Product Description

Endless Wire Rope Sling 16mm x 3m WLL 5.2T Choker / 13.2T Basket | LKS

LKS manufactures Endless Wire Rope Sling 16mm x 3m WLL 5.2T Choker / 13.2T Basket for industrial buyers who need a compact continuous-loop lifting sling with clear working load limits for choker hitch, basket hitch and general load handling applications.

The LKS Endless Wire Rope Sling 16mm x 3m WLL 5.2T Choker / 13.2T Basket is a specific endless loop sling made from 16mm steel wire rope. The 3m nominal length refers to the circumference length measured around the centerline of the endless loop, not a single straight leg length.

Unlike an eye-and-eye sling, an endless wire rope sling has a continuous loop body. This structure allows the contact and wear points to be rotated during use, helping buyers extend service life in suitable lifting conditions. For this product, the key rated load values are WLL 5.2T in choker hitch and WLL 13.2T in basket hitch, with 6.6T reference straight use.

Load Rating Note: The WLL values on this page are based on a 16mm 6x36 IWRC 1960 N/mm² endless wire rope sling. Final tag marking, proof test requirement and certificate details should follow the confirmed order specification and inspection documents.

Rated Load, Hitch Method and Breaking Load Reference

The rated capacity of an endless wire rope sling changes according to the hitch method. A straight reference lift, choker hitch and basket hitch do not have the same working load limit. For procurement teams, this means the inquiry should not only mention rope diameter and length, but also the intended lifting method and load contact condition.

Load Parameter	Value for This Product	Technical Meaning
Single-Leg Reference WLL	3.3T	Reference WLL for one 16mm 6x36 IWRC 1960 N/mm² steel wire rope sling leg
Endless Straight Reference WLL	6.6T	Reference direct-use value for endless loop configuration
Endless Choker Hitch WLL	5.2T	Reduced WLL when the sling is used in a choker or laced lifting method
Endless Basket Hitch WLL	13.2T	Higher WLL when the endless sling supports the load in a basket / U-lift arrangement
Reference Rope Minimum Breaking Force	Approx. 18.3T / 179.8kN	Calculated from single-leg WLL 3.3T, termination factor 0.9 and safety factor 5; actual MBL should follow test certificate
Safety Factor	5:1 reference	Common safety coefficient used for steel wire rope sling rating and specification

Why Endless Wire Rope Sling WLL Changes by Hitch Method

An endless wire rope sling can be used in different lifting arrangements, but each arrangement changes the working load limit. A choker hitch grips the load but reduces rated capacity because of bending and choking effect. A basket hitch can provide higher capacity because the load is supported by two parts of the sling, but the bearing point diameter and contact condition must still be checked carefully.

For procurement teams, this hitch-based rating helps avoid choosing an endless sling only by rope diameter. A correct inquiry should include load weight, lifting method, contact radius, bearing point diameter, D/d condition, required WLL marking, proof test request and packing method.
