Loopie Sling (Yalex)
Details
Many professionals prefer a Loopie for setting an arborist block in the tree. Loopies adjust to size by pulling the tail through bury, then girth-hitch the sling around the tree. Can be used for blocks, friction devices, etc.
These adjustable slings are made from tough, 12-strand Yalex hollow-braid ropes. This rope construction is strong, durable, and provides great grip on the trunk.
Made by our in-house splicing company, Iron Street Rope Splicing.
