TUFFY HP HIGH PERFORMANCE ROUND SLINGS

NO GIMMICKS, JUST PERFORMANCE TuffyHP round slings combine the superior flexibility of the Flexi-Grip with high performance super-aramid fibers that make up the TuffyHP to give you a lighter, stronger, less bulky, flexible lifting sling to accommodate a wide variety of difficult loads. The flexibility and compact size promote rigging speed and allow for easy storage and transportation. S U P E R I O R M AT E R I A L S P R O D U C E C H E M I C A L R E S I S TA N C E The high performance super-aramid fibers used in TuffyHP round slings exhibit high resistance to both acids and alkalis as well as organic solvents. They are also stable against seawater and steam and show good hydrolytic resistance. A D J U S TA B L E W E A R PA D S & S A F E T Y A L L S TA N D A R D In addition to the already tough exterior, TuffyHP round slings all receive two heavy duty adjustable wear pads to protect lifting eyes and to increase abrasion resistance. For maximum visibility and safety, each sling is stenciled with the model number which easily identifies the vertical lifting capacity and is tagged with full capacities and usage information.

E X C E P T I O N A L R E S U LT S TuffyHP round slings are manufactured using the same proven and familiar process used for over 10 years in the Flexi-Grip product line, but now with the introduction of engineered, high-performance inner super-aramid fibers, encased in an abrasive resistant jacket, high performance round slings take on a whole new level of lifting capabilities. H I G H H E AT R E S I S TA N C E TuffyHP round slings maintain good properties even under high temperature rigging environments up to 350 F, while other high performance synthetic slings may begin to deteriorate at 200 F. U N S U R PA S S E D S T R E N G T H T O W E I G H T R AT I O TuffyHP round slings exhibit super high strength when compared to other sling materials of the same weight. TuffyHP slings are 8 times as strong as steel and 3 times as strong as polyester or nylon. Lower overall sling weights result in faster rigging times, increased rigger safety during transport and the rigging process, and a higher load capacity per lift since less weight is required for the sling itself. S L I N G FAT I G U E & S T R E T C H R E S I S TA N C E L E S S T H A N 1 % STRETCH TuffyHP super-aramid fiber round sling has a longer service life when compared to other high strength slings and maintains a stretch factor of less than 1% at its rated capacity. This enables precise load control that minimizes adjustments for stretch and reduces headroom problems of your lift.

FLEXI-GRIP ROUND SLINGS

Roundslings are fabricated with high-quality, high-strength 100% polyester fibers. These fibers are encased in a seamless double-walled polyester jacket providing maximum protection to the inner load bearing fibers. These slings offer an exceptionally soft and easy-to-work-with rigging tool that grips the load without marring load surface. F L E X I - G R I P R O U N D S L I N G R AT E D C A PA C I T I E S
