Features
Soft, supple, and light in weight, easy to handle.
Internationally identifiable colour code, SWL shown on slings and also shown by the way of woven stripes i.e. each black stripe for each ton.
Being endless, wears evenly as there is no single point use.
Ideally suited for lifting smooth, polished or coated objects.
Conforms to B. S. 6668 Part 2 and Indian standards.
Zebra Round Slings are light weight compared to the working load ratio and being Polyester
do not rust or corrode as in metal slings.
These slings have no danger of hand injury to workman caused by cut wires and does
not spark, hence can be used explosive environment.
The elongation factor on load is only 3%, hence it absorbs the load while lifting.
Zebra Round Slings flattens and adjust to contours of the load point thus forming a firm grip.

Advantages over Steel Rope or Chain
Zebra polyester Slings are considered lighter than a metal product of comparable lifting performance
and as a consequences are both safer and easier to handle. The main safety and handling advantage
of the Zebra Slings are listed below:
Because of the suppleness of polyester, the Zebra Sling accommodates irregularities of the load,
twisted wire rope may grip in the wrong place creating imbalance
Absorbs shocks
No corrosion - wire ropes can rust unseen from inside
Easier to inspect - if it looks all right, it is alright
Less weight means easier, quicker working, less risk of back injuries
Less weight also means cheaper transport - only 20% of the steel chain for example
Less risk of damage to sensitive or painted surfaces.
Safe in hazardous or explosive environments as there is no risk of sparking
