Details:

• MEDIUM DUTY:
  • Ideal for use with synthetic slings, and can also use wire rope and chain
• HEAVY DUTY:
  • Enhanced durability to withstand high pressure loading from more abrasive wire rope and chain slings
• CAPACITY:
  • Capacity is 12,500 psi/in of sling contact or 12,500 psi of compression capacity
  • 3/4" diameter wire rope sling has contact area of less than 1", meaning capacity of the sling protector will be less than 12,500 psi
  • Capacity is calculated by multiplying 12,500 x the contact area of the sling
  • If contact area of wire rope sling is .5" then the resulting capacity would be:
    • 12,500 psi x .5 = 6,250 psi
  • The above direction is contingent upon having the vertical and horizontal edges of the sling protectors in 100% contact with the load, i.e., in full contact.
