What is a synthetic roundsling?

It is an endless synthetic sling made from a continuous loop of polyester yarn covered by a double wall tubular jacket. The roundsling body can also be compared to sling webbing with the tubular jacket face yarns woven without binder yarns; this allows the core yarns to move independently within the jacket.

Made from bulked nylon fibers, the double wall Tufhide jacket offers better abrasion resistance for our larger capacity Tuflex (EN360 and larger). In addition, Tufhide reduces the heat buildup that can damage other high capacity roundslings when used in a choker hitch.

• Promotes Safety
• Light weight reduces fatigue and strain on riggers
• Synthetic materials won’t cut hands
• Consistant matched lengths for better multiple sling load control
• No loss of strength from abrasion to cover
• Low stretch (about 3% at rated capacity)
• Conforms to shape of load to grip securely
• Load bearing yards protected from UV degradation
• Red striped white core yarns provided added visual warning of sling damage
• Color coding provides positive sling capacity infor-mation
• Double wall cover for greater sling life
• Soft cover won’t scratch load surface
• Seamless – no sewn edges to rupture prematurely
• Light weight and pliable for easy rigging and storage
• Independent core yarns choke tightly, but release easily after use
