Textile Flat Webbing Slings

A textile flat webbing sling is a rigging device consisting of a durable synthetic strap with lifting fittings (hooks, snap hooks, rings).

Loop and endless textile slings are especially popular. Unlike wire rope and chain slings, they offer flexibility. Textile slings are soft and lightweight. They take up little space in storage: each leg is rolled up into a coil.

Flexible webbing slings are used for lifting, moving and storing loads that require careful handling — without scratches, cracks, dents or other deformation. Special attention is given to items with soft edges and prepared surfaces. Textile slings are convenient and safe to use. Drawbacks: a tendency to stretch under heavy loads and to accumulate static electric charge.
