Eye & Eye Slings are a type of lifting sling made up of two eyes connected by a length of wire rope. The eyes are made from high-quality materials and are designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use. Eye & Eye Slings are used in construction, manufacturing, mining, oil and gas, utilities, and transportation.
Eye & Eye Slings are available in various sizes and materials to meet the application's specific needs. Eye & Eye Slings are made from high-quality materials and are designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use.
When selecting an Eye & Eye Sling, it is crucial to consider the following factors:

Rated capacities of basket hitches are based on 40 times wire rope diameter (1/4″ through 1″ diameter slings) and 25 times wire rope diameter (1-1/8″ and larger diameter slings). Basket ratings are calculated for vertical lifting.
Basket ratings are calculated for vertical lifting. Appropriate reductions must be made when angular lifting is involved.
All slings are proof-tested to 2 times working load limit. Design factor is 5:1.
