Never exceed 120° at the top - avoid angle of inclination less than 15° because of the risk of instability
 
The figures you get from the table are to be considered as theoretical. The actual sling WLL is obtained multiplying it by the relevant figures you can find in the following table:
         
Temperature -40° ÷ 200°C 200° ÷ 300°C 300° ÷ 400°C above 400°C
1 0,9 0,75 not permissible
Edge load protect the chain
R > 2 x chain diam R > 1 x chain diam R < chain diam
1 0,7 0,5
Asymmetric load slight unbalance strong unbalance in case of doubt the lifting process must be assessed by an expert
0,7 0,5
Frequency of use Intensity of use
very light light medium heavy
Occasional 1 1 1 0,943
Low 1 1 0,943 0,893
Medium 1 0,943 0,893 0,847
High 0,943 0,893 0,847 0,806

Don't expose the chain sling over 400°C - in this case the sling must be removed from service
