Total Hire & Sales supplies a wide range of Grade 8 chain slings for lifting, positioning and handling loads safely on construction sites, industrial premises and engineering projects.
We can provide single-leg, 2-leg and 4-leg chain slings in a variety of chain lengths and working load limits to suit different lifting applications. Each sling can be specified to meet your requirements, including the chain size, overall length and type of end fittings required.

We generally source our chain slings from George Taylor Lifting Gear and can provide options based on the relevant Grade 8 lifting chart. Working load limits vary depending on the chain diameter, sling configuration and lifting angle, so our team can help ensure the correct sling is selected for your application.
The working load limit of a chain sling depends on the chain diameter, the number of legs in use and the angle of the lift. Multi-leg sling capacities are based on the legs being used symmetrically. The working load limit may be affected by sharp edges, unusual loading arrangements, excessive lifting angles or asymmetrical lifts.
Chain slings must only be used by suitably trained and competent personnel and must be inspected before use. Please provide details of the load, required chain length, lifting arrangement and preferred hook type when requesting a quotation.
Contact Total Hire & Sales for advice, availability and pricing on the correct chain sling for your requirements.
