They consist of a length of wire rope, which is made up of several smaller wires twisted together, and a fitting or attachment at each end that allows the sling to be connected to a crane, hoist, or other lifting equipment. The wire rope is flexible and strong and can be used to lift a wide range of loads, including heavy machinery, containers, and other large items.
