Dayton Type U Web Sling — 6 ft × 4 in
This single-leg polyester sling is built for vertical, choker and basket hitches in lifting, pulling and conveying tasks. The universal link ends allow quick attachment without hooks. Rated to ASME B 30.9 and OSHA, it suits riggers and maintenance crews who need a lightweight, general-purpose sling.
Hitch capacities set the practical limits
Vertical hitch capacity is 6,400 lb, choker hitch capacity is 5,000 lb and basket hitch capacity is 12,800 lb. Exceeding the rated capacity for the chosen hitch type risks sling failure and load loss. The single-ply construction and 4 in width define the contact area and flexibility for each configuration.
Replaces worn or damaged single-leg polyester slings
The jump is worth it when an existing sling shows cuts, abrasion, UV degradation or missing identification tags. It also upgrades from improvised straps that lack rated capacities or standards compliance. Not for applications requiring multi-leg bridles, wire-rope strength or hardware such as master links or hooks.

Questions about this item
Should I choose a different length or width for my lift?
This sling is 6 ft long and 4 in wide with a single ply; select a longer or wider sling only if the reach or load distribution requires it.
What does the 6,400 lb vertical capacity mean on the job?
It is the maximum load for a straight vertical hitch; angle the legs and the safe working limit drops below that figure.
Which hitch types does the ASME B30.9 rating cover?
The rating applies to vertical, choker and basket hitches, with capacities of 6,400 lb, 5,000 lb and 12,800 lb respectively.
