Safe Lifting – with the Dolezych Chain Sling with Shortening Hook

When you're lifting loads in the workshop or on the construction site, you need a sling that simply works. Our single-leg chain sling with VGHS shortening hook, made from Grade 8 steel, is built exactly for that. It combines reliable lifting capacity with flexible handling – ideal for changing lifting conditions. With a lifting capacity of 1120 kg and a usable length of 1 m, you’re ready for many lifting tasks.

Robust Technology with Adjustable Length

The round steel chain made from high-strength alloyed steel complies with DIN EN 818-2, ensuring maximum safety in industrial lifting. Thanks to the integrated VGHS shortening hook, you can flexibly adjust the chain length – especially helpful when dealing with asymmetrical loads or changing lifting points on site. The clevis sling hook with safety latch guarantees secure attachment even in tough conditions. Compact, durable, and ready when you are – just as it should be.
