This Rigger’s Handbook is dedicated to Theodore C. <strong>Hanes</strong>, the founder of <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong>.Ted left us on August 11, 1997. We know it is appropriate that the history of <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong>should be told by Ted. His hard work, common sense and dedication enabled <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong>to move forward <strong>in</strong>to the next millennium.“It all started when Tex McLaughl<strong>in</strong> taught me how to splice cable <strong>in</strong> order to obta<strong>in</strong>my Federal A and E Aircraft Mechanics License #8867 on May 1, 1930. After leav<strong>in</strong>gAmerican Airways August 20, 1936 to become a Professional Firefighter, I soonlearned that splic<strong>in</strong>g cable for local contractor friends like Herb Darl<strong>in</strong>g andHoward Stimm put extra bread on the table.Soon we had to take operations <strong>in</strong>to larger quarters at 23 Poplar Avenue. In 1962 wemoved to the warehouse at 1294 Seneca Street, giv<strong>in</strong>g us the space for a larger Sl<strong>in</strong>gShop and also the ability to be an Allied Products <strong>Supply</strong> House with more productsand quicker, better service.Our new 55,000 square feet warehouse at 55 James E. Casey Drive enables us tostock even more products to better service our customers. The <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g numberof <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> customers <strong>in</strong> Central New York State conv<strong>in</strong>ced us to open ournew Rochester Warehouse. <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> is committed to mak<strong>in</strong>g the moves to givethe best possible service to all of our customers.On October 1, 1975 I retired as a Battalion Chief from the Buffalo Fire Departmentenabl<strong>in</strong>g me to devote more time to the company until my son Bill could take thewheel. Bill graduated <strong>in</strong> June 1980 as a Civil Eng<strong>in</strong>eer from the State University atBuffalo and is now President of <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. Hav<strong>in</strong>g been around watch<strong>in</strong>gDad s<strong>in</strong>ce he was 9 years old, he thoroughly knows the wire rope bus<strong>in</strong>ess.In association with his friends Dennis St. Germa<strong>in</strong> and Jim Boyco, Bill and the<strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> Crew have learned many modern improvements <strong>in</strong> sl<strong>in</strong>g productions.Many thanks to our hard work<strong>in</strong>g staff led by our Operations Manager andson-<strong>in</strong>-law Dave Learn, Retired Office Manager Herm<strong>in</strong>e Bruno, my other sonTed <strong>Hanes</strong>, II and my late wife Nellie C. <strong>Hanes</strong> who have all been very valuableassets to our bus<strong>in</strong>ess.”Ted <strong>Hanes</strong>, 1996Ted had many other accomplishments <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g be<strong>in</strong>g a Buffalo Firefighter for 39 years,retir<strong>in</strong>g as Battalion Chief <strong>in</strong> 1975. Dur<strong>in</strong>g WWII, Ted served <strong>in</strong> the Coast Guard Reserve. Tedwas Commodore of the Buffalo Yacht Club <strong>in</strong> 1957 and Master of his Masonic Lodge <strong>in</strong> 1950.Ted and Nellie had five children <strong>in</strong> the 1950’s. When most couples would be th<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>gof retirement, they were busy provid<strong>in</strong>g the best home and education for their children.Work was never a four letter word to Ted. Long days and nights of work<strong>in</strong>g at <strong>Hanes</strong> Mar<strong>in</strong>eand Cable and the Buffalo Fire Department were common. He spent countless hours mak<strong>in</strong>g<strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> by walk<strong>in</strong>g around the rigger’s vise. His strength and determ<strong>in</strong>ation built <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong><strong>in</strong>to what it is today. He also had the strength to pass the company to the next generation.Your memory and leadership will never leave us. Special thanks to a great man who we areproud to have had as our father. God bless you.Thank you,Bill <strong>Hanes</strong>/Dave Learn/Ted <strong>Hanes</strong> II

It is made with K-Spec ® high performance fibers, and it has a bulked nylonouter cover (Covermax ® ) that is very abrasion resistant.These are made <strong>in</strong> sizes up to 500,000 lbs. vertical ratedcapacity. Extra Heavy Duty Covermax ® is used on 40,000lb. vertical capacity and higher. All of these <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> haveoverload tell-tails, <strong>in</strong>ner red cover, and are used worldwide<strong>in</strong> place of cha<strong>in</strong> and wire rope <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> for heavy lifts.Also, they are repairable. They have fiber optics for <strong>in</strong>spection.The Tw<strong>in</strong>-Path ® patented design provides the rigger withredundant protection <strong>in</strong> the event that one path is cut. These <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>have 1% stretch at rated capacity and are made <strong>in</strong> matched lengths.These <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> conform to ASME B30.9 Chapter six and US Navy NAV-FAC P-307 Section 14. The safety and <strong>in</strong>spection features found only<strong>in</strong> Tw<strong>in</strong>-Path ® products were created to overcome shortfalls riggersfound <strong>in</strong> s<strong>in</strong>gle path round<strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>. See page 6.CHECK-FAST ® INSPECTION SYSTEMUS Patent Pend<strong>in</strong>g 60/683,987The ✓Fast ® System is designed to improvejob-site safety. The ✓Fast ® Tag and ExternalWarn<strong>in</strong>g Indicator (EWI) on a roundsl<strong>in</strong>gproduct provides for a pass/fail <strong>in</strong>spection ofthe <strong>in</strong>ternal load bear<strong>in</strong>g core yarn. Damageto the core yarn from fiber on fiber abrasion,fatigue, and severe overload can be detected. If the sl<strong>in</strong>g is mistakenlyoverloaded beyond rated capacity, the EWI is designed to disappear beforethe sl<strong>in</strong>g fails. The <strong>in</strong>spector no longer has to feel and squeezearound the entire sl<strong>in</strong>g to guess if the core has been severely overloaded.This safety system is available for polyester or High PerformanceK-Spec ® Fiber Round<strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> fabricated by authorized Sl<strong>in</strong>gmax ®Dealers. See pages 7.SPARKEATER ® SYNTHETIC SLINGSUS Patent #4,850,629 CN #1,280,458SE When you have a hot environment up to 300°F, use aSparkeater ® to lift the load without marr<strong>in</strong>g the surface ofthe lifted piece. Also, when do<strong>in</strong>g stage rigg<strong>in</strong>g order thisproduct for the protection it gives from exposure to fire,heat, sparks and pyrotechnics. Just specify black color forthe theater or yellow for all other applications. These <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> are madewith Aramid high performance core yarns. Available <strong>in</strong> capacities of2,000 to 90,000 lbs. When lift<strong>in</strong>g heated steel, wire rope or cha<strong>in</strong> <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>might scratch the load caus<strong>in</strong>g expensive rework. Fire exposure test<strong>in</strong>gwas performed by London Scientific and the product was identifiedas be<strong>in</strong>g as good as wire rope or cha<strong>in</strong> for use <strong>in</strong> off-shore applications<strong>in</strong> the oil <strong>in</strong>dustry.

