    RISK MANAGEMENT

    Our products are often used in work environments that can be dangerous. Although

    total elimination of risk is all but impossible, it can be managed. By definition, risk

    management is a comprehensive set of actions which reduces the risk of a problem,

    a failure, or an accident. We refer to this set of actions as a basic rigging plan. The

    following is a list of questions requiring answers prior to making any lift.

    The Basic Rigging PlanWho is responsible (competent) for the rigging?

    Are communications established?

    Is the equipment the appropriate type?

    Is the equipment properly identified?

    Is the equipment in acceptable condition?

    Are the working load limits adequate?

    What is the weight of the load?Where is the center of gravity?

    What is the sling angle?

    Will there be any angular or side loading?

    Are slings padded from sharp edges?

    Will the load be under control?

    Is the load rigged to the center of gravity?

    Is the hitch appropriate?

    Is a tag line needed?

    Is there any possibility of fouling?

    Is the pathway clear of obstruction?

    Are all personnel clear of the load?

    Are there any unusual loading or environmental conditions?

    Are there any other special requirements?

    This catalog is designed to familiarize our customers with some of the

    information required to answer these questions and formulate a rigging plan.

    SLING APPLICATION

    HitchesEvery lift uses one of three basic hitches:

    1. Vertical The vertical, or straight, attachment is simply using a sling to connect

    a lifting hook or other device to a load. Full rated load of the sling may be used,but never exceeded. A tagline should be used on such a lift to prevent rotation,

    which can damage the sling. A wire rope sling with a hand-tucked splice can

    unlay and fail if the sling is allowed to rotate.

    2. Choker Choker Hitch configurations reduce the rated capacity of a sling by

    20 to 25 percent. If a load is hanging free, the normal choke angle is

    approximately 135. When the choke angle is less than 120, an adjustment in

    the choker rated capacity must be made (see illustration below). Extreme care

    should be taken to determine the choke angle as accurately as possible.

    As indicated in the table below, the decrease in rated capacity is dramatic.

    3. Basket Basket hitches distribute a load equally between the two legs of a

    sling, within limitations imposed by the angles at which legs are rigged to the

    load (see discussion of sling angles).

    Angle AdjustmentRated capacity adjustment for slings in choker hitch

    when angle is less than 120. Choke angles greater

    than 135 are unstable and should not be used.

    A basket hitch has twice the capacity of a single leg

    only if legs of sling are vertical. and only if D/d ratio is

    25:1 and it is vertical. D/d > 25:1 per ANSI B30.9.

    Sling AngleSling Angle (also called angle of loading) is the

    angle measured between a horizontal plane and

    the sling leg or body. This angle is very important

    and can have a dramatic effect on the rated

    capacity of the sling (see illustration below). As

    illustrated at right, when this angle decreases, the

    load on each leg increases. This principle applies

    whether one sling is used to pull at an angle, in a

    basket hitch, or for multilegged bridle slings. Sling

    angles of less than 30 shall not be used.

    Angles and StressHow do you carry two buckets of water? These

    illustrations typify the stresses imposed on slings when

    the legs are attached to the load at various angles.

    ReevingReeving through connections to load increases load on

    connections fitting by as much as twice.

    Do not reeve!

    Triple and Quad Leg SlingsTriple leg slings have 50% more capacity than double leg only

    if the center of gravity is in center of connection points and the legs

    are adjusted properly (equal share of the load).

    Quad leg slings offer improved stability but do not provide

    increased lifting capacity.

    CENTER OF GRAVITY (COG)

    The location of the center of gravity to the pick points is an

    important consideration.

    COG and Sling LoadingWhen lifting vertically, the load will be shared equally if thecenter of gravity is spaced equally between the pick points, as in the

    first illustration at right. If the weight of the load is 10,000 lbs., then

    each sling will have a load of 5,000 lbs. and each shackle and eyebolt

    will also have a load of 5,000 lbs.

    When the center of gravity is not equally spaced between the

    pick points, as in the second illustration, the slings and fittings will

    not carry an equal share of the load. The sling connected to the pick

    point closest to the center of gravity will carry the greatest share of

    the load. Sling 2 is closest to COG. It will have the greatest share ofload.

    Sling 2 = 10,000 x 8 / (8+2) = 8,000

    Sling 1 = 10,000 x 2 / (8+2) = 2,000

    SLING INSPECTIONPROGRAM

    Based on ASME B30.92003

    The inspection process for slings is one

    requiring ongoing effort from the time a product

    arrives until it has been deemed unfit for use. Thefollowing is a breakdown for the types of

    inspection required.

