Lifting Slings – Secure and Versatile Solutions from Action Handling

Discover a wide range of lifting slings at Action Handling, designed for safe, efficient, and reliable lifting operations in construction, manufacturing, logistics, and more.

What Are Lifting Slings?

Lifting slings are essential pieces of lifting equipment used to attach and secure loads to cranes, hoists, or other lifting devices. They provide a flexible, secure method for lifting, lowering, and moving heavy or awkwardly shaped items, helping to distribute weight evenly and reduce the risk of damage to both the load and the lifting machinery.

Types of Lifting Slings Available

There are several main types of lifting slings, each suited to different applications and load requirements:

  • Webbing Slings: Made from high-strength polyester or nylon, webbing slings are lightweight, flexible, and ideal for handling delicate or finished loads. Their soft exterior minimises abrasion and damage, making them a popular choice for construction and logistics.
  • Round Slings: Constructed from endless loops of synthetic fibres, round slings are highly flexible and can conform to the shape of the load. They are perfect for lifting cylindrical or irregularly shaped items and are colour-coded for easy identification of their working load limits.
  • Chain Slings: Built from high-tensile steel, chain slings are extremely durable and suitable for heavy-duty lifting in tough environments such as construction, demolition, and heavy machinery handling. They are available in single-leg or multi-leg configurations for added versatility.
  • Wire Rope Slings: Known for their strength and resistance to abrasion, wire rope slings are commonly used in industrial lifting and rigging. They are ideal for long-term use and can handle higher working loads compared to webbing or round slings.
  • Specialist Slings: Including slings for ultra-high strength and minimal weight, endless flat slings, and custom-made options for unique lifting challenges.
