SLING LEG OPTIONS<br />

Standard End Fitting Combinations<br />

To order sling legs, choose the correct size from the tables on the following pages. Determine the length needed and<br />

specify the end fittings required from the list of combinations shown below. Two, three, and four leg spreaders will be<br />

fabricated with oblong Master links, unless otherwise specified.<br />

<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> <strong>Slings</strong><br />

MULTI-PART WIRE ROPE SLINGS<br />

<strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Rigging</strong> and <strong>Tools</strong> Multi-Part slings are flexible, snug up tightly around the load in choker hitches, and quickly regain<br />

shape after a lift. They also offer outstanding handling characteristics, particularly in the larger rated capacities. When<br />

loaded, stress is equally distributed to all rope parts in the sling body due to the helical manner in which ropes are laid<br />

together.<br />

Braided slings are formed by continuously plaiting, or braiding, several ropes together to form the sling body and both eyes<br />

in a single fabrication operation. Ends of individual ropes are usually hand-tucked or mechanically spliced into component<br />

ropes of the body. Eyes are wrapped and given a rubberized coating since eyes are not braided.<br />

Braided slings are often selected where loads must be rolled or maneuvered, since the design creates friction to grip loads<br />

and resist rotation.<br />

MULTI-PART BODY<br />

BRAIDED<br />

CONSTRUCTION<br />

High flexibility is achieved by<br />

braiding, or plaiting, one or more<br />

wire ropes to form a fabric for the<br />

sling body. Component ropes run<br />

continuously through body and<br />

eyes, ends are hand-tucked into<br />

sling body or secured with pressed<br />

sleeves. 6-part sling is flat, 8-part<br />

sling is round.<br />

4, 5 and 7-part Multi-part slings<br />

with either mechanical or hand eye<br />

splices are available on special order.<br />

HAND SPLICE<br />

Each sling is hand fabricated by<br />

laying together one or more ropes<br />

in a helical manner, so component<br />

ropes run continuously through the<br />

eyes and sling body. Ends are<br />

secured into component rope by<br />

hand-tucked splices.<br />

BRAIDED<br />

MECHANICAL SPLICE<br />

Three wire ropes are helically laid<br />

by hand to form a 3-part fabric,<br />

from which sling bodies of 3 or 9<br />

parts may be made by helically<br />

laying one or three parts of fabric<br />

together. Mechanical splices form<br />

the eyes that provide centerline pull<br />

along the sling body. Same number<br />

of rope parts in the sling eyes as in<br />

the body. Each sling is proof loaded<br />

before shipment.

CUSTOM SOCKET ASSEMBLIES<br />

<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> <strong>Slings</strong><br />

<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> assemblies with fittings permanently attached at ends are custom fabricated for use as boom pendants,<br />

guylines, raising lines, backstays, lifting spreaders, etc. These are offered in both poured, or spelter, sockets and<br />

mechanically swaged sockets. A Design Factor of five is applied in establishing Rated Capacities shown.<br />

EPOXY COMPOUND SPELTER SOCKET<br />

Epoxy compound is standard as the bonding medium<br />

surrounding wires inside the socket. Steel forgings are used for<br />

rope sizes 1/2" through 1-1/2", and cast steel fittings for larger<br />

sizes. Larger than 4" available on special order. Assembly length<br />

is measured from centerline of pin for open sockets and bearing<br />

point for closed sockets.<br />

CUSTOM SOCKET ASSEMBLIES<br />

Indicate choice of end fittings on purchase orders by the suffixes “OS” or “CS” after the stock number, for open or closed<br />

type fittings. Pins and cotters are supplied as standard on open fittings, but assemblies may be specified without pins.<br />

Fittings will be assembled in the same plane unless specified otherwise on the order.<br />

SWAGED SOCKET<br />

In mechanically swaged fittings, high pressure presses and<br />

precision dies cause metal of the socket to flow around wires<br />

and strands to offer the ultimate in compactness and<br />

strength with minimum weight. Material is weldless, dropforged<br />

steel. Normally, only regular lay rope is used. Swaged<br />

assemblies are interchangeable with poured sockets up<br />

through 2" rope diameters. Assembly length is measured<br />

from centerline of pins for both open and closed sockets.<br />

TUFFY TRI-BRAID SLINGS<br />

<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Rope</strong> <strong>Slings</strong><br />

TUFF AND FLEXIBLE SLINGS, FOR YOUR TOUGHEST, MOST DEMANDING LOADS<br />

Unmatched Flexibility<br />

The unique 3x3 strand design of all Tuffy tri-braid slings consists of a patented<br />

machine-braided wire fabric with interlaced construction, resulting in flexibility<br />

and abrasion resistance far superior to standard rope strands. Made of industrialgrade<br />

steel and constructed with the highest quality standards, only Tuffy slings<br />

possess the perfect balance of strength, flexibility and durability.<br />

Longer Service Life<br />

Because machine braiding produces proper balancing of all parts, the outcome is<br />

a highly efficient sling with a much longer service life. Even if one of the braided<br />

parts is cut or broken, there is no stranding. Durable and reliable, Tuffy tri-braid<br />

slings perform to unprecedented standards, keeping working environments more<br />

productive and effective.<br />

Quicker and Easier Loading<br />

Workers now have an easy-to-handle tool that significantly eases and speeds the<br />

hitching and unhitching process. Tuffy's flexibility enables greater sling control,<br />

and the unique construction yields a safer, more secure sling, significantly less<br />

prone to dangerous recoils and breakage.<br />

Complete Knot and Kink Resistance<br />

Tuffy Tri-braid slings are virtually impervious to kinking and knotting due to the<br />

machine-braided and interlaced construction. Nothing short of a vice can leave a<br />

mark on a Tuffy sling, and even then the ridge simply straightens out with no<br />

material damage. Where a standard sling's strength can be canceled out if<br />

stiffness imposes abnormal fatigue which saps the sling's endurance, the<br />

flexibility and balance built into every tri-braid sling renders this issue obsolete.<br />
