SLING PROTECTION

leather sling protection

Wear pads give a sling extra protection where it wears the most. They can be furnished in numerous materials, including leather, buffer web, polyester, felt, PVC, among others. Whether you are trying to protect your sling against wear and cutting or oil and dirt, Liftex® has the sling protection that best fits your needs.

Sliding Sleeves

Sliding sleeves are ideal for handling material with sharp edges because the sleeve doesn’t move when the sling stretches. Sleeves cover both sides of the sling and can be moved on the sling to where it is needed. Sleeves are available in many materials and in any length.

Web Sling Edge Wrap

Edge wrap for web slings utilizes either a poly or nylon buffer material and is intended to protect the sling from abrasive materials that seem to be affecting only the edges of the web sling.

Corner Protection

Corner protection is vital for any lift that involves slings lifting around corners. Use cut protection to mitigate the risk of sling damage when lifting around corners.
