1. Determine the weight and center of gravity of the load. For special lifts consult
manufacturer for additional support and/or suggested products.
2. Check the sling tag to confirm that the sling is rated adequately for the load in the
manner or hitches that it will be used. Refer to load angle, choke angle and other relevant
charts.

LOAD ANGLE CHART
Angle factor must be applied to calculate the reduced sling
capacity
when lifting force is not at 90˚ to the plane of the load!
Multiply angle factor x sling’s vertical rated load to
calculate the reduced capacity at the angle.

PERCENTAGE OF SLING RATED
CAPACITY IN A CHOKER HITCH
Use caution with lifts at angles less than 45˚ and do not make lifts with slings at less than 30˚. When
possible, use longer slings to minimize angular tension by increasing the angle. Severe angles can
greatly reduce sling strength.

3. Check chemical resistance. Twin-Path® slings are generally resistant to common chemicals.
Resistances in this chart are based on common concentrations at room temperature. Elevated
concentrations and temperatures may affect chemical resistance. Contact Slingmax for more
information when using in environments with elevated concentrations of chemicals and/or
temperatures.
