Twin-Path Eye & Eye Sling EE This product is made to be an eye and eye sling only. Usually an eye and eye sling is made from a round sling with a sleeve over it to form the eyes at each end. This Twin Path sling is light, strong and less expensive than a round sling with a sleeve. It can be manufactured using either K-Spec® core yarn or polyester. Riggers have told us that they have some applications where they want an eye and eye sling only and this is the one with all of the Twin-Path® features in a strictly eye and eye product.
Twin-Path Sparkeater Slings SE When you have a hot environment up to 300° F, use a Sparkeater® to lift the load without marring the surface of the lifted piece. Also, when doing stage rigging order this product for the protection it gives from exposure to fire, heat, sparks and pyrotechnics. Just specify black color for the theater or yellow for all other applications. These slings are made from Nomex® for the cover and Aramid high performance core yarns. Available in capacities of 2,000 to 30,000 Ibs. When lifting heated steel, wire rope or chain slings might scratch the load causing expensive rework. Fire exposure testing was performed by the Offshore Certification Bureau and the product was identified as being as good as wire rope or chain for use in off shore applications in the oil industry.
