The Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridle is the ultimate multiple use rigging tool. It can be used in applications where a standard two-leg or four leg bridle is used with the added advantage of self-adjustment to awkward loads. The Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridle self-adjusts over the center of gravity to find the lifting point. The Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridle can also be used as a complete riggil, or basket hitches. The use of two or more Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridles facilitates lifts with multiple lifting points. Can be used down to an horizontal angle of 45°. All Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridles are made with a CoverMax® cover.

The Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridle Sling is a multi-purpose rigging tool and it's important that it is used properly. The adjustment ring has a double sling on one side and a single sling on the other side.



If the lifting points are an equal distance from the center of gravity then the Twin-Path® Adjustable can be hooked-up with the double or single sling on either lifting point.		If the lifting points are an equal distance on either side of the center of gravity but one is higher, then the double sling should be attached to the higher lifting point.



If one of the lifting points is closer to the center of gravity, then attach the double sling to this lifting point. It will have the highest weight concentration. If the Twin-Path® Adjustable is attached so that the single sling is nearest the center of gravity, it will not allow the lift to be made.		Never use the Twin-Path® Adjustable Bridle in situations where the sling-to-hook angle is greater than 45°. Always connect above the center of gravity. If connections are made below the center of gravity, then the load may turn when lifted.
