A Tuflex® roundsling is an endless synthetic sling made from a skein of polyester yarn covered by a double-wall tubular jacket. The roundsling body can be compared to sling webbing with the tubular jacket face yarns woven without binder yarns. This allows the core yarns to move independently within the jacket.
Roundsling construction protects all load carrying core yarns from abrasion with an independent, woven jacket. Replacement is not necessary until the red or white core yarns can be seen through holes in the jacket. When core yarns are visible, the sling must be removed from service. Tuflex roundslings provide double-wall protection for extended sling life.
All Lift-All slings meet or exceed OSHA and ASME B30.9 standards and regulations.