Consideration shall be given to angle of lift whichmay affect the lift<strong>in</strong>g capacity. Diameters of p<strong>in</strong>s and edges also may affect the capacity of the lift<strong>in</strong>gsl<strong>in</strong>g.7.4 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs used <strong>in</strong> a choker shall not be forced to tighten around the load by pound<strong>in</strong>g with hammers or otherobjects. Choker hitches are the least effective way to use a sl<strong>in</strong>g based on capacity. Two chokers shouldbe used to balance the load. One choker <strong>in</strong> the center of the load may create an unbalanced situationwhich could lead to an accident.7.5 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs used <strong>in</strong> a basket hitch must have the load balanced to prevent slippage and accidents.7.6 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs used with fitt<strong>in</strong>gs shall be compatible with the fitt<strong>in</strong>gs used. The lift<strong>in</strong>g capacity shallbe rated at thelower of the fitt<strong>in</strong>g or sl<strong>in</strong>g. Fitt<strong>in</strong>g open<strong>in</strong>gs shall be of the proper shape and size to assure that the sl<strong>in</strong>gwill seat properly.7.7 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs shall be protected from cutt<strong>in</strong>g and edges. All protrusions and abrasive surfaces will be kept fromcontact with the sl<strong>in</strong>g. Where unavoidable situations develop padd<strong>in</strong>g shall be placed between the sl<strong>in</strong>gand the load. The p<strong>in</strong> area of a shackle can cause synthetic <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> to cut and plac<strong>in</strong>g synthetic<strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> on the p<strong>in</strong> should be avoided unless it is protected.7.8 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs shall not be dragged on the floor or drawn across other surfaces which may damage the sl<strong>in</strong>g.7.9 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs shall not be twisted or tied <strong>in</strong> knots to shorten.7.10 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs shall not be pulled from under loads rest<strong>in</strong>g on the sl<strong>in</strong>g.7.11 Do not drop objects on <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> or run over them with vehicles.7.12 Sl<strong>in</strong>gs which are damaged shall not be used.7.13 Sl<strong>in</strong>g hitches must provide control of the load.7.14 Portions of the human body shall be kept from between the sl<strong>in</strong>g and the load and from between the sl<strong>in</strong>gand any attachment to lift<strong>in</strong>g devices such as hooks.7.15 Personnel shall stand clear of suspended loads.7.16 Personnel shall not ride on the sl<strong>in</strong>g or suspended loads.7.17 Avoid snatch or shock load<strong>in</strong>g.7.18 Twist<strong>in</strong>g and k<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g the legs of the sl<strong>in</strong>g shall be avoided.7.19 Load applied to the hook should be centered <strong>in</strong> the bowl of the hooks.

Only legibly marked or labeled <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> must be used.If the tag is not legible, or miss<strong>in</strong>g, the sl<strong>in</strong>g must not be used.7.24 Keep labels or tags away from the load, the hook and the angle of choke.7.25 Synthetic <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> should be <strong>in</strong>spected each time before each lift.8.0 - Environmental Considerations8.1 When not <strong>in</strong> use, synthetic <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> should be stored <strong>in</strong> a clean dry place. Heat sources and non-ventilatedplaces should be avoided.8.2 Chemically active environments can affect the strength of synthetic lift<strong>in</strong>g <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>. Different chemicals willreact with different exposure to Covermax ® bulked nylon, polyester, aramids, and Olef<strong>in</strong>s.Aramids are resistant to most ketones, alcohols, dry clean<strong>in</strong>g solvents and many other organic solvents. Its acidresistance is superior to that of nylon but is not as good as that of polyester. Aramids show good resistance toalkalis at room temperature, but is degraded by strong alkalis at higher temperatures.Aramids are compatible with fluor<strong>in</strong>e-conta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g elastomers, res<strong>in</strong>s, and refrigerants at high temperatures,and is resistant to fluor<strong>in</strong>e compounds <strong>in</strong> concentrations usually encountered <strong>in</strong> stack gases from metallurgicaland rock-process<strong>in</strong>g operations.The resistance of aramids to oxides of sulphur at temperatures above the acid dew po<strong>in</strong>t is superior to that ofpolyester. Below the dew po<strong>in</strong>t, concentrated sulphuric acid may condense on the fiber and cause a progressiveloss <strong>in</strong> strength.In moderate to strong acid or alkali environments, evaluation of aramids should be made to ensure that the yarnwill perform acceptably before use.Polyester and nylon are not significantly affected by most compounds of the follow<strong>in</strong>g classes: Alcohols, DryClean<strong>in</strong>g Solvents, Halogenated Hydrocarbons, Ketones, Soaps and Synthetic Detergents, and Water(<strong>Inc</strong>lud<strong>in</strong>g Sea Water).Polyester also shows good to excellent resistance to:• Aqueous solutions of most weak acids at the boil, and to most strong acids at room temperature,but is dis<strong>in</strong>tegrated by concentrated (95%) sulphuric acid at room temperature.• Aqueous solutions of strong alkalis at room temperature, but is degraded at the boil.• Oxidiz<strong>in</strong>g agents, and is not degraded by bleach<strong>in</strong>g treatments ord<strong>in</strong>arily used for textiles.Nylon is not significantly affected by most aldehydes, alkalis, ethers, or hydrocarbons, but is deteriorated bydilute acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid <strong>in</strong> 10% concentrations at room temperature cause anoticeable loss <strong>in</strong> break<strong>in</strong>g strength <strong>in</strong> 10 hours).HEADQUARTERS: 55 James E.

Like a giant hand, Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs grasp and holdthe load <strong>in</strong> a strong, gentle grip when used <strong>in</strong> a choke hitch... safely and gently cradle it on a broad, flatsurface <strong>in</strong> a basket hitch.Whatever the size or shape of the load you handle – rounds, flats, hexes or squares--Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs canreduce load damage <strong>in</strong> production or shipp<strong>in</strong>g, provide greater safety for load and operator, cut rigg<strong>in</strong>gand unhitch<strong>in</strong>g time and elim<strong>in</strong>ate the need for two-legged <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>. Here's how –NO LOAD DAMAGE – The unique woven wire construction of Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs consists of a series ofsmooth, spiral wires jo<strong>in</strong>ed together across the body of the sl<strong>in</strong>g. This gives the sl<strong>in</strong>g complete flexibility,enabl<strong>in</strong>g it to bend easily around even irregularly shaped loads and elim<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g the danger of goug<strong>in</strong>g ormarr<strong>in</strong>g edges of the load members. For turned or ground surfaces, PVS or Neoprene-covered <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>assure extremely delicate handl<strong>in</strong>g.SAFE – The wide bear<strong>in</strong>g surface of the Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>g provides better load balance and gripp<strong>in</strong>g power...less crush<strong>in</strong>g effect when handl<strong>in</strong>g hollow tub<strong>in</strong>g or similar parts. Its <strong>in</strong>stant gripp<strong>in</strong>g <strong>action</strong> means there’sno slipp<strong>in</strong>g of shift<strong>in</strong>g when load is applied. All metal construction means there's no core to rot, noth<strong>in</strong>g totear suddenly. Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs will not whip, k<strong>in</strong>k or tangle, and there are no loose strands to snag load oroperator. As for rigg<strong>in</strong>g and hitch<strong>in</strong>g, a s<strong>in</strong>gle man can easily do the job.STRONG – Thousands of spiral wire loops <strong>in</strong> a transverse construction give Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs exceptionallylong life. Should a s<strong>in</strong>gle wire break, the slack is absorbed by the rest of the sl<strong>in</strong>g. Gripper Sl<strong>in</strong>gs arepretested and guaranteed to meet load specifications. Standard lengths and widths with capacities upto 100,000 lbs. are available.

If sufficient leveragecannot be obta<strong>in</strong>ed us<strong>in</strong>g the lever type load b<strong>in</strong>der byitself, a ratchet type b<strong>in</strong>der should be used.• If the above recommendation is disregarded and a cheaterpipe is used, it must closely fit the handle and must slide downthe handle until the handle projections are contacted. The pipeshould be secured to the handle, for example, by a p<strong>in</strong>, sothat the pipe cannot fly off the handle if you lose control andlet go.

