Which protective sleeves to choose for textile slings?

Textile slings, both belt and hose, are an indispensable tool for lifting loads. However, in order for them to serve as long as possible and retain their properties, it is necessary to protect them properly. A key component of sling protection is protective sleeves, which increase the safety of operations and extend the life of the sling. What options are available and which sleeves to choose? Let's check!

PVC protective sleeves

For protecting slings with non-cutting loads, reinforced PVC protective sleeves work well. Their features include:

• Resistance to aging and abrasion,

• Operating temperature from -10°C to 60°C,

• Performance standard in accordance with ISO 8029 and ISO 7751.

With PVC and a ribbed structure, these sleeves are durable yet easy to install.

Polyester Sleeves

Osłony wykonane z poliestru są doskonałym wyborem dla zawiesi pasowych i wężowych. Ich cechy to:

• Resistant to abrasion and chemicals,

• Can be adjusted in length to fit the user's needs,

• Option with sewn-in Velcro for quick installation.

Double polyester webbing stitched together or open guarantees durability even under heavy use. The polyester material is resistant to most acids, but contact with strong alkalis should be avoided.

Extreema® protection 

If you work with sharp-edged loads or those that require special protection, it's worth considering Extreema® products made of 100% Dyneema® or Cordura® blend fibers. The main advantages of this solution are:

• High resistance to cuts, tears and abrasion,

• Flexibility to fit the shape of the load,

• Easy installation through the use of Velcro.

Extreema® protectors are available in a variety of designs, allowing you to tailor the protection to your specific industrial requirements. These products are lightweight yet extremely durable, making them an ideal choice for repetitive loading operations.

Why invest in sling protection?
