Sizes and ratings
36 sizes, 1/4″ × 4″ to 2″-3/4″ × 24″. Working load limit 500 to 75,000 lbs. Every size has its own Indus part number in the table below, with the loads in the unit the manufacturer rates them in.
Choosing a size
Choose on WLL with the end fittings you will use — hook ends rate lower than eyes or jaws — and on the take-up length you need. Lock the body once tensioned so it cannot back off.
Ordering
Quote the Indus part number from the size table, or send the size and working load you need. Each consignment ships with the manufacturer's test certificate; say on the RFQ if your site needs anything more.

Size — Nominal size as the manufacturer states it. WLL, hook ends — Working load limit with hook end fittings, which rate lower than eyes or jaws. WLL, eye / jaw ends — Working load limit with eye, jaw or stub end fittings. Weight — Weight as the manufacturer publishes it. Ask us for the dimension drawing if you need it stamped.
WLL is the most the part may carry in service. Proof and breaking loads are test figures — never lift to them. Each load is shown in the unit the manufacturer rates the part in, and a size ships with the manufacturer’s test certificate.
