About the 8 Tonne Round Sling 

Designed to make handling delicate loads less of a hassle, our lifting sling range includes this 8 tonne capacity round sling example which is even more convenient to put into use thanks to its colour coded design and customisable dimensions. 

Standardised features of the 8000kg round sling

The 8 tonnes round sling is blue for easier classification, this is in accordance with the lifting industry standard colour coding scheme. 

These durable round slings are gentler on the load thanks to the soft filling inside the outer tube, this has no seams to rub or split. 

Safe slinging practices should always be observed as should the load tables for ascertaining the correct safe working load for the hitch type you will be using. 

As with our other round sling products, this 8 tonne capacity unit can be configured in several different lifting hitches, each of which will have a different WLL to take into account. You can also combine more than one of these slings to increase the capacity, but whatever your needs it is important to consider safety regulations to avoid accidents. 

Should you realise that the 8 tonne vertical lift capacity of this round sling is not enough to meet your requirements, Lifting Gear Direct can also supply sturdier slings with WLLs of anywhere up to 12 tonnes.
