The 10 Tonne Flat Webbing Sling (Orange) is a lightweight and flexible textile lifting strap designed to safely handle ultra-heavy loads up to 10,000 kg while protecting delicate surfaces from damage.
Manufactured to EN 1492-1 standards with a strict 7:1 Safety Factor, ensuring high reliability and compliance for extreme industrial lifting operations.
Constructed from high-tenacity polyester webbing featuring a 300 mm wide duplex (double-layer) design for superior strength and excellent load distribution.
Color-coded in standard orange for instant visual identification of its 10-tonne Working Load Limit (WLL).
Features reinforced eyes at both ends to withstand wear and ensure secure attachment to lifting hooks, shackles, and other heavy rigging hardware.
Inspect slings and accessories before use & before storage.
Position the sling so the load is spread uniformly over its width.
Use protective sleeves or packing for sharp edges.
Position the bight for choke lift at natural angle (120°).
Apply the correct Mode Factor for the slinging arrangement.
NEVER:
Attempt to shorten, knot, or tie webbing slings.
Expose slings to direct heat, flames, or welding splatter.
Use slings with missing/illegible labels.
Shock load webbing slings.
Use slings that are cut or have loose stitching.
Expose to chemicals/temperatures >80°C without consulting supplier.
Selecting the Correct Sling Material
Identify the material by the color of the label. Different materials have different chemical resistances and temperature ranges.
Material
Label Color
Chemical Resistance
Temperature Range
Polyester (PES)
BLUE
Resistant to moderate acids. Damaged by Alkalis.
-40ºC to 100ºC
Polyamide (Nylon)
GREEN
Immune to Alkalis. Damaged by Acids.
-40ºC to 100ºC
Polypropylene
BROWN
Unaffected by Acids/Alkalis. Damaged by Solvents/Paints.
-40ºC to 80ºC
⚠️ Chemical Warning: Weak chemical solutions can become stronger by evaporation. If exposure to chemicals is likely, consult the manufacturer. Grade 8 fittings should NOT be used in acidic conditions due to hydrogen embrittlement.
Using Slings Safely
Do not attempt lifting unless you understand slinging procedures and mode factors.
Check correct engagement with fittings; do not overcrowd hooks.
Ensure stitching is in the standing part of the sling (away from hooks).
Take the load steadily to avoid shock loading.
Do not leave suspended loads unattended.
Storage & Handling
Never return wet or contaminated slings to storage. Clean with clear water and dry naturally.
Store hung from non-rusting pegs in a dry, clean area.
Keep away from direct sunlight (UV degradation) and heat sources.
Do not modify or repair slings yourself.
In-Service Inspection
Inspect before each use. Refer to a Competent Person if you see:
Illegible markings or missing labels.
Chaffed, cut, or damaged webbing.
Loose or damaged stitching.
Heat burns, chemical damage, or solar degradation.
Deformed or damaged end fittings.
