Delta HMPE Round Sling 4000

The Delta HMPE Round Sling 4000 from HMPE Warehouse pushes into heavy-lift territory with a 40,000 lb vertical WLL and a remarkable 80,000 lb basket hitch capacity — all while remaining dramatically lighter than comparable chain or wire rope slings. This is where the advantages of UHMWPE fiber become especially clear: riggers get the load ratings they need for structural steel, heavy equipment, and oversized fabrications without wrestling with stiff, heavy rigging gear.

The sling's architecture pairs a high-strength UHMWPE core with a resilient polyester outer jacket. The cover absorbs surface contact, shields the core from cuts and chemical splash, and serves as a first line of defense that can be visually inspected for wear. The 3-inch body width and 0.88 lbs-per-foot weight keep the sling compact and packable for transport between jobsites.

The Delta HMPE Round Sling 4000 is a go-to solution for heavy civil construction, mining operations, wind turbine installation, and large-scale manufacturing where maximizing lift capacity per pound of rigging hardware makes a measurable difference in productivity.

Working Load Limits (WLL)

• Vertical WLL: 40,000 lbs / 18.14 Metric Tonnes (5:1 safety factor)
• Choker WLL: 32,000 lbs / 14.51 Metric Tonnes (5:1 safety factor)
• Basket WLL: 80,000 lbs / 36.29 Metric Tonnes (5:1 safety factor)
• Basket WLL (60°): 69,280 lbs (5:1 safety factor)
• Basket WLL (45°): 56,560 lbs (5:1 safety factor)

Every rating carries a 5:1 design factor, meaning the sling's minimum break strength is five times the stated working load limit — a critical margin of safety for repetitive lifting operations.
