Lifting slings Webbing, round and specialist textile slings supplied across the UK
Durham Lifting supplies polyester lifting slings for general lifting, machinery handling, fabrication, construction and industrial applications. Webbing slings and round slings can be specified around the required working load limit, effective working length, load contact and operating environment.
Polyester sling ranges supplied to specification
Durham Lifting can supply standard and made-to-requirement textile lifting slings without limiting the enquiry to one manufacturer. The correct configuration is selected around the load, lifting method, dimensions and working conditions.
Webbing slings
Flat woven polyester slings provide a lightweight and flexible lifting connection with a broad load-bearing surface. Options include soft-eye, endless, simplex, duplex and multi-layer constructions.
- Soft-eye webbing slings
- Endless web slings
- Simplex and duplex options
- Protective sleeves available
Round slings
Polyester round slings use load-bearing yarn within a protective sleeve, providing a soft, flexible and easy-to-handle lifting option for machinery, fabricated loads and general rigging.
- Endless round slings
- Standard and bespoke lengths
- Higher-capacity options
- Protective coverings available
Choose the sling around the lift
The sling type, length and construction should suit the load and the way it will be connected. Durham Lifting can help establish the appropriate arrangement from the information available.
Soft-eye webbing slings
Flexible flat slings with reinforced eyes for common hook, shackle and lifting-point connections.
Endless web slings
Continuous webbing constructions that can be rotated to spread wear across the sling body.
Polyester round slings
Soft endless slings suited to applications where flexibility and lower equipment weight are valuable.
Sleeves and edge protection
Additional protection for identified contact areas, abrasion risks and suitable load edges.
Bespoke lengths and configurations
Slings produced around the required effective working length, capacity and connection arrangement.
Higher-capacity textile slings
Specialist textile sling options for heavier loads where handling weight and load contact remain important.
The sling must suit the load, connection and environment
Working load limit alone does not define the correct sling. The lifting method, effective working length, hitch arrangement, load shape, edge condition and operating environment all influence selection.
What should you send us?
A product code is not essential. Send the lifting requirement and any dimensions available, then the sales team can identify suitable webbing or round sling options.
Lifting slings supplied with the wider rigging arrangement
Polyester slings can be supplied alongside shackles, lifting points, chain slings, wire-rope slings and engineered lifting equipment. Tell us the complete requirement so compatible equipment and documentation can be considered together.
What is the difference between a webbing sling and a round sling?
A webbing sling has a flat woven body and may use reinforced eyes or an endless construction. A round sling contains load-bearing yarn inside a protective endless sleeve.
Can polyester slings be supplied in bespoke lengths?
Standard and made-to-requirement lengths can be considered. State the required WLL, effective working length, configuration and quantity when requesting a quotation.
Can protective sleeves be supplied?
Protective sleeves and coverings are available for suitable applications. The load surface and identified contact areas should be described at enquiry stage.
What information is needed for a sling quotation?
Provide the required WLL, working length, sling type, hitch method, load shape, environment, quantity and certification requirements where known.
