Nylon Web Slings 5.3 - ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS 5.3.1 Slings should be stored in a cool, dry and dark place, and should not be exposed to sunlight, to prevent mechanical or chemical damage when not in use. 5.3.2 Chemically active environments can affect the strength of synthetic web slings in varying degrees ranging from none to total degradation. The sling manufacturer should be consulted before slings are used in chemically active environments. a. ACIDS 1. Nylon is subject to degradation in acids, ranging from none to total degradation. 2. Polyester is resistant to many acids, but is subject to degradation, ranging from none to moderate in some acids. 3. Each application shall be evaluated, taking into consideration the following: i Type of Acid ii Exposure to conditions iii Concentration iv Temperature b. ALKALIS 1. Polyester is subject to degradation in alkalis, ranging from none to total degradation. 2. Nylon is resistant to many alkalis, but is subject to degradation ranging from none to moderate in some alkalis. 3. Each application shall be evaluated, taking into consideration the following: i Type of Alkali ii. Exposure to conditions iii Concentration iv Temperature 5.3.3 Nylon and polyester slings shall not be used at temperatures in excess of 180°F (85°C), however, they may be used in temperatures as low as -40°F (-40°C). 5.3.4 Slings incorporating aluminum fittings shall not be used where fumes, vapors, sprays, mists or liquids of alkalis and/or acids are present. 5.3.5 Environments in which synthetic webbing slings are continuously exposed to ultra-violet light can affect the strength of synthetic webbing slings in varying degrees ranging from slight to total degradation. a. Factors which affect the degree of strength loss are: 1. Length of time of continuous exposure 2. Sling construction and design 3. Other environmental factors such as weather conditions and geographic location. b. Suggested procedures to minimize the effects of ultra-violet light 1. Store slings in a cool, dry and dark place when not being used for prolonged periods of time 2. Inspect slings weekly or more often depending on frequency of sling use c. Visual indications of ultra-violet degradation are: 1. Bleaching out of sling color 2. Increased stiffness of sling material 3. Surface abrasion in areas not normally in contact with the load. d. Proof-Testing – Slings used in environments where they are subject to continuous exposure to ultra-violet light should be proof-tested to two times rated capacity annually, or more frequently depending on severity of exposure.

FREQUENT INSPECTION – This inspection should be made by the person handling the sling each time the sling is used. c. PERIODIC INSPECTION – This inspection shall be conducted by designated personnel. Frequency of inspection should be based on: 1. Frequency of sling use 2. Severity of service conditions 3. Experience gained on the service life of slings used in similar applications 4. Periodic inspections should be conducted at least monthly 5.5 - POSSIBLE DEFECTS 5.5.1 A sling shall be removed from service if any defects such as the following are visible: a. Acid or alkali burns b. Melting, charring, or weld spatter of any part of the sling c. Holes, tears, cuts, snags or embedded particles d. Broken or worn stitching in load bearing splices e. Excessive abrasive wear f. Knots in any part of the sling g. Distortion and excessive pitting or corrosion or broken fittings h. Other apparent defects which cause doubt as to the strength of the sling i. If sling rated capacity or sling material identification is missing or not readable 5.6 - INSPECTION RECORDS 5.6.1 Written inspection records, utilizing the identification for each sling as established by the user, should be kept on file for all slings. These records should show a description of the new sling and its condition on each subsequent inspection. 5.7 - REPAIR OF WEB SLINGS 5.7.1 Slings shall be repaired only by a sling manufacturer. When repaired by other than the original manufacturer, the sling shall be permanently marked to identify the repair agent. 5.7.2 All repaired slings shall be proof-tested to two (2) times its newly assigned rated capacity, berfore being put back into service. Certification of proof-test should be provided. 5.7.3 Temporary repairs of either webbing, fittings, or stitching shall not be permitted.
