What are Metal Mesh Slings?

For heavy lifting industries, a sling is essential to the ability to move loads safely and efficiently. Cambridge® has designed the highest quality metal mesh slings available on the market today. Metal mesh slings can easily be rigged to either a choke or basket hitch, sometimes completely eliminating the use of two-legged slings or spreader bars. Cambridge® GRIPPER slings also reduce unhitching time and can be used with all types of products, including:

Coiled Strip
Thin Walled Tubing
Round Bar Stock
Precast Hollow Core Concrete Beams
Irregular Shaped Objects
Loads Subject to Hot or Corrosive Environments

Bishop Lifting Products proudly carries Cambridge® GRIPPER slings because these metal mesh slings display all of the features today’s companies require:

Strength: The all steel metal mesh construction of the slings can tolerate extremely abrasive loads without the risk of sling failure. Heavy lifting industries can also use Cambridge® slings in extreme temperatures—up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit and even higher when the slings are made of a special alloy. Most customers appreciate this type of environmental tolerance.
Safety: The metal mesh slings offered by Bishop Lifting Products are proof-tested at 200 percent of its rated work load; and the wide bearing surface helps to improve load balance and gripping power. These slings don’t kink or tangle like wire ropes or chain slings tend to do, which means your loads won’t shift or slip. The woven spiral construction of metal mesh slings eliminate the danger of a rotting core—such as can occur with a synthetic sling, or a weak link—which is relatively common with chain slings. All Cambidge® products are meet OSHA and ANSI B -30.9 standards.
Gentleness: Interwoven spiral waves give metal mesh slings superior flexibility, conforming to the contours of every load and eliminating the chance of gouging, cutting or marring your materials.
Affordability: Metal mesh slings typically outlast synthetic and wire rope slings, which cuts your long-term replacement costs. Add to this durability the fact that metal mesh’s repair costs are a fraction of the cost of a new sling, and purchasing these Cambridge® slings becomes a simple choice.
