What Is a 2-Leg Wire Rope Bridle Sling?
A 2-leg wire rope bridle sling consists of two lengths of high-strength wire rope connected to a master link at the top, with eye sling hooks at the bottom ends, each equipped with safety latches. These assemblies are ideal for lifting loads with two lifting points, providing improved load distribution and balance.

Key Components Explained
Wire Rope Legs
Made from galvanized or bright steel wire strands, the rope legs are twisted into a durable, flexible lifting solution. The diameter and length can be customized to suit different load weights and lift heights.
Master Link
The central ring at the top of the sling attaches to the crane hook or lifting device. It’s engineered to handle the combined load of both legs.
Eye Sling Hooks with Safety Latches
These are forged alloy hooks that connect directly to the load. The eye design ensures secure rope termination, and the spring-loaded safety latch prevents unintentional disengagement during the lift.

Benefits of Eye Sling Hooks with Safety Latches
Added Security
The safety latch prevents accidental release of the load, especially during tilted or angled lifts.
Quick Attachment
The wide throat opening of the hook allows for easy attachment to load points like lugs, lifting eyes, or shackles.
Load Retention
Once the load is secured inside the hook, the latch ensures it stays put—even in cases of sudden movements or tension changes.
Durable and Heat-Treated
Sling hooks are manufactured from quenched and tempered alloy steel, offering exceptional toughness, wear resistance, and longevity.
Advantages of 2-Leg Wire Rope Bridle Slings
- Stability: Two legs allow balanced lifting, minimizing tilt and swing.
- Strength: Capable of lifting several tons depending on rope size and sling angle.
- Flexibility: Wire rope’s flexibility makes it ideal for lifting uneven or oddly-shaped loads.
- Ease of Use: Fast attachment via hooks, making it perfect for dynamic lifting operations.
- Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized options withstand harsh weather and marine environments—ideal for Saudi Arabia’s climate.
Understanding Working Load Limits (WLL)
The WLL depends on several factors, including:
- Rope diameter
- Sling angle
- Material grade of hooks and wire
- Configuration (vertical, choker, basket)
Sling Angle Impact Table
Sling Angle | Effective WLL |
---|---|
90° (vertical) | 100% |
60° | ~86% |
45° | ~71% |
30° | ~50% |
Important: Always refer to manufacturer-provided load charts before using any lifting sling.
Safety Best Practices
Inspect Before Each Use
- Check for frayed wires, kinks, broken strands.
- Ensure eye sling hooks are free of cracks, wear, or deformation.
- Test the latch mechanism for smooth operation.
Never Overload
Stick to the rated Working Load Limit (WLL) at the correct sling angle. Never exceed capacity.
Maintain Proper Sling Angles
Avoid sling angles below 30° as they drastically increase tension and risk.
Store Properly
When not in use, store wire rope slings in a dry, covered space to prevent corrosion and mechanical damage.
Use Qualified Personnel
Only trained riggers should operate wire rope sling assemblies for lifting operations.
