About
A 3 leg chain sling has three lengths of rugged chain connected to a master oblong at the top. This type of sling is also known as a triple leg chain sling or a 3 leg bridle chain sling chain since this configuration is meant to be used with a bridle hitch with three pick points. Hook Options for Three Leg Chain Slings Hooks are fitted on each end, and a hook can also be at the top rather than an oblong link. Hooks should be chosen based on lifting job requirements; options available include grab hooks, self locking hooks, foundry hooks, or sling hooks. Oblongs instead of hooks are also a possible configuration. Contact our sales team to order custom 3 leg lifting slings. Sling hook: also known as slip sling hooks, these large throat hooks are commonly used at the ends of chain slings and wire rope. they're typically self-locking to avoid disconnect. Self-locking hook: these hooks are designed to pivot in the middle and lock when lifting pressure is applied. They cannot be opened while lifted with your overhead lifting chains. Foundry hooks: these are extra-large throat hooks that are used in unique situations that require a larger opening to manage loads. Grab hook: these chain sling hooks have a small throat that attaches to the chain by slinging over the chain in-between links. Oblong master link: An oblong shaped ring used at the top of chain slings. 3 Leg Chain Capacity These lifting slings can be used at a 60, 45, or 30-degree angle of lift.
