Ropes Edge The Edge Kick Plate Management System

The Edge is designed for use on the varying sizes & depths of “Kick-Plate” and other structural plate metal found on industrial & commercial work sites.

During the common practice of rigging steel slings over kick-plate to capture the rated structural steelwork below, they are often kinked & damaged due to the abrupt turning of the sling over the kick plate. Kinking introduces a significant loss of strength as well as the costly and regular need for replacement when damaged.

The Edge offers an increased bend radius for the sling to rest upon and retain the full strength of the wire ropes rating.
