Loops & Slings

Slings and Loops for Arborist Climbing and Rigging

Slings and loops are versatile components widely used in both tree climbing and rigging. They create anchor points in the tree, extend harness bridges, act as cambium protectors, and are part of complex rigging systems to control branches and trunks. Arboristbutiken carries slings and loops from English Braids, DMM, Edelrid, Cousin, Courant, Petzl, FTC Tree, Stein, Teufelberger, and NOTCH Equipment.

The assortment includes textile slings in nylon and Dyneema, rigging loops with and without stitched eyes, as well as specialized products like the Teufelberger tREX Loopie for dynamic rigging. Dyneema slings are distinguished by extremely low weight and high breaking strength, while nylon slings offer more energy absorption and are gentler on bark. Choose the sling's diameter and length based on the load size and anchoring method.

The right sling saves time, protects the tree, and is crucial for safe rigging. Slings and loops are used by arborists, riggers, and forestry workers who need flexible anchoring and load handling. At Arboristbutiken, we help you choose slings with the correct certification and load ratings for your specific task.
