Grade 80 Web Sling Connector WSC type

No.502002

The Grade 80 Web Sling Connector (WSC Type) is a heavy-duty forged fitting specifically designed to safely connect synthetic webbing or round slings to Grade 80 chain assemblies without compromising system strength.

  • Sling Protection: Features an extra-wide, smooth bearing surface that prevents pinching and excessive wear on textile slings.
  • Seamless Integration: Engineered to provide a reliable, direct connection between synthetic slings and standard Grade 80 rigging components.
  • High-Strength Forging: Manufactured from premium quenched and tempered Grade 80 alloy steel for maximum durability in industrial environments.
  • Certified Safety: Fully compliant with EN 1677 standards, proof-load tested to 2.5 times the WLL, and features a strict 4:1 safety factor.

*Correctly connects webbing to G80 hardware

Product Features

  • Sling Protection: The wide, flat bearing surface perfectly matches standard webbing widths. This prevents the sling from cutting against sharp edges or bunching under load.
  • Safe Link Connection: Acts as a reliable interface between synthetic slings and Grade 80 master links or hooks, replacing makeshift connections that can damage the sling eye.
  • Easy Assembly: Features a simple assembly mechanism with a load pin and retaining sleeve (similar to a Hammerlock), allowing for quick, tool-free attachment on-site.
  • Extended Sling Life: By ensuring the correct bend radius and preventing edge loading, the WSC connector significantly extends the operational lifespan of your lifting belts.

Flat & Wide Protected.
Sling stays flat. Load is distributed evenly across all fibers. Max WLL retained.
Standard Shackle
(Bow/Dee)
Curved / Narrow Risk of Damage.
Sling edges may curl or bunch up (point loading), reducing sling strength and causing premature wear.

Grade 80 Sling Components are the long-established industry standard for chain slings and heavy lifting. Fully compliant with international lifting regulations and designed for durability.

What Does “Grade 80” Mean?

  • High-strength Alloy Steel
  • Min breaking force ≈ 4 × WLL
  • Heat-treated (Quenched & Tempered)
  • Standard: EN 818-4 / EN 818-6
  • Marked “G80” or “8”

Common Grade 80 Components

1. Master Links

Used to connect the sling to a crane or hoist hook.

  • Master Link (ML)
  • Master Link Assembly (Multi-leg)
  • Pear-shaped master links

2. Hooks

End fittings for secure load attachment.

  • Clevis Self-Locking Hook
  • Eye Self-Locking Hook
  • Sling Hook with Safety Latch
  • Foundry Hook
  • Grab Hook (Shortening)

3. Connecting Links

Essential hardware to join chains or fittings.

  • Clevis Connecting Link

  • Construction & Civil Works
  • Manufacturing & Workshops
  • Steel Fabrication
  • General Industrial Lifting

Identification Marks

  • Grade: G80 / 8
  • Manufacturer’s ID
  • Size or WLL (Working Load Limit)
  • Traceability Batch Code

Grade 80 vs. Grade 100

Feature Grade 80 Grade 100
Strength Level Standard Industry Standard +25% Higher
Component Size Larger Smaller (for same WLL)
Weight Heavier Lighter
Cost More Cost-Effective Higher

⚠️ Safety & Compatibility Notes

  • DO NOT mix Grade 80 components with other grades (G70, G100) in the same sling leg.
  • Always match Grade 80 chain with Grade 80 fittings.
  • Observe sling angle factors and WLL reductions during lifts.
  • Inspect regularly for: Wear (>10%), Cracks/Distortion, Corrosion, or Heat Damage.
