Mazzella Hand Taper and Concealed Wire Rope Sling, Eye-and-Eye, 6 x 37 OPEN BOX

Description

Mazzella Hand Taper and Concealed Wire Rope Sling, Eye-and-Eye, 6 x 37 Fiber Core, 18' Length, 1/2" Diameter, 8" Eyes, 4000 lbs Vertical Load Capacity
The Mazzella 6 x 37 FC (fiber core) single-leg wire rope sling has eye-and-eye endings and a hand (also called tapered) splice for lifting loads with vertical, choker, or basket configurations in industrial applications. The 6 x 37 FC construction contains six strands of wire rope with approximately 37 wires per strand wrapped around a core made of natural or synthetic fibers. This provides more flexibility than an independent wire rope core of the same diameter. The wire rope construction has more abrasion and heat resistance than a web sling. This eye-and-eye sling has an eye, or loop, on both ends, and can be used with vertical, choker, and basket lifting configurations. The eyes are secured with a hand splice, in which the sling's ends are woven back into the body of the sling to form eyes. A hand splice sling is easier to remove from beneath a load than a mechanical splice and is more flexible than a mechanical splice sling of the same diameter. This sling has a minimum D/d ratio of 15 and meets American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) specification B30.9 and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) specification 1910.184.
