William Hackett Sling Calc is part of the new William Hackett app that lets you configure your chain sling by taking you through a number of steps.

If yes is selected, then sling rating will be 45Β°-60Β°. If no is selected, the sling will be rated from 0Β°-45Β°. - Leg length – Do you know the nominal leg length? If yes, simply input the length. If no, use the diagram to help you and input the distance between the lifting points. The sling calculator will then work out the required leg length.
