*Do not exceed rated capacities.
Rating must be reduced when slings are used at angles of less than 90 degrees from horizontal.

**The use of ANY round sling with a nylon cover and polyester load-bearing core yarn makes the detection of chemical damage to the core yarn extremely difficult. Use of such round slings in chemically active environments, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHICH INCLUDE STRONG ALKALIS, is not recommended. Alkalis can damage the polyester core yarn without damaging the nylon cover, making inspection for this type of damage almost impossible. In such chemically active environments, round slings using covers made from the same fiber as the core yarn is recommended, because the environment will damage the cover either before or at the same time as the core yarn, making inspection and detection much more reliable. If in doubt, return the round sling to Span Set for inspection and proof testing.

** Note - Previous round slings were silver in color with orange stripes woven into the sleeving Each stripe meant one US ton (2,000 lbs.) Vertical Working Load Limit.
