Pewag CARW 16 5/8" Connecting Link

Product Description

The Pewag CARW16 Round Sling Connecting Link is a specialized connecting link designed for use with round slings in overhead lifting applications. The CARW series is engineered with a wider, rounded profile that accommodates the body of a round sling without causing pinching, cutting, or stress concentration at the connection point, which is a critical consideration when using synthetic round slings that can be damaged by sharp edges or narrow link openings. The 5/8" size provides the appropriate opening width and rated capacity for medium to higher-capacity round sling lifting configurations.

The CARW16 is manufactured from alloy steel and designed to provide a secure and compatible connection between round slings and the hook of a hoist, crane, or other lifting device. The wide body and smooth internal profile of the link distribute the load across the sling body evenly, protecting the sling from localized wear and maintaining the integrity of the sling assembly throughout the lift. This makes the CARW16 a preferred connecting link in applications where round slings are used regularly and sling longevity is a priority.

As part of the Pewag lifting hardware range, the CARW16 is built to the same quality standards as Pewag's broader line of lifting chain fittings and connecting hardware. It is suited for use in steel fabrication, construction, general industrial lifting, and any application where round slings are the preferred lifting medium and a compatible, sling-friendly connecting link is required to complete the assembly.