    Types of Inspection:

    (a) Initial Inspection. Before using any new or

    repaired sling, it shall be inspected to ensure

    that the correct sling is being used, as well as

    to determine that the sling meets ASME

    standards.

    (b) Frequent Inspection. This inspection shouldbe made by the person handling the sling each

    day the sling is used.

    (c) Periodic Inspection. conducted by designated

    personnel. Frequency of inspection should be

    based on:

    (1) frequency of sling use

    (2) severity of service conditions

    (3) experience gained of the service life of

    slings used in similar appliactions

    Periodic inspections should be conducted atleast annually with a written record of each

    slings condition, utilizing the identification

    for each sling as established by the user.

    Initial and frequent inspections are relatively straightforward in terms of how

    often they are done. Periodic inspection is required a minimum of once a year. You may

    want to perform written inspections more frequently and track rejection rates until a

    baseline can be established and goals can be set. If a good job is done on the frequent

    inspections, you may find that an annual periodic is sufficient.

    ASME B30.9 requires tagging of all slings. The inspection process should begin with

    making sure that each sling has proper identification. The criteria for inspection can be

    found on the following pages. A sample survey sheet is also included.

    Synthetic Web SlingsInspection: Each day before and during use where service conditions warrant, the

    sling and all attachments shall be inspected by a competent person and removed from

    service if damage or defects such as the following are visible:

    1. Missing or illegible rated capacity tag

    2. Cuts, snags, holes punctures, or tears in any part of the webbing

    3. Excessive abrasive wear

    4. Broken or worn threads in the stitching

    5. Melting or charring in any part of the sling

    6. Acid or caustic burns

    7. Broken, cracked, distorted, pitted, or corroded fittings

    8. Any modification or alteration such as knots or tying slings together

    9. Other conditions, including visual damage, that cause doubt as to the continued use

    of the sling

    Alloy Chain SlingsInspection: It is important to inspect slings regularly. Clean slings so that marks,

    nicks, wear, and other conditions can be seen. Each chain link and component should

    be individually inspected for the following conditions:

    1. Missing or illegible tag

    2. Twists or bends

    3. Nicks or gouges

    4. Excessive wear at bearing points (refer to wear allowance chart

    5. Cracks

    6. Stretch

    7. Evidence of heat damage

    8. Distorted, worn, or damaged master links, coupling links, or attachments, especially

    spread in throat opening of hooks

    9. Other conditions, including visual damage, that cause doubt as to the continued use

    of the sling

    Each link or component having any condition listed above is to be marked with

    paint to plainly indicate rejection and removed from service until properly repaired.

    Wire Rope SlingsInspection: No precise rules can be given for the determination of the exact time

    for replacement of a sling since many variable factors are involved. Safety in this

    respect depends largely upon the use of good judgement of an appointed person in

    evaluating remaining strength in a used sling after allowance for deterioration disclosed

    by inspection. Safety of sling operation depends on this remaining strength.

    Conditions such as the following should be sufficient for questioning sling safety

    and for consideration of replacement:

    1. Ten randomly distributed broken wires in one rope lay, or five broken wires in one

    strand in one rope lay

    2. Wear or scraping of one-third the original diameter of outside individual wires

    3. Kinking, crushing, bird caging, or any other damage resulting in distortion of the rope

    structure

    4. Evidence of heat damage

    5. End attachments that are cracked, deformed, or worn

    6. For hooks, removal criteria as stated in ASME B30.10

    7. Corrosion of the rope or end attachments

    8. Missing or illegible tag

    9. Other conditions, including visual damage, that cause doubt as to the continued use

    of the sling

    Synthetic Round SlingsInspection: Before each lift, inspect the sling for the following signs of damage.

    If any are present, remove the sling from service.

    1. Missing or illegible identification tag

    2. Melting, charring, or weld splatter on any part of the sling

    3. Holes, tears, cuts, abrasive wear, or snags that expose the core yarns

    4. Knotting

    5. Acid or alkali burns

    6. Other conditions, including visual damage, that cause doubt as to the continued use

    of the sling

    Wire Mesh SlingsInspection: Remove the sling from service i

    any of the following is visible:

    1. A broken weld or brazed joint along the sling

    edge

    2. A broken wire in any part of the mesh

    3. Reduction in wire diameter of 25% due to

    abrasion or 15% due to corrosion

    4. Lack of flexibility due to deterioration of the

    mesh

    5. Visible distortion or wear of either end fitting

    6. Cracked end fitting

    7. Other conditions, including visual damage

    that cause doubt as to the continued use o

    the sling

    ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

    Chemical EnvironmentsChemically active environments, such as acids and caustics, can affect the strength

    of slings. The sling manufacturer should be consulted before slings are used in such

    environments.

