Twin-Path ® Extra (TPXC) Sling
With Covermax ® and K-Spec ® Core Yarn
(Check-Fast ® Inspection optional)
US Patent #5,651,572 & #7,661,737 CA #2,195,393 & #2,547,632
EP #0785163 & #1899255 Japan #2929431 Australia #707924
This is the world’s first truly ergonomic sling with Covermax ® covers for superior abrasion resistance. These are made in sizes up to 600 tons vertica
l rated capacity. Larger capacity slings are available on special order. These slings have overload indicators, inner red cover, and are used world-wide in place of wire rope slings for heavy lifts. They are approximately 10% of the weight of a steel sling. These products
are repairable. The Twin-Path ® patented design provides the rigger with two connections between the hook and the load for redundant back-up protection. These slings have less than 1% stretch at rated capacity. If ergonomics, productivity and safety are important, then these slings are the only choice. This is the lightest and strongest sling on the market today with K-Spec ® - the longest lasting load bearing core yarn, backed by independent testing.
NOTE: Capacities shown include both paths and are one complete sling. Sling ratings based on fittings of equal of grater capacity. Conforms to ANSI/ASME B30.9 chapter 6, NAVFAC P-307 section 14.6.4.3, and the Cordage Institute Round-sling Standard. This chart is based on 5:1 Design Factor (DF); but any other DF can be fabricated. Higher capacity slings are available. CAPACITIES ARE IN POUNDS (LBS.).
