How to determine the required Working Load Limit (WLL)

The Method and Angle of use of the sling determines the Load Lifting capacity of the sling.

Precautions

  • Angle of inclination of the lifting gear must not exceed 60°.
  • Identifies sharp edges and protects contact areas

Careful! Sharp edges

Sharp edges pose a high risk for lifting operations.
