Nylon Lifting Sling – Endless – 8″ x 8′ – 2-ply

An 8 inch endless nylon sling is built for larger-scale industrial rigging, where structural components and heavier machinery need more sling surface in contact with the load. As an endless nylon sling, also called an endless flat nylon sling or type 5 lifting sling, it’s a continuous loop formed by joining the webbing ends with a load-bearing splice, so it can be rigged in a vertical, basket, or choker hitch and repositioned to spread out wear. In 2-ply construction, it steps up in capacity from the lightest option while staying easy to handle and reposition.

Key Features

• Continuous loop construction lets you shift the contact point with each use, reducing wear compared to a fixed contact point
• Made in the USA from heavy-duty, 9,800 lbs. per inch industrial grade webbing
• Sewn-in leather tag lists the working load limit for vertical, basket, and choker hitches
• Measured by laying the sling flat end to end, not around its circumference
• Proof-testing certificates available for a fee; must be requested at the time of order

Applications

• Vertical, basket, or choker hitch rigging where sling capacity needs to flex with the hitch type used on the lift
• Jobs where repositioning the contact point between lifts helps an endless nylon sling last longer than a fixed-eye sling would
• Rigging that calls for a nylon endless loop sling, or endless nylon rigging strap, rather than a stiffer, less economical alternative

To measure:

Lay the nylon round sling flat and measure from one end of the sling to the other. Do not measure around the full circumference, as this will result in a finished sling that is twice the intended length.

Sling Proof Testing Certificates

Proof testing certificates are available for a nominal fee and must be requested at the time of your order. For certified proof testing, each sling is individually tested at the factory to twice its rated vertical rating, and the results are formally documented for compliance purposes. Under normal production procedures, only select slings are tested as part of routine quality checks. Because of this, every sling requiring a proof test certificate must be tested individually during manufacturing.