If exposed, wash thoroughly and <strong>in</strong>spect before us<strong>in</strong>g.Watch for battery and build<strong>in</strong>g clean<strong>in</strong>g acids, caustic soda and pa<strong>in</strong>t. Keep rats away.Stop Unnecessary WearOuter and <strong>in</strong>ner rope fibers contribute equally to the strength of your rope. If worn out, therope is naturally weakened. Elim<strong>in</strong>ate rubb<strong>in</strong>g, dragg<strong>in</strong>g or work<strong>in</strong>g over rough surfaces.Protect its surface with chaf<strong>in</strong>g gear, such as canvas wrapped and tied around the rope.Pad corners of sharp objects when lift<strong>in</strong>g, and avoid stra<strong>in</strong> on sharp bends. Remove k<strong>in</strong>ksif they form.To Uncoil RopeA new coil of rope should be placed flat on its side with the "tag" <strong>in</strong>side end down. Removethe outside lash<strong>in</strong>gs and unfasten the <strong>in</strong>side bands. Leave burlap around the coil to keeprope clean.Reach down through the eye of coil and pull out the <strong>in</strong>side end, where tag is attached,through the eye of the coil.Store it ProperlyKeep <strong>in</strong> dry, cool place with good air circulation. Use wooden grat<strong>in</strong>g on concrete or steelfloors, and keep away from steam pipes and metal walls. Protect from prolonged exposureto sunlight. Store only clean, dry rope.Use Right SheavesBlock sizes or sheaves should be eight times the diameter of the rope. For power transmissionor for use with cont<strong>in</strong>uous load, sheaves should be at least forty times the diameter ofthe rope. Small sheaves cause added friction and rope wear. Keep sheaves smooth.Watch Rope ConditionInspect rope frequently, whether work<strong>in</strong>g or <strong>in</strong> storage. Occasionally reverse your rope,end-to-end, to distribute the wear more evenly.Use worn rope only where strength failure will not cause <strong>in</strong>jury or damage.*All ropes will last longer if given proper care and handl<strong>in</strong>g, storage and use.These are the more important po<strong>in</strong>ts to keep <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d to assure greatest service and safety.HEADQUARTERS: 55 James E.

These are approximate average break<strong>in</strong>gstrengths and are subject to a plus or m<strong>in</strong>us 5% test<strong>in</strong>g tolerance.Advertised break<strong>in</strong>g strengths are determ<strong>in</strong>ed by the standardcordage test<strong>in</strong>g and do not cover conditions such as susta<strong>in</strong>edloads or shock load<strong>in</strong>g. These strengths are atta<strong>in</strong>ed under laboratoryconditions. Remember also, that this is a break<strong>in</strong>g strength--not a recommended work<strong>in</strong>g load capacity. (See next paragraphfor work<strong>in</strong>g load factors.)assIGneD WoRkInG loaD factoRsWill vary <strong>in</strong> accordance with vary<strong>in</strong>g safety practices and policiesof different utilities and <strong>in</strong>dustrial users. However, our recommendation,and one that is fairly well accepted <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>dustry, isa m<strong>in</strong>imum 5:1 work<strong>in</strong>g load factor. Thus, your maximum workload should be approximately 20% of the quoted break<strong>in</strong>gstrength. This factor will provide greater safety and extended servicelife of the w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e. A low work<strong>in</strong>g load factor is not only dangerous,but poor economy as it overworks the fibers and shortensthe life of the l<strong>in</strong>e.DIelectRIc PRoPeRtIesBraided Wr<strong>in</strong>ch L<strong>in</strong>es have been described as a "non-conductor".It is our hope that it is never turned over to a l<strong>in</strong>e crew on theseterms. It is important to note that most quoted Dielectric Propertiesare results obta<strong>in</strong>ed from new, clean rope, and hold true onlyunder such ideal conditions. Dirt, grease, other foriegn matter andmoisture, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g humidity, will all alter the non-conductivity/conductivityof this or any other synthetic rope or material.sHaRP cUttInG eDGesBraided w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>es should not be exposed to sharp edges andsurface such as metal burrs on W<strong>in</strong>ch Drums, sheaves, shackles,thimbles, wire <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>, etc. Braided W<strong>in</strong>ch L<strong>in</strong>es are made fromsynthetic fibers, and as such, can be cut and damaged by sharpedges. When <strong>in</strong>stall<strong>in</strong>g w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>es on old truck units, great caremust be exercised to assure that the rope is not com<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> contactwith hardware that has been scored and chewed by previouslyused wire l<strong>in</strong>es. Sheaves, shackles, thimbles, etc. should, <strong>in</strong> mostcases, be replaced. Other metal surfaces should be carefully exam<strong>in</strong>edand dressed if necessary.attacHInG lIne to W<strong>Inc</strong>H DRUMThere are various methods of attach<strong>in</strong>g a w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e to a w<strong>in</strong>chdrum: the use of a wedge or plug and set screw <strong>in</strong> the ma<strong>in</strong> bodyof the drum, or "U" bolt through the side of the flange. Anothermethod <strong>in</strong>volves weld<strong>in</strong>g a round plug to the w<strong>in</strong>ch drum. The softeye at the bitter end of the w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e is placed over the plug andheld <strong>in</strong> place with a flat keeper which is screwed <strong>in</strong> flush with thetop of the plug. Be sure the attachment method does not have asharp edge that will cut the l<strong>in</strong>e under load. If possible, it is advisableto have an eye splice <strong>in</strong> both ends of the W<strong>in</strong>ch L<strong>in</strong>e sothat it can be reversed <strong>in</strong> the event of damage to one end. This isnot always possible, depend<strong>in</strong>g on the method of attachment tothe w<strong>in</strong>ch drum, and whether or not a closed thimble is spliced<strong>in</strong>to the eye. If an eye is not used at the drum end, then this endshould be tightly whipped with a strong <strong>tw<strong>in</strong></strong>e. Important: The endconnection is not designed to carry any load, so at least fourwraps should always be kept on the drum.DeteRMInInG lenGtH of RoPe tHat canbe PUt on a W<strong>Inc</strong>HThe formula for rope capacity on a w<strong>in</strong>ch drum is:Length to be stored = A(B2 - C2)15.3 x dia of rope 2A, B, C, and diameter are <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>ches.FlangeDiameterenD-foR-enDInGIt is recommended that every w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e be rotated End-forEnd ona periodic basis.

Also, avoid sharp bends <strong>in</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>e wherepossible as this will also greatly reduce strength.stItcH lockInG eYe sPlIcesStitch lock<strong>in</strong>g may prove advantageous on some splices to preventno-load open<strong>in</strong>g due to mishandl<strong>in</strong>g.Material required – about one (1) fid length of Nylon Whipp<strong>in</strong>gTw<strong>in</strong>e approximately the same size as the strands <strong>in</strong> the size ropeyou are stitch lock<strong>in</strong>g.

Someconcern has been created by various reports published on thissubject (and by erroneous <strong>in</strong>terpretations drawn from these reports).Polyester fibers are the least affected by ultraviolet exposure, andresult<strong>in</strong>g strength degradation of exposed fibers is negligible.Nylon is more susceptible to strength loss due to ultraviolet rays;but, with both fibers, the degree of susceptibility to ultraviolet damageis dependent upon the type of fiber, and the various ultraviolet<strong>in</strong>hibitors with which they are treated by the fiber manufacturer.The important po<strong>in</strong>t to note here is that ultraviolet rays have lowpenetration <strong>in</strong> synthetic fibers, thus it is only the outer surfacefibers that are affected.HaRMfUl cHeMIcalsCerta<strong>in</strong> chemicals will break down synthetic fibers. To be avoidedare sulfuric acids, alkalies, or chlor<strong>in</strong>ate hydrocarbons over 160°F;strong clean<strong>in</strong>g agents or bleaches may be harmful.HEADQUARTERS: 55 James E.

