Built as a 8 by 3 foot triangle to choker assembly, the Machining & Welding Tri-Cho Wire Mesh Sling 8X3 FT carries a 9,600 pound working load limit.

This sling can be rigged as a straight vertical lift or as a choker hitch, giving you two ways to secure a load with the same piece of equipment.

The sling body is woven from galvanized steel wire mesh, with triangle or choker end fittings sized to match the rated capacity of the assembly.

Wire mesh handles heat and rough surfaces that would cut or melt a synthetic sling, which matters in foundry, forging, and scrap handling work.

Equipment like this shows up across a wide range of industries, from steel fabrication and machine shops to warehousing, construction, and vehicle service centers. Anywhere crews need to move a load overhead in a controlled, repeatable way, a purpose-built lift beam or crane keeps the job safer and faster than improvised rigging. Once a facility standardizes on the right lifting equipment for its typical loads, operators spend less time rigging and more time actually getting work done.

As with any lifting equipment, never exceed the rated working load limit, and inspect slings, hooks, shackles, and connection points before every use. Confirm compatibility with your hoist, crane, or trolley system before placing an order, and follow your facility's rigging and lockout procedures for every lift. A few minutes spent checking hardware condition and load balance up front is far cheaper than dealing with a dropped or shifted load later, and it keeps your team's daily routine consistent from one job to the next.

Rigging hardware like this sees repeated use, so look for equipment that is properly rated, clearly marked, and traceable to a manufacturer that stands behind its specifications. Keeping documentation on hand for each piece of equipment also makes routine inspections and any future certification requirements easier to manage.
