Lift-All Edge Defender Flex Plus Protective Sleeve

Our new Edge Defender Flex Plus made with DyneemaT fiber woven to provide cut protection for a variety of edges and surfaces, commonly used with recovery straps. The 'Flex Plus' is the addition of a double-plied layer of Dyneema with Kevlar aramid binding. These pads are thinner, lighter, and more flexible than the standard Lift-All Edge Defender, yet maintain the same level of cut protection performance. The Edge Defender Flex Plus is well suited for handling loads with a straight, curved or non-uniform shaped edge, including coil handling applications.

Lift-All White Wear Pad

There is a high probability that synthetic slings, in direct contact with load edges, will be cut, resulting in sling failure and possibly death, if sling is not properly protected. Always using Sling Protection to avoid damage to your slings and catastrophe. This is the importance of wear protection. Wear Protection products like wear pads extend the life of slings by reducing exposure to abrasion and other similar forms of damage. Wear pads also help protect load surfaces from damage along points of contact, particularly when used with steel slings. Always inspect slings by following the safety bulletin provided with each sling.
