Large Loads Require Large Slings Whatever the load you are lifting. YuanBo Wire Rope Factory can supply a steel wire rope sling to do the task. Sling up to 12" (305mm) diameter can be supplied with minimum braking loads up to tons. There are three distinct types of Wire Rope Sling.

- True endless cable laid grommet slings. with eyes seized in each end.

Our factory can offer both Hand spliced and our methods of terminating cable laid slings. The Wire Rope Sling offers the following advantages:
- Slings can be manufactured to closer length tolerance than those normally quoted for hand splicing.
- The Stretch of the eye and termination is reduced because there are no splicing tucks which will pull down under load.
- Slings of shorter length can be produced. again because there is length of splice to be considered.
- Wire Rope Sling offers 90% terminal each efficiency as against 75% with conventional hand spliced cable laid slings.
