Introduction to Webbing Slings

Webbing slings are essential lifting accessories commonly used in various industrial applications. Manufactured using synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon, these slings are specifically designed for delicate, polished, or high-value loads.

Their soft surface texture prevents scratching or damaging sensitive materials, making them ideal for industries where material protection is critical—like aerospace, construction, and shipping.


Manufacturing Process

At SSTC, webbing slings are manufactured using heavy or light-duty materials, depending on the application. A crucial step in their production is the Surface Treatment process, which enhances:

  • Abrasion resistance
  • Moisture sealing
  • Structural durability

This treatment helps prevent grit and moisture from infiltrating the sling’s core, thereby reducing internal wear and extending service life.

To further enhance performance, slings may include:

  • Wear pads
  • Edge guards
  • Protective sleeves

These accessories are available in a wide variety of configurations to meet specific lifting requirements.

Environmental Resistance

These slings are:

  • Resistant to mildew, moisture, and rot
