A grommet is a special type of sling which forms a continuous loop. Grommets either have a wire rope body or a body made up of six strands which are laid around a strand core. Either a hand-splice or a mechanical splice then forms an endless sling body. The minimum circumference of the sling is 96 times the grommet’s body diameter.

Cable layed grommet slings are widely used on offshore field and on heavy lifting operations, they are available in a wide variety of different lengths and designs and offer the user great flexibility when lifting and moving heavy loads.
