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 />

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.

<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 />

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 />