W<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>esYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTcleanInGSometimes utilities have adopted the very good practice of carry<strong>in</strong>gat all times, a spare (clean and dry) w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e enclosed <strong>in</strong> aplastic bag, enabl<strong>in</strong>g crews <strong>in</strong> the field to quickly replace a damaged,soiled or wet w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e. Samson w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>es can bewashed <strong>in</strong> a mild detergent and warm water, r<strong>in</strong>sed and air-dried.The polyester fibers themselves actually absorb only a negligibleamount of water, but water trapped between the fibers should besqueezed out (by plac<strong>in</strong>g the l<strong>in</strong>e under tension) and air-dried.sHock loaDInGShock load<strong>in</strong>g of any l<strong>in</strong>e – synthetic, manila, or wire – producesa drastically different set of physical properties and results ascompared with normal load<strong>in</strong>g. Shock load<strong>in</strong>g, most simply described,is a "jerk<strong>in</strong>g" or "snatch<strong>in</strong>g" or a l<strong>in</strong>e. Or, a very suddenchange <strong>in</strong> tension – from a state of relaxation or low load to oneof high load. This results <strong>in</strong> accelerated wear<strong>in</strong>g.A typical shock load on a w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e occurs when an object is liftedvertically with a sudden jerk, or when this load is suddenlydropped. A 5,000 pound load, under these conditions, may then"weigh" 30,000 pounds – and break a w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>e rated <strong>in</strong> thisstrength range.A 4" sudden drop – as off a platform – can actually double theload. Similarly, an over-wrap "fall<strong>in</strong>g off" the w<strong>in</strong>ch drum can result<strong>in</strong> a 50% shock load.Assume that you have seven identical ropes – each with a 30,000lb. break<strong>in</strong>g strength – and you work these ropes daily – eachrope lift<strong>in</strong>g a different load, as below – for example, <strong>in</strong> a w<strong>in</strong>ch l<strong>in</strong>eapplication:WoRkInG no. of lIftsbReakInG WoRkInG loaD befoRestRenGtH loaD factoR faIlURe*1. 30,000 lbs. 5,000 lbs. 6/1 1,0002. 30,000 lbs. 6,000 lbs. 5/1 7503. 30,000 lbs. 7,500 lbs. 4/1 5004. 30,000 lbs. 10,000 lbs. 3/1 3005. 30,000 lbs. 15,000 lbs. 2/1 1006. 30,000 lbs. 20,000 lbs. 1.5/1 257. 30,000 lbs. 28,000 lbs. 1.1/1 5*Relative values onlyThis illustration clearly shows the higher the Work<strong>in</strong>g Load Factorthe greater the Service Life, and the lower the replacement factor.Thus, a Work<strong>in</strong>g Load Factor also related directly as an "EconomyFactor."Your may turn this around and look at it another way: If you're alwayslift<strong>in</strong>g the same weight; then, the stronger the rope (andhigher the Work<strong>in</strong>g Load Factor) – the longer the rope will last.<strong>in</strong> order to prolong the life of the l<strong>in</strong>e and reduce premature downgrad<strong>in</strong>g. If there is reason to believe that a l<strong>in</strong>e has been shockloaded above its recommended work<strong>in</strong>g load, it should be logged;and if a number of these occur, the l<strong>in</strong>e should be rotated and<strong>in</strong>spected.VIsUal InsPectIonThe load-bear<strong>in</strong>g capacity of Double Braided Ropes are dividedequally between the <strong>in</strong>ner core and the outer cover – thus, despitedamage to the outer cover strands, you have an <strong>in</strong>tact <strong>in</strong>nercore capable of support<strong>in</strong>g approximately 50% of the appliedload... an important reserve safety factor. Spectron II has 100% ofits load bear<strong>in</strong>g capacity accomplished by the core.DIscaRD PoIntCont<strong>in</strong>ued use and normal wear <strong>in</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>e gradually dim<strong>in</strong>ishesthe ultimate bear<strong>in</strong>g strength and lowers the factor of safety. Indeterm<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g the proper discard time of Braided W<strong>in</strong>ch L<strong>in</strong>es, thefollow<strong>in</strong>g guides are suggested:a. If as many as 1/2 of the cover strands are cut at a givenpo<strong>in</strong>t, this damaged section should be cut out. If with<strong>in</strong> 10 feetof the eye, put <strong>in</strong> a new eye splice. If over 10 feet, rejo<strong>in</strong> therope with a Standard End-for-End Splice. The rope can then beput back <strong>in</strong>to normal operation. A few damaged strands spacedout along the rope at <strong>in</strong>tervals is no real cause for immediateconcern, but should be watched and periodically exam<strong>in</strong>ed.b. If the <strong>in</strong>dividual cover strands have been worn down afterextended use to with<strong>in</strong> 50% of their orig<strong>in</strong>al bulk over anextended area of the l<strong>in</strong>e, then the l<strong>in</strong>e should be discarded (orassigned to a less critical task). This can best be determ<strong>in</strong>ed byan exam<strong>in</strong>ation and comparison of the bulk of an <strong>in</strong>dividualstrand which is exposed and subject to wear with the samestrand where it crosses under other strands and is protected(and therefore is full size).c. Another guide for determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g discard time is when the ropehas a residual strength of 50% of its orig<strong>in</strong>al new rope strength.This can be determ<strong>in</strong>ed through laboratory tensile strengthbreak tests. This can be done by <strong>Hanes</strong> <strong>Supply</strong>.

YOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTHilman RollersGUIDELINES FOR SELECTING THE PROPER MODEL1. How much does the load weigh?2. How many contact po<strong>in</strong>ts does the load have? The Hilman rollers are rated <strong>in</strong> metric tons. Divide thenumber of contact po<strong>in</strong>ts <strong>in</strong>to the total load to determ<strong>in</strong>e the capacity of <strong>in</strong>dividual rollers. Determ<strong>in</strong>e if the loadis equally distributed or unbalanced. If unbalanced, some rollers may carry more load and some less.3. What is the roll<strong>in</strong>g surface and its condition? The roll<strong>in</strong>g surface should be hard and level, and free of debris.Where the surface is not hard such as asphalt or dirt, a track or steel plate can be used as the roll<strong>in</strong>gsurface. If the surface is not level, there must be a hold-back system on the load to brake and control it. If thefloor is composed of a delicate surface, then specify Nyton rollers which are coated to soften the roller contact.4. Are there turns <strong>in</strong>volved or is it a straight l<strong>in</strong>e move? If there are turns, rollers with swivels or swivels with alock<strong>in</strong>g top are suggested. If no turns, then a rigid style top is f<strong>in</strong>e.Rollers are available <strong>in</strong> sizes rang<strong>in</strong>g from 1/2 to 3,000 tons. Riggers kits which consist of four rollers, steer<strong>in</strong>ghandles and various tops are available if mov<strong>in</strong>g loads with rollers is a common task. The kit comes completewith a lock<strong>in</strong>g steel box. A riggers set is the same as a kit without the steel box.HILMAN DELUXE KITS• Steel or Nyton Cha<strong>in</strong>14 guagesteelcarry<strong>in</strong>gcaseMove and position all types of heavy equipmentHilman Rollersprovide maximumturn<strong>in</strong>g optionsRaised base preventscorrosion andprovides forkliftload<strong>in</strong>gTwo full-length steer<strong>in</strong>ghandles knock-downfor storageHEADQUARTERS: 55 James E.

