Grooved Magnetic Lifting Sling Protection | 18″W
If you frequently lift steel plates or I-beams, don’t settle for a standard sling protector. Choose one that is specifically designed to connect with the plate edge or I-beam flange by choosing this grooved LiftGuard™ protector.
It has a 1/2″ groove, making it compatible with plate edges or flanges of the same size.
Along with the groove, this protector attaches to your load using magnets, ensuring a secure connection every time. The magnets are recessed to protect painted surfaces.
LiftGuard™ Construction
These LiftGuard™ products are made from High-Performance Cast Nylon (HPCN). This material is strong enough to withstand the high pressures generated through the lifting process, and will provide excellent abrasion- and wear-resistance.
It’s also lightweight – this product is 1/7th the weight of steel!
Working Load Limit
The working load limit is 6,250 lbs. per inch of synthetic sling width. To get the full capacity, the protector must be in 100% contact with both the vertical and horizontal load surfaces.
The maximum capacity is 100,000 lbs. based on maximum sling width. To calculate the WLL of your setup, multiply the strap width by the base working load limit (6,250). So if your strap is 4″ wide, 4 x 6,250 gives a WLL of 25,000 lbs.
