Value Collection WS-MH-SLNG1-285 Web Sling 16 Ft 1.6 Ton

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-SLNG1-285 is a 2-ply web sling rated for 1.6 tons (3,200 pounds) in a vertical hitch configuration and 2,500 pounds in a choker hitch configuration. Measuring 16 feet in length and 1 inch in width, this sling is designed for overhead lifting applications in industrial, construction, and rigging environments. Licensed riggers and material handlers use this type of sling where synthetic webbing is preferred over chain or wire rope to protect delicate load surfaces from marring or crushing damage.

This sling suits a wide range of general rigging and lifting tasks including vertical, choker, and basket hitch configurations depending on rated capacity for each mode. It is appropriate for use in warehouses, fabrication shops, construction sites, and industrial facilities where controlled overhead lifts are performed. The 16-foot length provides flexibility when rigging loads that require reach or when sling angle adjustments are needed to maintain safe working load limits.

Key Features

• 1.6 ton vertical capacity — 3,200 pound rated vertical hitch load
• 2,500 pound choker hitch capacity for angled or wrapped rigging configurations
• 2-ply webbing construction for added durability and load distribution
• 16-foot length supports flexible rigging geometry and sling angle adjustments
• 1-inch width keeps sling profile narrow for use with hooks, shackles, and lifting eyes
• Lightweight synthetic construction at 2.36 pounds reduces handler fatigue during repeated use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose synthetic web sling suitable for standard rigging hardware including hooks, shackles, and lifting beams rated to match or exceed the sling working load limit.

Installation Notes

Rigging and overhead lifting must be performed by qualified riggers following ASME B30.9 standards for slings. Inspect the sling for cuts, fraying, chemical damage, heat damage, or distorted fittings before each use — remove from service immediately if any defects are found. Never exceed the rated working load limit for the hitch type in use, and always account for sling angle reduction in basket or choker configurations. Store away from direct sunlight, chemicals, and sharp edges when not in use.
