Wear sleeves, corner protectors and cut-resistant edge guards for slings and tie-downs.
This is the cheapest line in the catalogue and the one that saves the most money. A webbing or rope sling has little defence against a sharp edge: a load with a square corner will cut through it on the first lift, and the sling is then scrap.
What we supply:
- Polyester wear sleeves, eye-only or full length, sewn or sliding
- Corner protectors in moulded plastic and heavy rubber for square-edged loads
- Cut-resistant sleeving for consistently sharp material such as plate and structural steel
- Magnetic corner protectors for steel loads where positioning by hand is awkward
Specify these with the sling rather than after the first one fails. On steel handling and precast work they are not an accessory, they are part of the specification.