Wire RopeYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTROTATION RESISTANTWIRE ROPESIn certa<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>stances the use of rotation resistantwire rope is necessary to provide rotational stabilityto the lifted load. In general, the use of thesespecialized wire ropes is limited to those situationswhere it is impractical to:1. Use a tag l<strong>in</strong>e.2. Relocate rope dead end.3. <strong>Inc</strong>rease sheave sizes.4. Elim<strong>in</strong>ate "odd-part" reev<strong>in</strong>g.5. Significantly reduce rope load<strong>in</strong>g and ropelength.Rotation resistant wire ropes have less of a tendencyto unlay when loaded than do conventionalwire ropes. This results <strong>in</strong> improved rotational stabilityto the lifted load with<strong>in</strong> a safe work<strong>in</strong>g loadrange. Rotation resistant wire ropes are designed<strong>in</strong> such a way that the rotational force of the outerrope is partially counteracted by the rotationalforce of the <strong>in</strong>ner rope when the rope is subjectedto a load.The rated strengths of rotation resistant ropes areless than the conventional 6 x 19 and 6 x 36 Classificationwire ropes, and larger sheaves anddrums are required <strong>in</strong> order to achieve comparablefatigue life. Drum and sheave diametersshould be 34 to 36 times rope diameter for the 19x 7 and 35 x 7 rotation resistant ropes and 21 to27 times rope diameter for 8 x 19 rotation resistantropes.Rotation Resistant Ropes are available <strong>in</strong> a fullrange of sizes, grades and constructions:• Standard constructions for s<strong>in</strong>gle-part and multipartlift<strong>in</strong>g.• Special wire rope constructions for <strong>in</strong>creasedservice life <strong>in</strong> particularly demand<strong>in</strong>g applications– Dyform ® -18 HSLR, Dyform ® 34LR and35LS.note:1.Swivels are not recommended for use with rotationresistant ropes.2.Although B30 standards permit rotation resistantropes to be used under certa<strong>in</strong> conditionsat design factors of 3.5:1, we recommend am<strong>in</strong>imum design factor of 5:1 & a design factorof 7:1 for extended rope life.Dyform ® - 18HslRRotation ResistantFor multi-part lift<strong>in</strong>g.35% greater strength.DYfoRM ® -18 HslRRotatIon ResIstant RoPenoMInal aPPRoX.DIa. stRenGtH* Wt/ft(In.)† (tons) (lbs)3/8 8.3 .277/16 11.2 .371/2 14.6 .519/16 18.5 .645/8 22.7 .793/4 32.4 1.17/8 43.8 1.51 57.5 2.01-1/8 71.5 2.51-1/4 87.9 3.1Dyform ® - 34lRStrongest, most rotationresistant.

Wire RopesYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTABRASION AND BENDINGTHE "X CHART": ABRASION RESISTANCE VS. BENDING-FATIGUE RESISTANCEWhile there is a possibility, there is likelihoodthat an application can be foundfor which there is a precisely suitablewire rope – one that can satisfy every<strong>in</strong>dicated requirement.As with all eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g design problems,feasible solutions demand compromiseto some degree. At times, itbecomes necessary to settle for lessthan optimum resistance to abrasion <strong>in</strong>order to obta<strong>in</strong> maximum flexibility; thelatter be<strong>in</strong>g a more important requirementfor the given job. A typical exampleof this k<strong>in</strong>d of trade-off would be <strong>in</strong>select<strong>in</strong>g a highly flexible rope on anoverhead crane. Conversely, <strong>in</strong> ahaulage <strong>in</strong>stallation, a rope with greaterresistance to abrasion would be chosendespite the fact that such ropes aremarkedly less flexible.tigue, even though actual wear is slight.The smaller the diameter of the sheave,the sooner these fatigue breaks willoccur and the shorter rope life becomes.Another undesirable effect of smallsheaves is accelerated wear of both ropeand sheave groove. The pressure perunit area of rope on sheave groove for agiven load is <strong>in</strong>versely proportional to thesize of the sheave. In other words, thesmaller the sheave the greater the ropepressure per unit area on the groove.Both sheaves and rope life can obviouslybe prolonged by us<strong>in</strong>g the proper diametersheave for the size and constructionof rope.Sheave diameter can also <strong>in</strong>fluence ropestrength. When a wire rope is bent arounda sheave, there is a loss of effectivestrength due to the <strong>in</strong>ability of the<strong>in</strong>dividual strands and wire to adjustthemselves entirely to their changedposition. Tests show that rope strengthefficiency decreases to a markeddegree as the sheave diameter isreduced with respect to the diameter ofthe rope.Therefore, it is evident that a def<strong>in</strong>iterelationship exists between rope serviceand sheave size. As a guide to ropeusers, wire rope manufacturers haveestablished standards for various ropeconstructions.

Wire RopesYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTINSPECTION – THE KEY TO LONGER, SAFER WIRE ROPE USEAny wire rope <strong>in</strong> use should be <strong>in</strong>spected on aregular basis. You have too much at stake <strong>in</strong>lives and equipment to ignore thorough exam<strong>in</strong>ationof the rope at prescribed <strong>in</strong>tervals.The purpose of <strong>in</strong>spection is to accurately estimatethe service life and strength rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>a rope so that maximum service can be hadwith<strong>in</strong> the limits of safety. Results of the <strong>in</strong>spectionshould be recorded to provide a historyof rope performance on a particular job. Onmost jobs, wire rope must be replaced beforethere is a risk of failure. A rope broken <strong>in</strong> servicecan destroy mach<strong>in</strong>ery and curtail production.It can also kill.JUST LOOKING AT THE ROPE IS NOT ENOUGHWhen an <strong>in</strong>spector takes a look at a rope, he may see sectionsshow<strong>in</strong>g excessive wear. By flagg<strong>in</strong>g the rope, he canquickly determ<strong>in</strong>e where the rope is rubb<strong>in</strong>g or contact<strong>in</strong>gparts of the equipment, and then repair, replace or modifythe condition caus<strong>in</strong>g wear.Inspections of sheaves is a relatively simple, yet very vitaltask. A sheave groove gauge, usually obta<strong>in</strong>able from a wirerope manufacturer, is used to check the grooves <strong>in</strong> a sheave.Hold the gauge perpendicular to the surface of the groove toobserve properly the groove size and contour, as <strong>in</strong> thisillustration.Because of the great responsibility <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong>ensur<strong>in</strong>g safe rigg<strong>in</strong>g on equipment, the manassigned to <strong>in</strong>spect should know wire rope andits operation thoroughly. Inspections should bemade regularly and the results recorded.When <strong>in</strong>spect<strong>in</strong>g the rope, the condition of thedrum, sheaves, guards, cable clamps and otherend fitt<strong>in</strong>gs should be noted. The condition ofthese parts affects rope wear; any defects detectedshould be repaired.To ensure rope soundness between <strong>in</strong>spections,all workers should participate. The operationcan be most helpful by watch<strong>in</strong>g the ropesunder his control. If any accident <strong>in</strong>volv<strong>in</strong>g theropes occurs, the operator should immediatelyshut down his equipment and report the accidentto his supervisor. The equipment shouldbe <strong>in</strong>spected before resum<strong>in</strong>g operation.The Occupational Safety and Health Act hasmade periodic <strong>in</strong>spection mandatory for mostwire rope applications.Photo shows new gauge and worn sheave.

