Gator-Flex®

Gator-Flex® Grommets are endless for heavy lifts that require short connection lengths. These slings can be made shorter than standard multi-part slings, but maintain all of their advantages. They are the most flexible grommets in the industry.

7 Part Sling

Each sling is fabricated by laying a continuous length of rope upon itself in a helical pattern throughout the sling body and the two eyes. Only two splices occur – where the two ends of the rope are hand tucked into the rope body near the eye at each end of the sling. This construction provides flexibility in the sling, for good handling characteristics in a sling body that is compact and free of metal sleeves or fittings. These slings have a smooth, cable-laid appearance in the body, and uniform eye configuration. Sizes also available in 5/8″ through 2″ “component” rope diameters.
