Slingmax Rigging SolutionsSlingmax Gator-Flex Wire Rope Slings

US Patent #5,561,973

This wire rope sling has a nine-part body style with wires in the eyes that are crossed or interwoven so no wrapping is necessary. The Slingmax Gator-Flex Wire Rope Sling was developed in conjunction with offshore oil company riggers who preferred a sling for heavy lifts that could be visually inspected and have the highest flexibility possible in a multi-part wire rope sling. The eyes are terminated in a hand-tuck-type of construction.
