
