Bigfoot now offers wire rope / steel chokers with flemished loops from ¼” – 2” thickness in lengths of 4’, 6’, 8’, 10’, 12’, 15’, and 16’ to complement our existing product line of ground stabilization tools. Wire rope / steel chokers are great for material handling, crane rigging, and overhead lifting. Flemish loops with thimbles are formed at each led and by mechanical splicing. Our rope slings are made from independent wire rope core (IWRC), which offers less stretch and resistance to crushing while maintaining flexibility.
