Value Collection WS-MH-SLNG1-277 Sling 1.6 Ton 5 Ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-SLNG1-277 is a 2-ply wire mesh sling rated for 1.6 tons of vertical lift capacity. At 5 feet in length and 1 inch in width, it is built for rigging applications where a secure, load-rated choker or vertical hitch connection is required. Weighing 0.74 pounds, this sling is compact enough for field use while meeting the load demands common in industrial material handling. The silver finish indicates its rating class. Rigging professionals, millwrights, and warehouse maintenance crews are the typical installers and users of this type of sling.

This sling is suited for vertical lift rigging in general industrial, warehouse, and manufacturing environments. It is appropriate for single-leg vertical hitch configurations up to its rated capacity. The 5-foot length fits standard overhead crane and hoist setups where moderate reach is needed between the hook and the load. It is not intended for use as a choker or basket hitch unless the rated capacity for that configuration has been verified per applicable load charts.

Key Features

• 1.6 ton vertical lift capacity for rated single-leg rigging use
• 5-foot length accommodates standard hoist and crane hook reach
• 1 inch width, 2-ply construction for load stability
• Lightweight at 0.74 pounds for easy transport and field deployment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose vertical rigging sling for use with standard overhead hoists, cranes, and lifting hooks rated to accept a 1-inch wide wire mesh sling at the stated capacity.

Installation Notes

Rigging slings must be inspected before each use for cuts, fraying, distortion, or heat damage and removed from service if any defects are found. Always confirm the hoist, crane, and attachment hardware are rated to meet or exceed the sling load rating before lifting. Rigging work should be performed by qualified riggers following ASME B30.9 standards for slings. Never exceed the rated vertical capacity, and verify the appropriate de-rating factor when using the sling in choker or basket configurations.
