Cable-Laid Slings<br />
These smooth and very flexible slings are made from cut<br />
lengths of cable-laid fabric that <strong>is</strong> machine formed by<br />
laying six wire ropes in a helical pattern around a core<br />
rope. Flem<strong>is</strong>h eye mechanical splices, secured by pressed<br />
metal sleeves, provide centerline pull at the eyes. More<br />
flexible than same capacity single-part slings.<br />
Flem<strong>is</strong>h Eye Splice<br />
In the standard flem<strong>is</strong>h eye<br />
mechanical splice, rope <strong>is</strong><br />
separated in<strong>to</strong> two parts – 3<br />
adjacent strands, and 3<br />
adjacent strands and core.<br />
These two parts are then relaid<br />
back in opposite<br />
directions <strong>to</strong> form an eye, and<br />
ends are secured with a<br />
pressed metal sleeve.<br />
Swaging Provides<br />
Positive Grip<br />
<strong>Th<strong>is</strong></strong> cutaway of a metal<br />
sleeve swaged on<strong>to</strong> a<br />
splice shows how metal<br />
"flows" in<strong>to</strong> valleys<br />
between strands <strong>to</strong><br />
positively prevent ends<br />
from unlaying when<br />
sling <strong>is</strong> used within its<br />
rated capacity.<br />
Ideal for use as basket or choker hitches, where flexibility and ease of<br />
handling are essential and cutting or abrasion <strong>is</strong> not a critical fac<strong>to</strong>r.<br />
