What Is a 3-Leg Wire Sling with Master Link & Thimble Hard Eyes?
A 3-leg wire rope sling is a lifting sling that comprises:
A master link assembly at the top (to connect to the lifting hook or crane)
Three wire rope legs (equal length or customized to application)
Thimble hard eyes at each end (protecting the wire eye termination from wear and tear)
Thimble Hard Eyes:
These are steel reinforcements inserted into the looped ends of the wire rope to preserve the shape of the eye and prevent abrasion or crushing from hardware like shackles or hooks.
Overall Length should be measured without Top Master Link Assembly Ring.
Swaging / Crimping of Sleeves with Carbon Steel Ferrule / Aluminium Ferrule
End Fittings: Shackles, Hooks, Clamps, Thimble Eyes, Flemish Soft Eyes etc.
Key Benefits of Using a 3-Leg Wire Sling with Thimble Eyes
1. Precision Lifting Across Uneven Load Points
The three-leg configuration distributes the load more evenly and is ideal for odd-shaped or unbalanced objects such as large tanks, pumps, or fabricated modules.
2. Reduced Wire Rope Damage
Thimble hard eyes prevent pinching, kinking, and crushing at the loop—extending the lifespan of the sling and increasing operational safety.
3. High Load Capacity with Angular Lifting
Unlike single or 2-leg slings, a 3-leg setup accommodates higher angular forces and improves the stability of the lifted load.
4. Customizable to Fit Your Lifting Needs
At SSTC, we build slings with specific leg lengths, load ratings, and eye dimensions to match your machinery, shackles, or crane setup.
5. Long-Lasting, Galvanized Protection
Our galvanized wire ropes resist corrosion, making them perfect for coastal, desert, or chemical plant environments common in Saudi Arabia.

Compliance status
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience,
regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level.
These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible
to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific
disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML,
adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Screen-reader and keyboard navigation
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with
screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive
a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements,
alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website.
In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels;
descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups),
and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag
for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology.
To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on
as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
