LES USA Supplies Urgent Wire Rope Slings To Meet Customer Demands

LES USA was tasked with supplying urgent custom made Wire Rope Slings and Shackles to satisfy requirements for a customer in need. 

Having checked out with their normal rigging supplier, the customer (who we won't name for privacy reasons) was unable to obtain the desired rigging slings in time to perform their critical lift which takes place today. LES USA stepped up to the plate and was able to deliver a domestic manufactured wire sling solution along with Green Pin lifting shackles in record-breaking time, not only delivered in time, we delivered early.

Heavy lifts often require a robust solution and even more commonly- a custom made solution. Fortunately, we are able to procure and manufacture the material in rapid time frames which means we can deliver our superior products and solutions on time, every time. 

Wire Rope Slings are constructed of a core and multiple strands of wire helically wrapped around the core to give a robust combination of ductility and strength. Often used in heavy-duty applications, offshore and on-shore. Each assembly is tested and tagged upon compilation and shipped with a certificate of conformity, this ensures absolute traceability.

Available as standard with soft eyes at both ends, our wire ropes can be customized to feature reinforced thimble eyes and even multiple legs suspended from a masterlink, this type of sling is commonly known as a 'bridle sling' and can terminate in various hardware such as hooks or shackles.
