Also known as Type 3 slings, the eyes lie in a flat position for easy removal from beneath loads. Lightweight and flexible, web slings are less likely than other slings to mar, scratch, or dent fragile loads. They include a tag that shows the material, length, and capacities in each configuration. The slings have a size of 1, a width of 10 and a length of 2.
Note: Web slings are susceptible to cuts and abrasion and should not be exposed to sharp edges. They have a red warning core that is visible when the sling is worn and should be removed from use.
Nylon slings stretch more than polyester, minimizing shock to the load. They withstand greasy conditions.
Polyester slings have minimal stretch to provide more control over the load and resist most acids. They have a blue thread sewn through the material to distinguish them from nylon.
