Slings, which are frequently used in load-carrying and lifting works with their strong and reliable structures, are produced from 100% polyester. The working load limit of slings varies from 0.5 tonnes to 50 tonnes according to their types. Slings can have a band thickness from 25 mm to 1.200 mm according to the demands of the users. Slings have different colour codes. Sling colours represent the tonnage carried by the product. You can buy the slings that are colour-coded in accordance with the weight of the load to be carried, which are suitable for your needs.
What are the Colours of Slings?
Polyester slings can safely carry the load that needs to be transported and lifted. Slings with high strength are preferred in many areas thanks to these features. Each of the slings has colour codes determined according to the amount of load it can carry.
Colours of slings are as follows:
- 1-ton cloth slings are purple,
- 2-ton polyester slings are green,
- 3-ton slings are yellow,
- 4-ton polyester slings are grey,
- 5-ton slingshot are red,
- 6-ton slings are brown,
- 8-ton slings are blue, and
- 10-ton slings are orange.
All slings over 10 tonnes are colour-coded as orange. These colours comply with world standards. The same codes are used in Türkiye. As you can buy slings with up to 100 tonnes carrying capacity, slings with 200, 300 tonnes carrying capacity can also be produced.
What Advantages Does Sling Use Provide?
Polyester sling types, which are used in many sectors thanks to their strong structure, also attract attention with their flexible structure. The use of polyester slings in freight transport is quite intense. Slings offer a high user experience with their bending and wear-resistant structures. One of the most important advantages of sling use is that it is a safe transport element without damaging the loads carried.
Slings that are resistant to changing weather conditions should be used at the specified temperature and cold temperatures. Instructions for use contain information about the usage characteristics of the products. Products that are used following the instructions for use and periodically maintained offer a longer-lasting use. Polyester is effective in making the slings light. Thus, slings are not abrasive and produce ideal solutions for transporting fragile loads.
