Product Description

9ft GAC Flex Steel Core Roundsling – Black Polyester Jacket (9-Foot Length)

The 9-foot GAC Flex Roundsling by Evolve Truss is the ultimate rigging solution for professionals who demand the heat resistance of wire rope with the surface protection of a round sling. Featuring a core made of continuous Galvanized Aircraft Cable (GAC) encased in a durable black polyester jacket, this sling effectively “floats” the load on a cushion of soft fabric while maintaining the strength and zero-stretch properties of steel.

Why GAC Flex?

Unlike standard nylon spansets which can melt under high heat, the steel core of the GAC Flex makes it ideal for suspending lighting trusses where fixtures may generate significant heat. The inspection window allows for immediate visual verification of the internal cable’s integrity, ensuring your rig is always compliant and safe.

Key Features

• Steel Core Safety: Constructed with a continuous coil of Galvanized Aircraft Cable for maximum strength and heat resistance.
• 9-Foot Length: Provides extended reach for larger truss grids or higher trim heights.
• Truss Protection: The soft Black Polyester Jacket prevents the steel core from scratching or denting soft aluminum truss chords.
• Theatrical Finish: Matte black jacket blends into the stage ceiling, making the rigging invisible to the audience.
• Inspection Window: A hook-and-loop flap allows riggers to inspect the internal wire rope for broken strands or corrosion.
• Heat Resistant: Superior to standard synthetics for use near hot lighting fixtures (up to 400°F).
• Zero Stretch: The steel core eliminates the “bounce” associated with synthetic slings.

Designed by Evolve Truss, this GAC Flex sling is the industry standard for safe, overhead truss suspension.

⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice

❗ Critical Rigging Guidelines:

• Load Ratings: Do not exceed the Working Load Limit (WLL) specified on the sling’s tag. Ratings vary based on hitch type (Vertical, Choker, or Basket).
• Inspection: Use the inspection window before every use. If broken wires, corrosion, or jacket tears are visible, remove from service immediately.
• Temperature: While heat resistant, do not expose to direct flame or temperatures exceeding the manufacturer’s rating.
• Professional Use Only: Rigging should only be performed by qualified personnel. The purchase of this product does not authorize specific installations.
