Value Collection WS-MH-SLNG1-280 Lifting Sling 1.6 Ton

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-SLNG1-280 is a 2-ply synthetic lifting sling rated for 1.6 tons in a vertical hitch configuration. At 8 feet long and 1 inch wide, this sling is built for rigging operations where a reliable, rated lift point is required. Weighing 1.18 pounds, it is light enough for single-technician handling while still meeting load requirements for a wide range of vertical lift applications. The silver color aids in quick visual identification on the job site. Riggers, millwrights, and general contractors working with overhead lifting equipment are the primary installers and operators of this sling type.

This sling is suited for vertical lift applications in industrial, commercial, and trade environments. It performs in scenarios such as machinery placement, equipment rigging, and load hoisting where a single-leg vertical configuration is appropriate. With an 8-foot length, it accommodates moderate hook-to-load distances common in shop and field rigging setups. The 2-ply construction distributes load stress across the sling body, providing added durability compared to single-ply alternatives.

Installation Notes

Rigging and lift operations must be performed by qualified personnel following ASME B30.9 standards for slings and applicable OSHA regulations. Inspect the sling for cuts, abrasions, chemical damage, or discoloration before each use, and remove from service if any damage is found. Never exceed the rated vertical capacity, and ensure the load is fully seated and secured before lifting. Do not use this sling in a basket or choker configuration unless a separate rated capacity for those hitches has been verified.
