Hiya Folks,
I was hoping someone could help me understand what the WLL is on a negative blocking kit when all the components have different WLL ratings.
For instance the WesSpur standard rigging kit has a 5/8” loopie sling, WLL 1692 lbs, with a block that has a 2000 lbs WLL. A 1/2” rigging line wll 1400 lbs, and a port of wrap with a WLL 2000 lbs.
Does this mean that my WLL for the whole system is only as much as the lowest WLL? Also. If I understand it right then the maximum weight of a log I could negative block is 140lbs. Do I understand this correctly. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated, thanks for taking the time.
