The rope material with the loading factor to produce a safe working load chart.
Wire rope sling capacity calculation formula.
Three adjacent strands to one.
F w 2 where.
Rated capacities based on pin diameter no larger that natural eye width or less than the nominal sling diameter.
The safe working load for various rope sizes and slinging configurations has been combined to enable the swl to be taken directly from the chart.
All weight are calculated in kilograms kg.
Forsling swl depends on the length of the sling leg l and the headroom between the hook and the load h.
Example capacity of a single rope or wire.
The capacity of a single rope that follows a vertical line is 100 since the reduction factor is 1.
All diameters are measured in millimetres mm.
Wire rope sling selection rated capacities design factors and d d ratios.
Diameter in mm squared the weight in kg.

Single part body mechanically spliced wire rope slings flemish eye splice in the standard flemish eye mechanical splice wire rope is separated into two parts.
Whenever you lift a load with the legs of a sling at an angle you can calculate the actual load per leg by using the following three step formula.
Millimetres mm and multiply by 8.
Swl kg d2 mm x 8 for example.
To calculate the swl in kilograms of fswr square the rope diameter d in.
The rated capacity is based both on sling fabrication components minimum breaking force of rope used splicing ef ciency number of parts of rope in sling and number of sling legs and sling application components angle of legs type of hitch d d ratios etc if you are using one wire rope sling in a vertical.
The load chart below has been prepared for 6 x 24 1570 grade galvanised steel wire.
Then for bridge hitch.
Example for 12 mm dia wire rope.
For wire rope fs is 6 for general purpose and 7 for heavy industry.

Single part body mechanical splice slings have a higher rated capacity than hand spliced slings.
For instance try 45 or 30 degrees.
If the calculated head room is greater than the available head room try typing in a smaller angle for known angle a.
The rated capacity of a wire rope sling is based upon the minimum breaking force mbf of the wire rope used.
If the weight of a body is w the load in the wire is.
