The Nano Series is a ground-breaking advancement in sling and rigging technology, designed to deliver ultra-compact, high-strength performance in a class of its own. Leveraging a unique fusion of advanced materials and cutting-edge polymers, Nano slings provide solutions that were previously thought impossible. At the core of every Nano product is a proprietary yarn system encased in a specialized outer sleeve that compresses the core fibres minimising movement, reducing creep and maximising strength retention over time
Designed for use as a PPE Anchorage but also as a lifting and rigging sling
All variants share the core design principle (endless fibre core + protective sleeve) and the 7:1 safety factor (for lifting)
The Nano Guard is designed for enhanced heat resistance compared to polyester or UHMPE slings. The Aramid core tolerates higher continuous temperatures (~ 200°C) without significant strength loss, and can tolerate heat up to 500°C before ultimate failure making Guard suitable for moderately hot environments (e.g near boilers or hot pipes). The polyester sleeve provides UV protection but will melt or char at extreme heat, so avoid direct flame contact (for welding or open flame scenarios please see Thermo A)
