CWR Hawaii offers chain slings in a wide variety of types and diameters. See general information on chain slings rating capacity in terms of tons of 2,000 pounds based upon new, unused chain.
If your specific chain slings needs or requirements are not shown, please consult CWR Hawaii sales or technical department for information and recommendations.
Vertical, Choker, and Basket Chain Slings
Chain slings are a combination of chain, hooks, rings or other attachments used primarily for overhead lifting applications. Slings are generally used in conjunction with a crane or some kind of lifting device and allow riggers to create a custom configuration to lift a load depending on the needs of the application.
Chain 2-Leg Bridles
Double-leg chain slings secure to loads from two lifting points to help keep them stable while lifting. Also known as two-leg chain slings, they help control heavy or odd-shaped loads and lift loads at 30°, 45°, and 60° angles. Chain slings have strong, flexible constructions that withstand heavy loads, extreme temperatures, abrasive conditions, and chemicals. Their legs connect and branch off from a master link and lift simultaneously with the master link to distribute the load equally. Chain slings have identification tags with information regarding their rated capacities set by their manufacturer that should be carefully reviewed before use. The rated capacity of a chain sling should always exceed the weight of the load.
Chain 3-Leg Bridles
Triple-leg chain slings secure loads from three lifting points to keep them balanced and stable while moving. Also known as three-leg chain slings, they distribute weight on three sides to help control and stabilize heavy and odd-shaped loads and lift loads at 30°, 45°, and 60° angles. Chain slings have strong, flexible constructions that withstand heavy loads, extreme temperatures, abrasive conditions, and chemicals. Their legs connect and branch off from a master link and lift simultaneously with the master link to distribute the load equally. Chain slings have identification tags with information regarding their rated capacities set by their manufacturer that should be carefully reviewed before use. The rated capacity of a chain sling should always exceed the weight of the load.
Chain 4-Leg Bridles
Four-leg chain slings secure loads from four lifting points to help prevent tilting and keep the load stable and balanced. Also known as quad-leg chain slings, they distribute weight equally on four sides to maximize stability and control and are ideal for loads that are extremely heavy, bulky, or odd-shaped. Multi-leg chain slings lift loads at 30°, 45°, and 60° angles. Chain slings have strong, flexible constructions that withstand heavy loads, extreme temperatures, abrasive conditions, and chemicals. Their legs connect and branch off from a master link and lift simultaneously with the master link to distribute the load equally. Chain slings have identification tags with information regarding their rated capacities set by their manufacturer that should be carefully reviewed before use. The rated capacity of a chain sling should always exceed the weight of the load.
Different Chain Options
Chain slings can be configured in single-leg, 2-leg, 3-leg, and 4-leg designs. They can be configured for use in vertical, choker, or basket hitches and a variety of different sling hooks, lengths of chain, and master links can be used to create different sling assemblies for different applications.
