Question: 1 / 225

Which sling configuration has the highest capacity for lifting?

Single vertical leg

Double vertical legs

Choker sling

Basket sling with 2 vertical legs

A single vertical leg sling only has one attachment point and therefore has lower lifting capacity compared to multiple leg slings. A double vertical leg sling has higher capacity than a single vertical leg but is still lower than a basket sling with 2 vertical legs. A choker sling also has lower lifting capacity as it relies on friction and can easily slide off the load. In comparison, a basket sling with 2 vertical legs evenly distributes the weight of the load and has the highest lifting capacity.