    Prolonged exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light adversely affect the strength

    of nylon and polyester. Slings become bleached and stiff.

    OPERATING PRACTICES

    1. Determine the weight of the load. The weight

    of the load shall be within the rated capacity

    of the sling.

    2. Select a sling of suitable type and material for

    the load, hitch, and environment.

    3. Slings that appear to be damaged shall not be

    used unless inspected and accepted.

    4. Slings shall be hitched in a manner that

    provides control of the load and prevents load

    slippage.

    5. Slings shall not be loaded in excess of the

    rated capacity. Consideration shall be given to

    the sling to load angle which affects rated

    capacity (see load chart).

    6. Slings with fittings which are used as a choker

    hitch shall be of sufficient length to assure

    that the choking action is on the webbing

    and never on a fitting.

    7. The opening in fittings shall be the proper

    size and shape to insure that the fitting will

    seat properly in the hook or other

    attachments.

    8. Slings equipped with metal fittings shall not

    be dropped.

    9. Slings shall be protected from being damaged by sharp corners, sharp edges,

    protrusions, or abrasive surfaces.

    10. Slings shall not be dragged on the floor or over abrasive surfaces.

    11. Slings shall not be twisted, tied in knots, or joined by knotting.

    12. During lifting, with or without a load, personnel shall be alert for possible snagging

    or bumping.

    13. Shock loading shall be avoided.

    14. The slings legs shall contain or support the load from the sides above the center of

    gravity when using a basket hitch.

    15. Slings shall be long enough so that the rated capacity of the sling is adequate when

    the angle of the legs is taken into consideration (see load chart).

    16. Personnel, including portions of the human body, shall be kept from between the

    sling and the load, and from the sling and the lifting hook.

    17. Personnel shall stand clear of loads about to be lifted and stand clear of suspended

    loads.

    18. Personnel shall not ride the sling.

    19. Personnel shall stand clear of a sling under tension. The sudden release of tension

    due to failure of the sling, a fitting, or attachment can cause the sling to recoil with

    lethal force.

    20. Slings shall not be pulled from under a load with the load resting on the sling. Place

    blocks under the load prior to setting down the load to allow the removal of the

    slings.

    21. Nylon and Polyester slings shall not be used at temperatures above 194 Fahrenheit

    (90 C).

    22. Exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light degrades the strength of slings. Store slings

    in a cool, dry, and dark place when not in use.

    Additional requirements and safe operating practices are outlined in current OSHA and

    ANSI/ASME B30.9 and/or other regulations as applicable.

    Single Part Body,Mechanical SpliceThe eye or loop end preparation is formed

    using the Flemish Eye Splice. This splice is then

    secured by swaging a metal sleeve over the strang

    ends, at the junction of the splice. There are no

    exposed wires and serving is not required.

    The swaged metal sleeve flows around the

    wires and prevents the strands from unlaying.

    Depending on the application, the sleeve can be

    steel, aluminum, or stainless steel.

    A single part, mechanical splice sling is

    economical, offers the highest rated capacity of any

    spliced sling, and loads are applied along the center

    line of the sling.

    CAUTION: Refer to Introduction: Sling Application.

    Flemish Eye Splice

    The Flemish Eye is spliced by unlaying one-

    half of the strands from the other half andthe core. The two halves are joined at the

    bearing point of the eye and laid back in the

    opposite direction. The final step is to secure

    the strands with a metal sleeve.

    Single Part Body,Hand SpliceThe eye or loop end preparation is formed

    using the Tapered Eye Hand Splice. This splice doe

    not require a metal sleeve to secure the eye. When

    the splice is both Tapered and Concealed, there are

    no exposed wires and serving is not required. When

    the splice is Tapered and the strand ends are

    trimmed with a torch, serving may be requested.

    The Single Part, Hand Splice sling provides

    more flexibility than a Mechanical Splice sling o

    equal diameter and has a narrower profile for fitting

    through tight spaces.

    Single Part, Hand Splice slings with a diamete

    through 112 are made using the Tapered and

    Concealed Hand Splice. Diameters larger than 112

    are made using the Burnt End Hand Splice.

    CAUTION: Refer to Introduction: Sling Application.

