What makes Wear Sleeves Necessary?
The usefulness of wear sleeves
is outlined fairly effectively in the name of the product itself; it is
intended to withstand wear and tear, rather than allowing it to take
its toll on the material that makes up the lifting sling beneath. This
type of product makes particular sense for use with flat web slings.
While the polyester of the sling itself is very strong, it is not
completely incapable of being worn down over time. Abrasions which build
up as it rubs over different surfaces can make early replacement a
necessity. With a wear sleeve to take the brunt of the punishment, the
sling will be in good condition for as long as possible. This also has
benefits in terms of lifting safety; a topic that every business should consider carefully. What are the Different Options for Protective sling sleeves?
Wear
sleeves themselves are available in different materials and in
different configurations. Heavy or light duty webbing will be produced
using a similar material to the sling beneath, providing a level of
resistance and durability that is relative to its thickness and
composition. Sewn webbing is literally stitched around the sling, so it
can cope with endless slings, including round slings. Can you add Wear Sleeves to Slings?
This
is a popular option, since it saves you the trouble of installing the
wear sleeve yourself. Our ability to customise our lifting slings is one
of the things that sets us apart from the competition. You can come up
