*Rated capacities for unprotected eyes apply only when attachment is made over an object narrower than the natural width of the eye, and apply for basket hitches only when the D/d ratio is 20 or greater, where D=Diameter of curvature around which the body of the sling is bent, and d=nominal diameter of the rope. NOTE: Fiber Core W/R Deduct 10%.
**Working Load Limit = 20% of break strength unless otherwise noted.

DO NOT EXCEED WORK LOAD LIMIT OR 20% OF THE PRODUCT'S BREAK STRENGTH.
