Safe Lifting – with the 2-Leg Dolezych Chain Sling with Variable Leg Length
Want to stay flexible while lifting without compromising on certified safety? Then the 2-leg chain sling with integrated VHGS shortening hooks is exactly what you need. With a lifting capacity of 2800 kg at angles up to 45° and 2000 kg between 45° and 60°, it safely covers a wide range of standard lifting tasks. Its 6 m usable length makes it a compact yet highly versatile lifting solution.
Adjustable Lengths, Double the Safety
Both chain legs are made of high-strength alloyed steel according to DIN EN 818-2 and are equipped with a VHGS shortening hook each. This allows you to adjust the length directly on the sling – with no tools or reassembly required. It’s ideal for asymmetrical loads or when lifting points vary in height. Each leg features a GS-DD clevis hook with safety latch – robust, secure, and easy to handle.
