Round Slings under 2T

Round sling hire in the 1-tonne and 2-tonne capacity ranges typically come in a variety of lengths from 0.5m to 6m. Contact your local Coates branch to find out what is available.

A 1T round sling lifts up to 1,000 kg and is ideal for lighter, delicate loads. A 2T round sling handles up to 2,000 kg and suits heavier or bulkier items. Proper rigging knowledge and training are essential, and holding the appropriate High Risk Work licence for rigging is required to ensure safe lifting practices.

In Australia, round slings are colour coded according to their Safe Working Load (SWL) to make identification easier and improve on-site safety. For round slings under 2 tonnes, the standard colour codes are:

• 1 tonne (1T): Violet
• 2 tonnes (2T): Green

You must check the load rating tag on each round sling before use and ensure it has a current safety inspection tag, as conditions such as wear, lifting angle and rigging method can affect lifting capacity.
