Turbine Component Lifts - Twin-Path® Slings

Twin-Path® slings are regularly used to lift turbine shafts and other components. These pictures show a 155 ton turbine shaft being lifted out of a large lathe. Note that the highly polished shaft surface does not need expensive and time consuming wood padding but only a layer of craft paper for lifting. Twin-Path® slings do not scratch or mar surfaces.
