Pelican Rope King Sling Double Braid Krypton-S Crane Slings
The King Sling uses Krypton-S high-performance fiber in a double-braid construction to create crane slings that rival wire rope in strength while being dramatically lighter and easier to handle. These slings eliminate the risk of wire rope "meat hooks" (broken wire ends) that can injure riggers, while providing excellent flexibility for wrapping around irregular loads. A premium alternative to wire rope slings for crane operations.
Key Features
- Krypton-S high-performance fiber core
- Double-braid construction for maximum strength
- Dramatically lighter than equivalent wire rope slings
- No broken wires - eliminates "meat hook" injuries
- Flexible for wrapping irregular loads
- Spliced eyes for secure terminations
- Made in the USA
Applications
Crane lifting operations, heavy rigging, construction hoisting, steel erection, precast concrete lifting, and any crane operation where a lightweight alternative to wire rope slings is desired.

Inspection & Safety
Before every use: visual check for cracks, corrosion, distortion, wear, and illegible markings. Annually (minimum): documented periodic inspection by a trained inspector. Remove from service at first sign of damage. Never repair rigging hardware by welding, heating, or bending.
WARNING: Improper use of rigging can cause death or serious injury. Never exceed the rated Working Load Limit. Apply derating for side-loading, elevated temperature, or chemical exposure. Final application decisions must be made by a Qualified Person per OSHA 1926.32(m).
