Round slings

Round slings are among the most flexible and reliable lifting solutions for safely handling a wide range of loads. Thanks to their durable yet soft polyester construction, they are ideal for protecting sensitive surfaces and evenly distributing forces around lifting points. This makes round slings particularly suitable for irregularly shaped objects, pipes, profiles and machine components. Whether used for occasional lifts or daily operations in logistics and production, round slings combine ease of use with maximum safety.

Our round slings comply with the strictest standards and are available in a wide range of lengths and load capacities. Their low weight and ease of handling help optimise workflows, minimise risks and protect valuable goods during every lift.

About round slings


For lifting applications where flexibility, surface protection and ease of use are key, polyester round slings offer an excellent solution. They are specifically designed to wrap around loads gently and evenly, preventing damage to materials, coatings or delicate components.

Our range offers a broad selection of lengths and load capacities, ensuring the right sling for every lifting situation. Whether handling steel plates, pipes, profiles or assembled components, our round slings help you work faster, more efficiently and more safely.

Round slings

Round slings are a versatile and flexible solution for lifting loads where surface protection is important. They consist of a core of high-strength polyester fibres, protected by a durable outer sleeve. This design ensures even load distribution and helps prevent damage.

Our range of round slings is available with a working load limit (WLL) from 1 tonne up to 25 tonnes, with higher capacities available on request. This makes them suitable for both light and heavy lifting applications.

All round slings comply with the EN 1492-2 standard and are manufactured with a safety factor of 7:1, meaning the minimum breaking strength is seven times the permitted working load.

  • WLL range from 1 tonne to 25 tonnes

  • Even pressure distribution around the load
