ADVANCED SERIES

Suitable for loads with a maximum weight of 64.9 t
(depending on lifting method and sling type)

>>See Working Load Limit Table

The Advanced Series is available in 9 sizes (6 mm - 32 mm) and offers a wide range of sling components. The chain we assemble has an increased working load limit - 20% higher WLL compared to a Standard Series chain sling in the same size.

Another advantage is that you can combine components directly with the chain, no coupling link is needed.

Advanced sling sets can be equipped with special master links (MG or MGD) with an in-built shortening pocket. This convenient pocket allows chain length adjustment without any extra tool and without working load limit reduction. Therefore you can minimize the number of components and the weight of the sling. You can also choose couplings with this unique shortening function (CG or CGD).

Easy chain length adjustment
