Our polyester lifting slings are available in a variety of colors and assorted strengths to meet a number of needs. Choose from purple, green, yellow and blue with working load limits to meet vertical, choker, or basket applications.
In comparison with our nylon slings, polyester lift slings are just as strong and offer some advantages that make them the preferred material in some cases. Slings made of polyester are both lightweight and non-corrosive, meaning you can use them in instances where exposure to corrosive substances might be a risk to other materials. Polyester is also heat-resistant for jobs where high temperatures are encountered. However, for industrial applications subject to extreme temperatures and rugged conditions, chain slings offer the best in long-term durability and heat resistance.
The double sleeve construction of the polyester lifting sling makes it even more resistant to wear for a piece of equipment that will last longer and perform to the highest standards. Our selection of lifting slings made from polyester is available in lengths from 2 inches to 24 inches.
As with any rigging equipment, it's necessary to inspect your lift slings regularly to be sure that the indicated working load limit still applies to your gear. Make sure to check for the following during inspection:
- Missing or illegible sling rated capacity identification tag
- Acid or alkali burns
- Tears, cuts, holes, snags, or embedded particles in the sling
- Worn or broken stitching in load bearing splices
- Distortion and excessive abrasive wear
- Melting, charring, weld spatter, or knots in any part of the sling
- Any condition that can cause doubt as to the integrity of the sling
- The lifting sling must be removed from service if any of the above are present. If you don't feel confident about conducting inspection on your own, we can do it for you. Just ship your poly lift sling to us for visual and load test inspections. Click here more details.
