XS HIGH PERFORMANCE ROUND SLINGS – HMPE CORE, HMPE COVER
22 February 2025
“High performance” round slings are defined as such because they are made with a special polyethylene fiber (HMPE) precisely defined as “high performance” due to its formidable properties.
HPRS-PA slings are made up of two parts: the HMPE core and the polyester cover.
The choice of HPRS-PA slings is recommended only for occasional use of the sling, as polyester fibre is not suitable for withstanding the high stresses typical of heavy lifting.
■ Compliant with EN1492-1.
■ Robust and flexible textile structure: adapts perfectly to the shape of the load.
■ Very high load capacity (15 times higher than steel).
■ Minimum elongation (0.5% of WLL; 3% of breaking load).
■ Very low weight (10 times lower than steel).
■ Superior quality materials.
■ D: d ratio = 1:1.
■ Possibility of applying NFC-RFID microchips (Tech for Safety).
■ 100% HMPE fibre in both the load-bearing part (core) and the external sleeve.
■ WLL: 10 – 100 t.
■ Minimum elongation at working load (0.5% of WLL; 3% of breaking load).
■ Safety factor 7:1.
■ MIN length = 0.5 m.
■ MAX length = 35 m.
■ Limit operating temperatures: -40°C +70°C.
■ Tear-resistant serial numbered load plate.
■ Wide choice of protections against the risk of abrasion and cutting.
■ Floats on water (specific weight = 0.97 g/cm3).
■ Excellent resistance to chemical agents.
■ Excellent resistance to UV rays.
■ Compliant with: DM2006/42/CE, EN1492-2.
Higher capacities can be produced on request. However, it is strongly recommended to use HMPE slings with Cordura® covering for all capacities above 100 t.
Before using the products, carefully read the instructions for safe use.

■ Inspection and repair of the slings supplied.
■ Development of specific products and solutions together with the customer.
Important Notice
As prescribed by the EN-1492-1:2000+A1:2008 standard (C.3.6 and D.3.7), slings must be protected from sharp edges and from the risk of friction and abrasion arising from both contact with the load and contact with lifting devices (shackles, eyebolts, lifting rings and crane hooks in general). If protection against cutting and/or abrasion damage is provided as part of the sling, it must be positioned correctly.
Begni Group is able to provide the most suitable protections to manage even the most critical lifts with maximum safety.
According to EN-1492-1:2000+A1:2008 (C.3.6 e D.3.7), slings should be protected from edges, friction and abrasion, whether from the load or the lifting appliance (shackles, hooks, lifting points). Where protection against damage from edge and / or abrasion s supplied as a part of the sling, this should be correctly positioned.
BEGNI Group supplies the most adequate protections to safely manage even the most critical lifting operations.
