We’re with you as you reach for new heights of performance.

Today, there is a growing need to handle loads faster, more precisely, and—as labor costs rise—with fewer people.

For lifting applications, slings made with Dyneema® offer the same performance as traditional materials (e.g. steel wire or chain) while providing significant improvements in flexibility and handling.  In cable-pulling applications, Dyneema® offers many advantages in operations and speed.

 What’s more, the lifetime cost of owning equipment with Dyneema® is lower due to superior abrasion resistance that makes slings and ropes made with Dyneema® “virtually indestructible,” according to some of the industry’s toughest customers.

For example, a lifting sling made with Dyneema® is less than half the weight (and only about 75 percent of the diameter) of an equivalent polyester sling - which means the same cranes can now lift heavier net loads.

Dyneema® is “with you when it matters” during difficult lifting, cable pulling, and industrial operations:

Challenging materials handling

Tough lifting jobs—such as rolled steel coil which is not only heavy, but has razor-sharp edges—can quickly defeat standard slings.  Heavy steel rope slings pose hazards of their own to both workers (e.g. back injuries) and delicate loads alike.  Slings with Dyneema® address all of these challenges, standing-up to sharp or abrasive conditions and taking the weight off personnel—providing both with a longer useful life..

Utility industries

• In environments subject to extremes of weather, temperature, UV exposure, or harsh chemicals, ropes and slings with Dyneema® remain in optimal service longer. The material is unaffected by salt water and maintains its strength underwater.

• For power cable pulling, Dyneema® offers much lighter weight when working at great heights, it floats (to greatly speed and simplify broad water crossings), and it doesn’t conduct electricity which can aid in complex crossings with ‘hot’ power lines.

Emergency services and military use

• In critical situations around the world, emergency first-responders and military personnel have come to rely on slings made with Dyneema® when strength, precision and reliability have “life or death” consequences.

Salvage operations

• In salvage operations on land or sea, the safety of your crew is “Job #1.” By offering salvage crews greater flexibility of positioning, easier handling due to lighter weight, and consistent performance, wet or dry, Dyneema® has become a trusted part of some of the world’s most renowned salvage teams.
