Endless Single-Path High Performance Roundslings
Single-Path slings are lightweight, strong, and versatile, making them a smart choice for a wide variety of applications.
Constructed from a single path of tough K-Spec® load-bearing core yarn (found to be the long-lasting in the industry!) with a durable Covermax® jacket, these endless high performance roundslings are designed to last, even in demanding environments.
The Covermax® jacket is made using a double layer of industrial-strength nylon, offering more than four times the amount of abrasion-resistance than a polyester jacket.
The Single-Path Sling Difference
It's easy to find reasons to choose a Single-Path sling over a comparable wire rope, chain, or nylon option.
The main consideration is the combination of strength and low weight. Compared to a comparable-strength steel sling, Single-Path slings are less than 10% of the weight. This ergonomic sling is easier to transport and install, and the lower weight also reduces the risk of rigger injuries.
Other features are also beneficial:
- Non-conductive, non-corrosive, water-resistant, and UV-resistant
- 1% elongation at rated capacity
- Load-conforming, perfect for fragile loads
Single-Path slings are also repairable. This is dependent on the damage, but if only the jacket has been damaged and not the inner fibers, there's a good chance you can get it repaired. This saves you money, as it's cheaper to repair a sling than to buy a whole new one.
Simplify Inspections with Check-Fast®
When it comes to workplace safety, regular sling inspections done by a qualified individual are essential. The Check‐Fast® external warning indicator makes it easier to identify damage to the core fibers. This indicator also warns you if the sling has overloaded.
The Check‐Fast® system uses an independent fiber path that includes a weak link. This link is designed to fail above the proof load but before the sling reaches its max capacity. When it gives way, it pulls the visual indicator into the sling jacket.
If you no longer see the visual indicator, remove the sling from service and contact us about the possibility of sending it to the manufacturer for potential repair.
Note: The Check‐Fast® system is not a replacement for standard inspections and should instead be incorporated as part of the inspection process.
Protecting Your Single-Path Sling
"Slings in contact with edges, corners, protrusions, or abrasive surfaces shall be protected with a material of sufficient strength, thickness, and construction to prevent damage." - ASME B30.9 (2021) 9-5.10.4(d)
We offer a wide variety of sling-protection options, including CornerMax cut-resistant sleeves. These can be inserted over your endless sling to create an eye on each end.
Single-Path slings should only be used in environments between -40˚F (-40˚C) and 180˚F (82˚C). For a high-temperature option, look at our Sparkeater® slings - they can be used in temperatures up to 300˚F (149˚C)!
Questions?
Our product experts are standing by to answer any questions you may have about single-path slings (or lifting and rigging in general), and can even help you place an order.
If you like this sling style but need higher ratings, check out our Twin-Path® high performance roundslings - they have two paths of K-Spec® fibers instead of one, meaning they are rated to handle greater capacities.
We also carry a full line of other lifting products, including chain slings, rigging hardware, loadcells, and outrigger pads.
