Advantage:
1, Inexpensive and lightweight design makes them attractive to almost any industry or lifting application
2, Made of soft, flexible materials that grip and mold to the shape of irregular loads
3, Strong enough to lift heavy loads but will protect expensive and delicate loads from scratching and crushing
4, A variety of materials, construction, and specifications can tailor synthetic slings to almost any lifting application
Disadvantages
1, Synthetic slings have a relatively low heat-resistance and are not recommended for use in high-heat applications
2, Special considerations must be made when selecting a synthetic sling to be used in chemical applications. Nylon and polyester slings have different resistance characteristics to acidic and alkaline environments.
3, Synthetic slings are not as durable as steel slings when it comes to abrasion and cut resistance. 4, Corner protectors or edge guards should be used to protect against cuts and tears.
