A 2 leg chain sling has two lengths of chain connected to a master oblong. This type of sling is also known as a two leg chain chain sling or a 2 leg bridle sling chain since this configuration is meant to be used with a bridle hitch with two pick points.
Hooks are fitted on the ends, and the hook types can be chosen based on application need; options available include a sling hook, self locking hook, foundry hook, or a grab hook. A configuration with a hook instead of a master oblong is also available. Oblongs instead of hooks are also a possible configuration, contact our product experts to order custom 2 leg chain slings.
