About Sling Configurations and Capacity

Galvanized Steel Wire Rope with Hook—For Lifting

The galvanized finish resists corrosion.

18-8 Stainless Steel Wire
Rope with Hook—For Lifting

For use in washdown environments, this wire rope has better corrosion resistance than the galvanized steel wire rope.

Steel Wire Rope with Hook—For Lifting

This steel wire rope includes a hook with latch on one end for use with winches.

Galvanized Steel Wire Rope with
Reinforced Loop—For Lifting

The galvanized finish resists corrosion.

Steel Wire Rope with Reinforced Loop—For Lifting

With a reinforced loop, also known as a thimble eye, installed on one end, quickly attach a hook or a shackle to a wire rope.

18-8 Stainless Steel Wire Rope
with Reinforced Loop—For Lifting

For use in washdown environments, this wire rope has better corrosion resistance than the galvanized steel wire rope.

Wire Rope with Swivel Hook—For Lifting

The swivel hook with latch installed on one end, prevents the wire rope from twisting. It is for use with winches.

Wire Rope with Stop—For Lifting

A stop, also known as a ferrule fitting, installed on one end holds the rope in place.

Wire Rope—For Lifting

This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.

Ultra-Flexible Wire Rope—For Lifting

More wires per strand than other wire rope provides the flexibility required for repeat bending over drums and pulleys.

Rotation- and Corrosion-Resistant
Wire Rope—For Lifting

Use this wire rope when lifting in areas that are frequently washed down and require a rope that counteracts rotation.

Ultra-Flexible Corrosion-Resistant
Wire Rope—For Lifting

More wires per strand than other wire rope provides the flexibility required for repeat bending over drums and pulleys.

Corrosion-Resistant Wire Rope—For Lifting

This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.

Ultra-Flexible High-Strength Wire Rope—For Lifting

More wires per strand than other wire rope provides the flexibility required for repeat bending over drums and pulleys.

High-Strength Wire Rope—For Lifting

This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.

Rotation-Resistant Wire Rope—For Lifting

To counteract rotation while under load, the outer strands are wound in the opposite direction of the core.

Wear-Resistant Wire Rope—For Lifting

Flattened outer strands create a smooth surface area that spreads contact to reduce wear.

High-Strength Rope—For Lifting

High-Temperature
Wear-Resistant Rope—For Lifting

Because it's made of a high-performance aramid also known as Technora, this rope keeps its strength in high heat and is chemical and corrosion resistant.

Long-Life Ultra-Wear-Resistant Rope—For Lifting

Made from a blend of high-performance polyester and polyethylene with a polyurethane coating, this rope has the greatest wear resistance of any rope we offer.

Low-Stretch Wear-Resistant Rope—For Lifting

For more control over your load, this rope is a high-performance polyester also known as Vectran, which has excellent resistance to stretch and slip.

Wet-Environment Wear-Resistant Rope—For Lifting

Strong even when wet, this rope is a high-performance polyethylene comparable to Spectra and Dyneema.

High-Temperature Easy-Splice Rope—For Lifting

Made of a high-performance aramid, also known as Technora, this rope keeps its strength in high heat and resists chemicals and corrosion. The braided construction and hollow core make it easier to splice than other rope, so you can add a fitting or connect rope together.

Wet-Environment Easy-Splice Rope—For Lifting

Also known as Dyneema and comparable to Spectra, this rope is made of high-performance polyethylene that remains strong even when wet.

Low-Stretch Easy-Splice Rope—For Lifting

For more control over your load, this rope is a high-performance polyester also known as Vectran, which has excellent resistance to stretch and slip.

Cable

Drop-Down Cable

Often used to wire pendant switches, this cable hangs from an overhead connection. Also known as bus drop cable.

Flat Control Cable

Also known as festoon cable, this flat cable fits in confined spaces such as overhead cranes and hoists. It sends signal and data to operate, measure, or regulate automated equipment.

High-Voltage Continuous-Flex Flat Cable

A thick outer layer of silicone rubber insulation protects this cable from high voltages while remaining ultra flexible. It stands up to continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission.

Slings

Wire Rope Slings

These slings are more abrasion and cut resistant than web and round slings, yet lighter in weight than mesh and chain slings.

Wire Rope Slings with Hooks

These slings attach quickly and securely to loads with lift attachments.

Rope Slings

Made of abrasion- and chemical-resistant Dyneema, these slings are a lightweight alternative to wire rope slings.

Adjustable Rope Slings

Similar to a finger trap, the loop adjusts freely when loose and holds tight when tension is applied.
