Type 5 endless slings are versatile and used for general purposes. The slings can be rigged in an unlimited amount of ways, and they can be readily adjusted to compensate for wear. GORILLA-EDGE™ polyester slings contain energy-absorbing fibers in the edge of the sling webbing that improve cut resistance and web protection. GORILLA-EDGE™ slings provide the increased abrasion resistance needed for many industrial applications. Polyester web slings are used primarily in conditions where acid is present or a minimum stretch is desired. Polyester is unaffected by common acids and hot bleaching agents, but the material is unsuitable for use in conditions where concentrated sulfuric acid and alkaline are present. Polyester is also unsuitable in locations where temperatures exceed 194° F (90° C). The Stretch of a polyester web sling at rated capacity is approximately 3%.
