Slings, which are used in lifting and transport operations in many sectors, produce solutions suitable for the area of use with their strong structures. Slings are produced from artificial fibres called polyamide, polyester and polypropylene with a width of 25 mm to 450 mm. The two-layer, three-layer and four-layer of the sling fabric refers to its layers. Multi-arm slings are lifting equipment consisting of two, three or four identical weavings. The properties of the rope fabric serve to lift various loads safely.
Lifting equipment produced according to working load limits and used for lifting and transporting loads can be used in various fields. However, slings should not be used for lifting molten metals, or acidic and based chemical materials.
What are the elements that make up the structure of slings?
Slings made of polyester, polyamide and polypropylene fibres are produced by melting and shaping these fibres, exposing them to high pressure and tightening them. The slings, which get their strong structure from these processes, have double-layer, three-layer, four-layer layer properties. Polyester fibres, which are artificial fibres, increase the resistance of slings thanks to their 100% polyester structure.
Polyester slings get their strong structure from the fact that the fibres are composed of polyester yarns, tightly knitted and tightened. Since the fabric of the slings is highly resistant to physical and chemical impacts, it is suitable for use in many areas. The sling fabrics, which are tightened with a tight knitting technique, provide equal resistance at every point of the sling.
What are the features of slings?
Slings vary according to their types, prices and load-carrying capacities. The features of polyester slings are one of the reasons why they are preferred in many areas. The features of slings can be listed as follows:
- One of the most important features showing the durability of slings is that they are produced from polyester material that is not affected by moisture and humidity.
- Slings show very little stretch under heavy loads.
- It has a two-layer, three-layer and four-layer layer structure.
- Polyester fabric is an easy material to produce.
- Slings that are faced with weight show a very small elongation coefficient.
- Products that offer ease of production are also of good quality.
- Polyester slings show high resistance to tensile and friction.
- Slings with a wide range of uses are also long-lasting.