    Tapered Eye Splice

    The Tapered Eye Hand Splice is made by form-

    ing a loop, unlaying the strands in the tail,

    and tucking the strands back into the sling

    body. The strand ends are either concealed in-

    side the sling body or are left exposed and

    trimmed with a torch.

    WARNING: Hand Spliced slings should not be

    used in lifts where the sling is free to rotate and

    unlay the sling body.

    Cable Laid Body,Mechanical SpliceCable Laid Slings are fabricated from a

    machine made rope comprised of seven wire ropes

    The cable laid body is typically 7x7x7 or 7x7x19

    construction. These slings are used where flexibility

    and resistance to kinking and setting are more

    important than resistance to abrasion. Since the

    rope is made up of many smaller wire ropes, the

    slings can bend around smaller diameters without

    taking a permanent set or kink. The many smal

    wires are susceptible to abrasion.

    Due to their construction, cable laid slings are

    normally mechanically spliced. The rated capacity

    adjustment Table 1 for choker hitches applies to

    cable laid slings as well.

    CAUTION: Refer to Introduction: Sling Application.

    Flemish Eye Splice

    The Flemish Eye is spliced by unlaying one-half of the strands from the other half and

    the core. The two halves are joined at the

    bearing point of the eye and laid back in the

    opposite direction. The final step is to secure

    the strands with a metal sleeve.

    Multi Part Body,BraidMulti-part slings are flexible, snug up

    tightly around the load in choker hitches,

    and quickly regain shape after a lift.

    They also offer outstanding handling

    characteristics, particularly in larger rated

    capacities. When loaded, stress is equally

    distributed to all rope parts in the sling

    body due to the helical manner in which

    ropes are laid together.

    Braided slings are formed by

    continuously plaiting, or braiding, several

    ropes together to form the sling body and

    both eyes in a single fabrication operation.

    Ends of individual ropes are usually hand-

    tucked or mechanically spliced into

    component ropes of the body. Eyes are

    wrapped and given a rubberized coating

    since eyes are not braided.

    Braided slings are often selected

    where loads must be rolled or maneuvered,

    since the design creates friction to grip

    loads and resists rotation.

    GROMMETS

    Grommets are a unique type of sling which form a con-

    tinuous loop. Several types are available, such as strand

    laid hand tucked, strand laid mechanical, cable laid hand

    tucked, and cable laid mechanical. The splice area should

    not come into contact with the load or the lifting device.A minimum inside circumference of 96 body diameters is

    recommended. Since a grommet is a continuous circle, it

    is very important to consider D/d ratio. The D/d ratio must

    be applied to the lifting pins as well as to the load.

    Strand Laid,HandTuckedA Strand Laid Hand

    Tucked Grommet is made

    from one continuous lengthof strand. No sleeves are used

    to make the joint. This results

    in a very smooth circular

    sling.

    Strand Laid,Mechanical SpliceStrand Laid Mechanical Splice Grommets

    are made from one continuous length of wire

    rope joined by pressing or swaging one or

    more sleeves over the rope juncture. This type

    of grommet is not as smooth as the hand

    tucked version. An advantage is that the

    swaged sleeves give clear indication of the

    splice area.

    Zinc or ResinPoured SocketsZinc or Resin Poured Sockets have traditionally

    been the end attachment method used to

    determine the actual breaking strength of a rope.

    Therefore, their efficiency in a breaking strength

    test is established to be 100% for all grades and

    constructions of wire rope. The efficiency of all

    other end terminations are established by

    comparison to zinc or resin poured sockets.

    Steel forgings are used for rope sizes 1/2

    through 112and cast steel fittings for larger sizes.

    Assembly length is measured from centerline of pin

    for open sockets and bearing point for closed

    sockets.

    Swage SocketsCold swaging is a process which causes

    considerable movement and work hardening of the

    steel in the fitting. Exerting extreme pressures, the

    swaging machine forces the steel to flow into the

    crevices between the wires and strands of the wire

    rope. At the same time, the swaging machine forces

    the material to flow plastically along the length of

    the wire rope.

    Swaged sockets are interchangeable with

    poured sockets up through 2 rope diameters.

    Assembly length is measured from centerline of pins

    for both open and closed sockets.

    Slip-Thru ThimblesDesigned to allow passage of an identical thimble through its eye. This is a necessity

    when a regular sling is used as a choker sling. Slip-thru thimbles also prevent the eye of the

    sling from mashing together and the top of the eye wearing excessively. The generous inside

    dimensions allow the thimbles to fit large crane hooks. Rope retention ears are tapered so they

    can be bent or peened over wire rope.
