Spider leg slings

I am looking for some slings for crane spider legs.

What would you recommend?

I have been looking at 19mm ten ex slings from Samson , sold at sherrill.

19mm Twin Carrier Tenex by Samson, per foot | SherrillTree.com

That should give me a wll of little over 2 metric tons.

Anyone who use something else they can recommend? And how long slings do you use?

Thanks a lot :-)

Cheers.

Just make your own up, use either rigging line or I used some climbing line, figure 8 either end, one end has a large loop to allow a 6 wrap prussic to be tied to the main rigging line, you then slide this up and down to get the right shape for the limb that you are cutting.

Know the feeling, gts ;-)

 

Climbing line sounds pretty weak for crane work :-/ doesn't it?

I have got some Amsteel blue as winch line. It's great, but you have to trie to avoid knots, as it has a pretty low melting point.

Saw that mark Chisholm uses Amsteel 2 plus - which is rope coated. Looks great.

Anyone who use the tenex 19mm?
