One Way Slings disposable endless Sling for tubing lifting & pipe industry & lifting boats bargets

Capacity
The sling must be both long enough and strong enough for the load and the slinging method. Apply the mode factorfor the slinging method. For use at temperatures exceeding 80°C or below 0°C refer to the suppliers instructions. Ifthe slings are used in multi-leg arrangement the angle formed between the legs should not be less than 30° orgreater than 90°. If abrasion, heat generated by friction or cutting from edges or corners are likely, select a slingfitted with protective sleeves and/or use suitable packing.


Storing and Handling Belt Slings
Never return wet, damaged or contaminated slings to storage. They should be cleaned with clear water and dried
naturally. Never force dry belt slings. Store belt slings hung from non-rusting pegs which allow the free circulation of
air. The storage area should be dry, clean, free of any contaminates and shaded from direct sunlight. Do not alter,
modify or repair a belt sling but refer such matters to a Competent Person.
NOTE: The material from which the sling is manufactured may be identified by the colour of the label or printing on
the label: Polyester = Blue, Polyamide (Nylon) = Green, Polypropylene = Brown and the sling may also be dyed with
a colour code to indicate SWL.


Using Belt Slings Safely
Do not attempt lifting operations unless you understand the use of the equipment, the slinging procedures and the
mode factors to be applied. Do not use defective slings or accessories. Check the correct engagement with fittings
and appliances, ensure smooth radii are formed, do not twist or cross slings and do not overcrowd fittings. Position
the sling so that the load is uniformly spread over its width. Position the bight for a choke lift at the natural (120°)
angle to prevent friction being generated. Ensure that stitching is in the standing part of the sling away from hooks
and other fittings. Take the load steadily and avoid shock loads. Do not leave suspended loads unattended. In an
emergency cordon off the area.


In-service Inspection, Maintenance and Replacement

Inspect slings each day before use, looking for:

• Missing or unreadable ID tag
• Melted, charred or weld-splattered areas
• Acid or alkali burns
• Holes, tears, cuts, snags or embedded particles
• Broken or worn stitching
• Excessive abrasive wear or elongation
• Knots or brittle areas
• Broken, corroded, pitted distorted fittings

Do not use worn or damaged slings or attachments. Discard or repair them. Use damaged slings only after they are repaired, reconditioned, and proof tested by the sling manufacturer or a qualified person. Keep certificates of proof test.

Maintenance requirements are minimal. Belt slings may be cleaned with clear water. Remember weak chemical
solutions will become increasingly stronger by evaporation. Regularly inspect belt slings and, in the event of the
following defects, refer the sling to a Competent Person for thorough examination: illegible markings; damaged,
chaffed or cut webbing; damaged or loose stitching; heat damage; burns; chemical damage; solar degradation;
damaged or deformed end fittings.
