Each rigging point has 30 kg (66 lb) working
load limit. Then choose the slings or chains of
required load resistance and length, bearing in
mind that the length difference between the front
and back slings or chains will determine the
vertical orientation. Alternatively, the back bottom
eyebolt points can be used to provide vertical
orientation.
The ANL-1 set is an optional set of four
eyebolts and four carabiners. (Dimensions are in
millimeters).
Flying with eyebolts
Each ANL-1 eyebolt has a rated working load
of 140 kg. (308 lb). Each ANL-1 carabiner has a
working load of 910 kg (2002 lb). If using other
hardware, make sure it is rated to handle the
required load.
When using eyebolts it is important to bear in
mind that the rated working load is only true for a
load applied in the plane of the eye, and is
significantly reduced for other angles. The drawing
illustrates the concept. The table shows the
variation of the working load as a function of the
load angle. In the case of the ANL-1 eyebolt, this
means that the 30 kg working load becomes 9 kg
at 45 degrees. Do not use eyebolt flying if the load
angle is higher than 45 degrees.
The following illustrations show different views
on eyebolt flying for a single box. The length of the
back cables or chains determines the vertical
angle of the box.
