2-4 | Disposal of Damaged / Failed Slings

Author: Mike Close

If it’s determined that the web sling will be removed from service, we suggest cutting the eye in most circumstances to render the sling as unusable. When the sling body is long enough, the webbing should be cut into shorter sections, and the sling should be disposed of as general waste or trash.
