Liftex® / BS300PD / 5-Gallon Premium Bucket Sling / 300 lbs. WLL

Benefits:

• Built Tough: Pro-Edge protection reduces frequent replacement by reducing risk of cuts, abrasion, & wear that commonly begins at the edge of slings.
• Higher Capacity: Compared to the standard 200 lbs. WLL, Liftex® 5-gallon bucket slings are rated 50% higher at 300 lbs. WLL. 
• Abrasion Wear Pads: abrasion wear pads where the damage occurs most - at the bottom & around the rim of the bucket - to ensure your bucket sling lasts as long as the job. Does your bucket sling have added protection?. 
• Safely Lift Buckets: Lifting a bucket by the metal handle can be risky, especially if the handle or bucket is overloaded. Liftex® 5-Gallon Bucket Sling provides a safe & secure solution for transfers of supplies & tools for contractors, mechanics, and anyone who needs reliable gear by their side.
• Polyester Material: Polyester has no such Ultimate Break Strength (UBS) reduction due to Saturation (water), whereas Nylon UBS is reduced by 10-15%. Most construction projects experience rain water at some point. Choose Polyester for the same reason all Marine Slings use Polyester - safer and lengthen the lifetime of your purchase.
