The following is a WARNING as published by the ‘Web Sling and Tie Down Association’ in their ‘Recommended Standard Specification for Synthetic Web Slings, WSTDA-WS-1, version 2004’:

5.3.5 Environments in which synthetic web slings are continuously exposed to ultraviolet light can affect the strength of synthetic web slings in varying degrees ranging from slight to total degradation.

CAUTION: Degradation can take place without visible indications
  1. Factors, which affect the degree of strength loss are:
    1. Length of time of continuous exposure.
    2. Web sling construction and design.
    3. Other environmental factors such as weather conditions and geographic location.
  2. Suggested procedures to minimize the affects of sunlight or ultra-violet light:
    1. Store web slings in a cool, dry and dark place when not being used for prolonged periods of time.
  3. Some visual indications of sunlight or ultra-violet degradation are:
    1. Bleaching out of web sling colour.
    2. Increased stiffness of web sling material.
    3. Surface abrasion in areas not normally in contact with the load.
  4. PROOF TESTING WARNING

    Slings used in environments where they are subject to continuous exposure to sunlight or ultra violet light shall be proof tested to twice the rated capacity semi- annually, or more frequently depending on severity of exposure.