Wire RopesYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTCOMMON WIRE ROPE ABUSESNeglect and abuse are the two chief enemies ofwire rope life. One costly form of neglect is lack ofproper field lubrication. Abuse takes many forms:improper reel<strong>in</strong>g or unreel<strong>in</strong>g, wrong size or wornsheaves, improper storage, and bad splic<strong>in</strong>g are afew.CONDITION OF MACHINERYWire rope performance depends upon the conditionof the equipment on which it operates; poorly ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>edequipment will usually result <strong>in</strong> reduced ropelife.EFFECTS OF SHOCK-LOADING ANDVIBRATIONThe destructive effects of jerk<strong>in</strong>g or shock-load<strong>in</strong>gare visually noticeable. Vibration has somewhat thesame effect, and is equally destructive. An <strong>in</strong>dividualshock may be slight, but many rapidly repeatedslight shocks can have the effect of several largeshocks.Vibration which occurs directly above a load is oftenunavoidable. "Whipp<strong>in</strong>g" of the section of rope immediatelyabove the load is also common. In thesecases, rapid wire fatigue is possible. For reasons ofsafety, this section should be exam<strong>in</strong>ed regularly.Wire rope failure is usually cumulative. Each repeatedoverstress br<strong>in</strong>gs the rope nearer to failure.Thus, a wire rope may become fatigued to a po<strong>in</strong>tclose to failure under a heavy load, and actually failunder a much lighter load.OVERSTRESSINGIn any hoist<strong>in</strong>g operation, there should be no slack<strong>in</strong> the wire rope when the load is applied. Otherwise,the result<strong>in</strong>g stress will be excessive.Overstress<strong>in</strong>g can also be the result of too-rapid accelerationor deceleration. Wire rope will withstandconsiderable stress if the load is applied slowly. Aswith ord<strong>in</strong>ary <strong>tw<strong>in</strong></strong>e, a quick snap will cause overstress<strong>in</strong>gand breakage. This applies both whenstart<strong>in</strong>g to lift a load, and when br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g it to a stop.CORROSIONCorrosion can seriously shorten wire rope life, bothby metal loss & by formation of corrosion pits <strong>in</strong> thewires. These pits act as stress-concentration po<strong>in</strong>ts<strong>in</strong> the wires <strong>in</strong> much the same manner as do nicks.cRUsHInG.

This extremely poorpractice is an expensive "economy."Because wire rope tends to "set" to the conditionsof its particular operat<strong>in</strong>g job, the differ<strong>in</strong>gbends, abrasions and stresses of anew operation can produce premature failure.Therefore, for a maximum life and efficiency,a rope should be used only on the jobfor which it has been specified.MACHINERY OPERATIONSome operators are harder on their mach<strong>in</strong>erythan others and as a result they get shorterrope life. In certa<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>stances, enough extrawork is done to more than offset the additionalwear-and-tear on equipment and wire rope.The operation may be more efficient from theproduction standpo<strong>in</strong>t as a result, but those <strong>in</strong>charge of rope purchases should be madeaware of the probable reduction <strong>in</strong> rope lifeand <strong>in</strong>creased rope costs.ReVeRse benDInG Runn<strong>in</strong>g this rope over one sheave and underanother caused fatigue breaks <strong>in</strong> wires.eXcessIVe eXPosURe to eleMents.

Wire RopesYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTROPE STRENGTH AND DESIGN FACTORSThe rope strength design factor is the ratio ofthe rated strength of the rope to its operat<strong>in</strong>gstress. If a particular rope has a rated strengthof 100,000 lbs. and is work<strong>in</strong>g under an operat<strong>in</strong>gstress of 20,000 lbs., it has a rope strengthdesign factor of 5. It is operat<strong>in</strong>g at one-fifth or20% of its rated strength.Many codes refer to this factor as the "SafetyFactor" which is a mislead<strong>in</strong>g term, s<strong>in</strong>ce thisratio obviously does not <strong>in</strong>clude the many facetsof an operation which must be considered <strong>in</strong> determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>gsafety.Wire rope is an expendable item – a replacementpart of a mach<strong>in</strong>e or <strong>in</strong>stallation. For economicand other reasons, some <strong>in</strong>stallations requireropes to operate at high stresses (low ropestrength design factors). On some <strong>in</strong>stallationswhere high risk is <strong>in</strong>volved, high rope strength designfactors must be ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>ed. However, operat<strong>in</strong>gand safety codes exist for most applicationsand these codes give specific factors for usage.When a mach<strong>in</strong>e is work<strong>in</strong>g and large dynamicload<strong>in</strong>gs (shock load<strong>in</strong>g) are imparted to the rope,the rope strength design factor will be reducedwhich could result <strong>in</strong> overstress<strong>in</strong>g of the rope.Reduced rope strength design factors frequentlyresult <strong>in</strong> reduced service life of wire rope.o.s.H.a.

YOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTWire RopesROPE STRENGTH AND DESIGN FACTORSUNDERSTAND WHAT THE "LAYS" OF WIREROPE MEAN"Lay" of a wire rope is simply a description of the waywires and strands are placed dur<strong>in</strong>g construction. Rightlay and left lay refer to the direction of strands. Rightlay means that the strands pass from left to right acrossthe rope. Left lay means just the opposite; strands passfrom right to left.Regular lay and lang lay describe the way wires areplaced with<strong>in</strong> each strand. Regular lay means that wires<strong>in</strong> the strands are laid opposite <strong>in</strong> direction to the lay ofthe strands. Lang lay means that wires are laid <strong>in</strong> thesame direction as the lay of the strands.Most of the wire rope used is right lay, regular lay. Thisspecification has the widest range of applications andmeets the requirements of most equipment. In fact,other lay specifications are considered exceptions andmust be requested when order<strong>in</strong>g.to the abuses of bend<strong>in</strong>g over small diameter sheaves,p<strong>in</strong>ch<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> undersize sheave grooves, crush<strong>in</strong>g whenw<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g on drums, and fail<strong>in</strong>g due to excessive rotation.Left lay rope has greatest usage <strong>in</strong> oil fields on rod andtub<strong>in</strong>g l<strong>in</strong>es, blast hole rigs, and spudders where rotationof right lay rope would loosen coupl<strong>in</strong>gs. The rotation ofa left lay rope tightens a standard coupl<strong>in</strong>g.A wire rope is a piece of flexible, multi-wired, strandedmach<strong>in</strong>ery made of many precision parts.Usually a wire rope consists of a core member, aroundwhich a number of multi-wired strands are "laid" or helicallybent. There are two general types of cores forwire rope – fiber cores and wire cores. The fiber coremay be made from natural or synthetic fibers. The wirecore can be an Independent Wire Core (IWRC), orStrand Core (SC).The purpose of the core is to provide support and ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>the position of the outer strands dur<strong>in</strong>g operation.Any number of multi-wired strands may be laid aroundthe core. The most popular arrangement is six strandsaround the core, as this comb<strong>in</strong>ation gives the best balance.The number of wires per strand may vary from 3 to 91,with the majority or wire ropes fall<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to the 7-wire, 19-wire, or 36 wire strand categories.RIGHt laYLENGTH OF SERVICE DEPENDS ONHOW YOU TREAT YOUR WIRE ROPES.ReGUlaR laYHERE ARE SOME EXCEPTIONSLang lay is recommended for many excavat<strong>in</strong>g, construction,and m<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g applications, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g dragl<strong>in</strong>es,hoist l<strong>in</strong>es, dredgel<strong>in</strong>es and other similar l<strong>in</strong>es.

YOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTbasic lift eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>geffect of anGlesVarious sl<strong>in</strong>g manufacturers refer <strong>in</strong> theirspecification tables to leg angles of <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>dur<strong>in</strong>g lifts – s<strong>in</strong>ce these angles have a directrelationship to lift<strong>in</strong>g capability of asl<strong>in</strong>g. Regardless of how the sl<strong>in</strong>g anglemay be stated, or the method used to computestress <strong>in</strong> a sl<strong>in</strong>g leg, the sl<strong>in</strong>g is thesame. Capacity does not change – butstresses on sl<strong>in</strong>g legs change with rigg<strong>in</strong>gangles.Much misunderstand<strong>in</strong>g results becausethe carry<strong>in</strong>g capacity of a sl<strong>in</strong>g leg is reducedby the rigg<strong>in</strong>g angle. What happensis that the operator is lift<strong>in</strong>g the loadstraight up (vertical) while the legs arepull<strong>in</strong>g at an angle, thereby caus<strong>in</strong>g a disadvantage.For quick figur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the shop, a 60-degreeleg angle causes a loss <strong>in</strong> lift<strong>in</strong>g capacityof 15%... a 45-degree angle reduces capacityby 30%... and a 30-degree angle,50%. This rule of thumb is not 100% accurate,but is easy to remember and slightlyon the safe side.It is always good practice, with<strong>in</strong> limits, tokeep the sl<strong>in</strong>g leg angle as large as possible.The length and width of the load sl<strong>in</strong>glength, and available headroom are determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>gfactors <strong>in</strong> this sl<strong>in</strong>g angle.It is neither economical nor good practice toexceed a 45-degree sl<strong>in</strong>g leg angle.Angles less than 45 degrees not only buildup tension <strong>in</strong> the sl<strong>in</strong>g legs out of all proportionto the weight of the load, they also createa much greater "<strong>in</strong>-pull" on the ends ofthe load. This produces eccentrically loadedcolumn effect, as an eng<strong>in</strong>eer would describeit – mean<strong>in</strong>g simply that long, slenderobjects have a tendency to buckle. Anglesless than 45 degrees <strong>in</strong>dicate some thoughtshould be given to the use of a lift<strong>in</strong>g beamor other device <strong>in</strong> connection with the lift.Study<strong>in</strong>g typical sl<strong>in</strong>g charts readily revealsthat lift<strong>in</strong>g capacities on <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> are mislead<strong>in</strong>gunless the sl<strong>in</strong>g angle is stated. Thesame sl<strong>in</strong>g that will handle 10 tons at an 85-degree leg angle will only handle 5 tons ifthis angle is decreased to 30 degrees.GooD slInG PRactIceRegardless of what type of sl<strong>in</strong>g may be employed,there are accepted good work<strong>in</strong>grules which will help <strong>in</strong>crease useful sl<strong>in</strong>g life– as well as improve safety. These <strong>in</strong>clude:1. Use the proper sl<strong>in</strong>g for the lift. WhetherTw<strong>in</strong>-Path, Web, Cha<strong>in</strong>, or Wire Rope, theproper sl<strong>in</strong>g is the one with the best comb<strong>in</strong>ationof work and handl<strong>in</strong>g feature – ofthe proper length and rated capacity forthe situation.2. Start and stop slowly. Crane hooksshould be raised slowly until the sl<strong>in</strong>g becomestaut and the load is suspended.Lift<strong>in</strong>g or lower<strong>in</strong>g speed should be <strong>in</strong>creasedor decreased gradually. Suddenstarts or stops place heavier loads on asl<strong>in</strong>g – comparable to jamm<strong>in</strong>g thebrakes on a speed<strong>in</strong>g automobile. A ruleof thumb: Shock loads can double thestress on a sl<strong>in</strong>g.3. If possible, set the load on blocks.Pull<strong>in</strong>g a sl<strong>in</strong>g from under a load causesabrasion and "curl<strong>in</strong>g" – mak<strong>in</strong>g the sl<strong>in</strong>gharder to handle on the next lift, while reduc<strong>in</strong>gstrength through loss of metal.4. Sharp corners cut <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>. Use protectorarcs, Cornermax and Synthetic ArmorWear Pads between sharp corners andthe sl<strong>in</strong>g body.5. Store <strong>in</strong> a dry room. Moisture is a naturalenemy of wire rope – as are acidfumes and other caustic gases.6. Avoid handl<strong>in</strong>g hot material or objects <strong>in</strong>direct contact with the sl<strong>in</strong>g. Strengthgoes down as temperature goes up!7. Dropp<strong>in</strong>g cast<strong>in</strong>g, tools or heavy objectson <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>, or runn<strong>in</strong>g over them withtrucks, can cause damage. Always hang<strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> when not <strong>in</strong> use.8. Use hooks properly. "Po<strong>in</strong>t load<strong>in</strong>g" reduceshook capacity. Pull should bestraight <strong>in</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>e of lift.selectInG a slInGThe follow<strong>in</strong>g is presented as a guide onlyto help <strong>in</strong> selection of a sl<strong>in</strong>g for a lift.1. Determ<strong>in</strong>e the Load: The weight of theload must be known. This is always thestart<strong>in</strong>g po<strong>in</strong>t.2. Decide the Hitch: Shape and bulk of theload must be accommodated as well asweight. Determ<strong>in</strong>e whether a straight attachmentat some po<strong>in</strong>t on the load, achoker around the load, or some form ofbasket hitch will best control the loaddur<strong>in</strong>g the lift.3. Adequacy of Lift<strong>in</strong>g Device: The lift<strong>in</strong>gdevice must have adequate capacity formak<strong>in</strong>g the lift, and provide any maneuverabilityrequired once the load ishoisted.4. Room to Lift: Make certa<strong>in</strong> the lift<strong>in</strong>g devicehas sufficient headroom to raise theload to the height required. Headroomwill affect the length of sl<strong>in</strong>g.5. Length of Sl<strong>in</strong>g: By apply<strong>in</strong>g your decisionon the type of hitch to knowledge ofthe headroom offered by the lift<strong>in</strong>g device,the length of sl<strong>in</strong>g can be calculated.6. Use Rated Capacity Chart: Always double-checkthat the sl<strong>in</strong>g type and capacityyou choose, when rigged at the angle determ<strong>in</strong>edby the length of the sl<strong>in</strong>g, or thespecific type of hitch, will handle the load.Attach<strong>in</strong>g the sl<strong>in</strong>g and complet<strong>in</strong>g the liftshould be an orderly procedure without "surprises"when these steps have been followed.Two further precautions should benoted, however.First, plan to protect both load and sl<strong>in</strong>g fromdamage at sharp corners, etc. Cornermaxand Synthetic Armor Wear Pads should beprovided at the lift site. A protective padshould be used anytime a sl<strong>in</strong>g passesaround a sharp corner.Last – by no means unimportant by be<strong>in</strong>glast – every sl<strong>in</strong>g should be visually exam<strong>in</strong>edfrom end to end BEFORE EVERY LIFT.It must always be kept <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d that the manufacturer'sRated Capacity applies only to anew sl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> "unused" condition. A <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong>hould be carefully exam<strong>in</strong>ed to determ<strong>in</strong>ethat it is <strong>in</strong> as nearly new condition as practicablebefore each lift.There are specific standards on the use andcare of <strong>sl<strong>in</strong>gs</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustries such as shipp<strong>in</strong>gand construction, and these provide someguidance for sl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>spectors. Consensusstandards published as ANSI B30.9 are particularlyhelpful.ANSI Standard B30.9 specifies that a wirerope sl<strong>in</strong>g should be removed form serviceany time any of the follow<strong>in</strong>g conditions aredetected:1. Ten randomly distributed broken wires <strong>in</strong>one rope lay, or five broken wires <strong>in</strong> onestrand <strong>in</strong> one rope lay.2. K<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g, crush<strong>in</strong>g, bird cag<strong>in</strong>g or anyother damage result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> distortion ofthe wire rope structure.3.

Corrosion of the rope or end attachments.It is apparent from the forego<strong>in</strong>g that <strong>in</strong>spectionof a wire rope sl<strong>in</strong>g to meet theseremoval criteria requires more than a casualunderstand<strong>in</strong>g of wire rope design andmanufacture, and the responsibility fordaily <strong>in</strong>spections must be <strong>in</strong> the hands oftra<strong>in</strong>ed personnel.Most of the forego<strong>in</strong>g applies equally to anytype of sl<strong>in</strong>g and careful <strong>in</strong>spection by atra<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong>spector is necessary for safe sl<strong>in</strong>guse.

