Chain slings are used to lift and control heavy, suspended loads. Commonly deployed in steelworks, construction and transport, they are made from high-strength alloy steel for safety and high performance.
Each chain sling features one or more legs, making them suitable for lifting loads. Single-leg chain slings are ideal for vertical lifting, while multi-leg chain slings provide greater load stability through multiple connection points.
Lifting chain slings are fitted with compatible hooks, shortening devices and master link.
Coates supplies chain slings in different lengths and weight capacities, allowing you to match the sling to your lifting plan.
A chain sling is used for lifting heavy items during crane or hoist operations. It secures and balances the load throughout the lift.
Multi-leg chain slings allow for better balance and load distribution.
Before using a chain sling, you must ensure you’re properly qualified with a current rigging ticket. Confirm the sling’s load rating on its identification plate, ensure it has a current inspection tag, inspect for damage and ensure proper connection points. Always seek professional assistance if you are unsure.
