LIFTING METHODS & CAPACITY
Duplex Sling Lifting Methods & Rated Capacity
A duplex sling’s working load limit depends on the lifting method and arrangement. Follow the rated data and instructions supplied for your specific sling.
01
Straight / Vertical Lift
Connects the load to the lifting equipment in a straight arrangement. Check the stated vertical working load limit and compatibility of the end connections.
VERTICAL LIFT
02
Choker Hitch
The sling passes around the load and through an eye or approved fitting. Use the specified choker rating and follow permitted choke-angle and contact conditions.
CHOKER HITCH
03
Basket Hitch
The sling supports the load with both ends connected to the lifting equipment. Check the rating for the actual sling angles, load balance and support arrangement.
BASKET HITCH
04
Confirm the Configuration Rating
Do not assume all lifting methods have the same capacity. Two-ply construction alone does not establish a hitch rating; use the manufacturer’s capacity chart.
RATED CAPACITY
IMPORTANT CAPACITY NOTE
Two-ply construction does not automatically mean twice the capacity. Always use the rated working load limit supplied for the finished sling and intended lifting configuration.

PROTECTION, INSPECTION & CARE
Caring for Your Duplex Lifting Sling
Correct protection, inspection and handling help maintain your duplex sling’s condition. Follow the instructions supplied with your GRIPZON product.
01
Protect Load-Contact Areas
Assess rough surfaces and sharp edges before lifting. Anti-abrasive sleeves can help reduce rubbing, but must not be assumed to provide cut protection.
02
Inspect Before Every Use
Check accessible webbing surfaces, edges, eyes, stitching and fittings for damage. Confirm that the identification label remains readable.
03
Handle the Sling Correctly
Avoid knots, twisting, dragging or trapping the sling beneath a load. Use compatible connections and remain within the rated limits.
04
Store & Maintain Carefully
Follow the manufacturer’s cleaning and storage instructions. Protect the sling from damaging heat, chemicals and prolonged sunlight.
REMOVE FROM SERVICE
Suspected damage should never be ignored.
If damage is identified or the sling’s condition cannot be confidently assessed, remove it from service and have it evaluated in accordance with the applicable inspection procedure.

Working Around Abrasive or Rough Surfaces?
