Half twist eyes allow for a more efficient choker hitch. Eye and Eye slings are available in flat eye or half twist eye designs.

Abrasion pads and sleeves do not provide protection against polyester web and nylon sling cutting damage. Remember there is no such device that is cut proof! Sling protection against cutting is different than that used to protect against abrasion. Our web site and Rigging Resource Guide feature many innovative devices that will afford the responsible sling user protection, visit our web page Sling Protection for more detail. Heavy duty lifting straps made from webbing, like all lifting slings must be protected from cutting and abrasion by materials of sufficient strength, thickness and construction. Uncoated wire mesh slings can be used at temperatures of 550 degrees (F) with no reduction in sling work load limits. Chain Slings and Wire Rope Slings offer higher temperature limits of 400 degrees (F).
Polyester and heavy duty nylon lifting slings have two primary limitations: they are easily damaged by cutting and abrasion and they are susceptible to damage from heat above 194 degrees (F)/90 degrees (C). It is important for responsible sling users to realize that chain slings, wire rope slings and wire mesh slings all have their place for proper use and application. Synthetic lifting slings and straps like all industrial lifting slings have limitations.
