Safety rules for the use of man-made fibre slings
Never overload a sling.
Never use a damaged sling.
Never engage a soft eye with anything that could damage it.
The purchase engaged by the eye should be:
· Smooth with no sharp edges.
· Of adequate radius
· Not so wide as to tear the sewn joint apart.
Take extra care and use a sling of ample size:
· When the exact loading is in doubt.
· When there is liability of severe shock loading.
· When conditions are abnormal or severe.
· When there is any hazard to life and limb.
Always protect those parts of the webbing where abrasion or cutting may occur.
Always strictly observe the following precautions (they will prolong the life of your slings):
· Never tie a knot in any sling.
· Never throw a sling from a height.
· Never drag a sling over a rough surface.
· Never allow a load to rest on a sling if this could damage the sling.
· Never pull a sling out from under a load.
· Avoid snatch or shock loading.
Ratchet Lashings
Cargo ratchet lashings are available from 1 ton (30mm) up to 10 tons (75mm) with any end fittings. (Claw hooks, Rave hooks, D rings, Becket Eye) The webbing can also be fitted with wear sleeves. Any length of webbing can be made up in a choice of three colours.
