Description

Eye & Eye Roundslings provide the same basic features of a polyester roundsling, and offer a double-wall cover under the body cover to protect load bearing yarns. They also save money by extending the life of the body of the sling. Roundslings, made of durable, high strength materials, are light-weight and flexible in construction. Roundslings, like web slings, are gentle to the load and provide some protection to fragile loads. A roundsling is seamless and tubular in construction with no stitched edges to become snagged or ruptured. In addition, roundslings are color coded according to capacities to allow easy identification while the soft pliable body of a round sling allows it to hug uneven and odd-shaped loads.

Polyester roundslings stretch nearly 3% at the rated capacity and will return to the original length after the load is released. The cover of a roundsling protects load bearing yarns from ultra-violet degradation as well as abrasion. Polyester web slings are used primarily in conditions where acid is present or a minimum stretch is desired. Polyester is unaffected by common acids and hot bleaching agents, but the material is unsuitable for use in conditions where concentrated sulfuric acid and alkaline is present. Polyester is also unsuitable in locations where temperatures exceed 194° F (90° C). A roundsling is the cost effective choice in high capacity lifting or pulling applications.
