A tag that must be legible or the sling is scrap.
Also known as: Sling tag, Lifting accessory tag
The tag on a lifting sling giving its safe working load and identification.
Gives a lifting sling's safe working load and its identification.
Contexts: Technical drawing
A sling whose tag is missing or illegible is withdrawn from use rather than assessed, because capacity cannot be judged by inspection — the tag is not a label on the equipment but part of it.
Contexts: Technical drawing
Capacity varies with how the sling is rigged, so the tag gives several figures and the applicable one depends on the configuration.
Not lifting guidance; configuration determines which rated figure applies.
Contexts: Technical drawing
A small rectangular sewn or swaged tag carrying the safe working load, the sling's identification number, its length and the standard it was made to.
