These Choker Slings are designed to grip or choke the load. Ideally suited to lifting bar stock, beams, lumber, bundles of pipe and similar material. The tapered sleeve splice, as well as the anchor hitch on Type 61-1OL-OCT, allows close snubbing of the load, insuring a positive grip.
The use of sliding choker hooks on Type 21-1OL-1TH increases sling life and permits faster handling.

*Rated capacities are based on minimum diameter of curvature at the point of load contact of 20 times the rope diameter. Rated capacities of choker hitches apply when the angle of choke is greater than 135 degrees.
**Information on EIPS ropes and fitting sizes with higher rated capacities is available on request.