Wire RopesYOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTblock tWIstInGBlock twist<strong>in</strong>g or "cabl<strong>in</strong>g" is one of themost frequently encountered wire ropeproblems <strong>in</strong> the construction field. Whenthis problem occurs, the wire rope is mostoften blamed, and other equally importantfactors <strong>in</strong> the operation are overlooked.Personnel experienced with handl<strong>in</strong>g ofwire rope know that conventional wireropes will twist or unlay slightly, when aload is applied. In a reeved hoist<strong>in</strong>g system,subjected to load<strong>in</strong>g and unload<strong>in</strong>gsuch as a load hoist<strong>in</strong>g l<strong>in</strong>e, this results <strong>in</strong>block twist<strong>in</strong>g and possibly distortion of thewire rope. Cabl<strong>in</strong>g of the block most frequentlyoccurs as the load <strong>in</strong> the wire ropeis released, and the "falls" are <strong>in</strong> a loweredposition. Cabl<strong>in</strong>g may be considered as thetwist<strong>in</strong>g of the block beyond one-half of arevolution (180° twist<strong>in</strong>g) of the travel<strong>in</strong>gblock. When this condition occurs, the operatorshows good judgment <strong>in</strong> not mak<strong>in</strong>gadditional lifts, until the conditions caus<strong>in</strong>gthe problem are corrected.The follow<strong>in</strong>g mach<strong>in</strong>e and site conditionsshould be <strong>in</strong>vestigated for possible improvement<strong>in</strong> block twist<strong>in</strong>g.1. Reduced wire rope length. Longer ropelengths cause more twist<strong>in</strong>g than shortrope lengths. This applies particularly tothe amount of wire rope <strong>in</strong> the "falls."2. Reduce the amount of load lifted. Heavilyloaded ropes have more torque andtwist than lightly loaded ropes. This conditionwould also apply to the speed ofload<strong>in</strong>g or "shock" load<strong>in</strong>g, s<strong>in</strong>ce this conditionalso causes higher wire rope load<strong>in</strong>g.3. Elim<strong>in</strong>ate "odd-part" reev<strong>in</strong>g, where thewire rope "dead-end" is on the travel<strong>in</strong>gblock. Wire rope torque, from the applicationof load, is greatest at the rope deadend.4. Relocate the rope dead-end at the boom,<strong>in</strong> order to <strong>in</strong>crease the separation betweenthe dead-end and the other ropeparts. This applies a stabiliz<strong>in</strong>g load directlyto the travel<strong>in</strong>g block. The orig<strong>in</strong>alequipment manufacturer should be consultedbefore mak<strong>in</strong>g this modification.5. <strong>Inc</strong>rease sheave size. This <strong>in</strong>creases theamount of separation between wire ropeparts and may improve the situation byapply<strong>in</strong>g stabiliz<strong>in</strong>g loads and reduc<strong>in</strong>gthe amount of rope torque transmitted tothe travel<strong>in</strong>g block.6. Restra<strong>in</strong> the twist<strong>in</strong>g block with a "tag"l<strong>in</strong>e. One or more of the forego<strong>in</strong>g suggestionsmay elim<strong>in</strong>ate the problem withoutresort<strong>in</strong>g to "specialized" wire ropewhich may not only be difficult to locatebut expensive as well.The use of special "rotation resistant" wireropes will not likely be required unless the<strong>in</strong>tended length of rope "falls" exceeds 100feet, or the length of the load hoist<strong>in</strong>g l<strong>in</strong>eexceeds 600 feet. In the event these latterconditions exist, the user should also anticipateus<strong>in</strong>g a comb<strong>in</strong>ation of the "rotation resistant"wire rope and the forego<strong>in</strong>g fieldsuggestions for the more severe problems.elastIc stRetcHElastic stretch results from recoverable deformation of the metal itself.

This stretchderives from two sources:1. constructional, and2. elastic.In actuality, there may be a third source ofstretch – a result of the rope rotat<strong>in</strong>g on itsown axis. Such elongation, which mayoccur either as a result of us<strong>in</strong>g a swivel,or from the effect of a free-turn<strong>in</strong>g load, isbrought about by the unlay<strong>in</strong>g of the ropestrands. Because the third source is a subjectthat is beyond the scope of this publication,discussion will be directed toconstructional and elastic stretch.constRUctIonal stRetcHWhen a load is applied to wire rope, thehelically-laid wires and strands act <strong>in</strong> aconstrict<strong>in</strong>g manner thereby compress<strong>in</strong>gthe core and br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g all the rope elements<strong>in</strong>to closer contact. The result is a slight reduction<strong>in</strong> diameter and an accompany<strong>in</strong>glengthen<strong>in</strong>g of the rope.Constructional stretch is <strong>in</strong>fluenced by thefollow<strong>in</strong>g factors:1. type of core (fiber or steel),2. rope construction (6 x 7, 6 x 25 FW,6 x 41 WS, 8 x 19 S, etc.),3. length of lay4. material.Ropes with wire strand core (WSC) or<strong>in</strong>dependent wire rope core (IWRC) haveless constructional stretch than those withfiber core (FC). The reason for this is thefact that the steel cannot compress asmuch as the fiber core.Usually, constructional stretch will cease atan early stage <strong>in</strong> the rope's life. However,some fiber core ropes, if lightly loaded (as<strong>in</strong> the case of elevator ropes), may displaya degree of constructional stretch over aconsiderable portion of their life.A def<strong>in</strong>ite value for determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g constructionalstretch cannot be assigned s<strong>in</strong>ce itis <strong>in</strong>fluenced by several factors.

YOUR SLING AND RIGGING SPECIALISTGeneral InformationDEFINITIONS OF TERMSRated load:Proof load:Proof test:Ultimate load:shock load:Design factor:The maximum recommended load that should be exerted on the item.The follow<strong>in</strong>g terms are also used for the term Rated Load: "Work<strong>in</strong>g Load,""Work<strong>in</strong>g Load Limit," and "Resultant Work<strong>in</strong>g Load." All rated load values,unless noted otherwise, are for <strong>in</strong>-l<strong>in</strong>e pull with respect to the centerl<strong>in</strong>e of theitem.The average load to which an item may be subjected before visual deformationoccurs or a load that is applied <strong>in</strong> the performance of a proof test.A term designat<strong>in</strong>g a tensile test applied to the item for the sole purpose ofdetect<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>jurious defects <strong>in</strong> the material or manufacture.The average load at which the item is be<strong>in</strong>g tested fails or no longer supportsthe load.A result<strong>in</strong>g load from the rapid change of movement, such as impact<strong>in</strong>g or jerk<strong>in</strong>g,or a static load. A Shock Load is generally significantly greater than thestatic load.An <strong>in</strong>dustry term denot<strong>in</strong>g theoretical reserve capability. Usually computeddivid<strong>in</strong>g the catalog stated ultimate load by the catalog stated work<strong>in</strong>g load limitand generally expressed as a ratio, for example: 5 to 1.CAUTIONS OR WARNINGSAll rat<strong>in</strong>gs shown <strong>in</strong> this literature are based upon the items be<strong>in</strong>g new or "<strong>in</strong> as new" condition.Catalog rat<strong>in</strong>gs are considered to be the greatest load that should be applied to the item; therefore,any shock load<strong>in</strong>g must be considered when select<strong>in</strong>g the item for use <strong>in</strong> a system.The products shown <strong>in</strong> this literature are subject to wear, misuse, overload<strong>in</strong>g, corrosion, deformation,<strong>in</strong>tentional alteration and other usage factors which may necessitate a reduction <strong>in</strong> the product'sRated Capacity or a reduction <strong>in</strong> its Design Factor. Therefore, it is recommended that allproducts be regularly <strong>in</strong>spected to determ<strong>in</strong>e their condition as a basis for decid<strong>in</strong>g if the productmay cont<strong>in</strong>ue to be used at the catalog assigned WL, a reduced WL, a reduced design factor, or removedfrom service.HEADQUARTERS: 55 James E.
