chain sling that was selected meets the specific job requirements it’s being used for.

However, users can’t rely on a once-a-day inspection if the sling is used multiple times throughout the day.
Shock loads, severe angles, edges, and excessive heat can quickly cause damage to the material, so best
practice is to perform a visual inspection prior to each use.

What is Required on a Chain Sling Identification Tag?

When using a chain for overhead lifting, the user must make sure that the chain is composed of alloy steel
as opposed to carbon steel, and that the sling has an identification tag. If the chain sling doesn’t meet these (https://resources.mazzellacompanies.com/cs/c/?
requirements, the user must not use it for overhead lifting. Size for size, alloy chain has greater strength cta_guid=267ef7b1-90ca-4f09-8864-

Often times, sling abuse is inherent with a given application. However, by knowing what types of
applications cause premature chain wear and even sling failure, the rigger can be in a better position to
know what to look for when inspecting slings.

With regard to inspection criteria, chain damage typically falls into one of five categories and critical
damage will be obvious to a properly trained inspector. These categories include:

(/Portals/0/EasyGalleryImages/1/66/sling-

angles.jpg)
Make sure you understand the rated capacity for your chain sling
at 30°, 45°, and 60° angles—and also how those angles factor
into multi-leg chain slings.

Severe angles can also result in a sling being overloaded. Alloy chain sling charts have rated capacities at
30°, 45°, and 60° angles. The typical angle is 60°. Normally two, three, and four leg chains have three
ratings for a specified number of pounds at 60°. The sling identification tag also states the rated capacity for
the specified sling angle. Be aware that sling angles greatly affect the tension on each leg of the sling. The
farther apart the legs of the sling are spread, the more tension there is on the sling legs.

https://www.mazzellacompanies.com/Resources/Blog/alloy-chain-sling-inspection-chain-sling-use 5/9
1/28/2020 Best Practices for Alloy Chain Sling Inspection and Chain Sling Use

A good rule of thumb is to measure the distance between the hook-up points, and have the sling
legs measure at least that long. For example, if the distance between the hook-up points measures 10
feet, then the sling legs should be at least 10 feet long. This practice ensures that the two leg lengths and
the distance between the hook-up points form an equilateral triangle resulting in the sling angles being 60°.

If the application dictates sling angles less than 60°, then the user needs to choose the correct size sling to
allow for the more severe angle. In any case, never use a sling at angles less than 30°. This concept for
sling angles and leg lengths applies to all sling types—not just chain slings.

(/Portals/0/EasyGalleryImages/1/66/heat-

chart.JPG)
If you're lifting in a high heat environment, make sure you consult
with your chain manufacturer. They can provide you with a similar
chart that shows capacity reductions for high heat temperature
ranges.

In applications involving high heat, the user must pay attention to the amount of direct heat that the chain
sees. Often, direct heat results in the chain turning a blueish color. The user should consult the chain
manufacturer’s capacity reduction charts relating to heat. In addition, be aware of any damage caused by
weld splatter or molten metal being splashed on the slings.

In applications that involve lifting loads with rough or sharp edges, wear pads should be used on
unprotected corners—otherwise the chain is susceptible to nicks, gouges, and crushed or bent links.

Wrapping it up

(/Portals/0/EasyGalleryImages/1/66/ronnie-chain-

sling-inspection.jpg)

In conclusion, be sure to designate a qualified inspector to perform sling inspections on a routine basis.
Also, provide training to your sling users so that they may learn or refresh their knowledge on sling usage
and inspection (https://www.mazzellacompanies.com/Products-Services/Slings-Assemblies/Chain-Sling-
Guidelines).

Follow these best practices for sling use and inspection:

Do know the weight of the load

Do determine the type of hitch
Do choose the correct size and style sling
Do use the longest sling possible and practical

https://www.mazzellacompanies.com/Resources/Blog/alloy-chain-sling-inspection-chain-sling-use 6/9
1/28/2020 Best Practices for Alloy Chain Sling Inspection and Chain Sling Use

Do stand clear of the load

Do lift evenly and smoothly
Do visually examine slings each time before use
Do discard or red tag worn and damaged slings
Do store properly
Do use pads around sharp corners to prevent sling damage
Do have slings repaired or modified only at a qualified sling service center
