ACERA™ Double-Grommets
Double-Grommets
High Performance slings – up to MBL 2 595 ton
Double-grommets made from High Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE) have set new standards for lifting gear.
The Acera™ grommets are made from Acera™ Amundsen 12 strand ropes or Acera™ daGama.
Acera™ Amundsen and Acera™ daGama are high performance ropes made from genuine Acera™ HMPE yarns, which are individually coated through a rotating 360° Kiss-roller process.
Single yarn coating is proven to significantly enhance internal and external abrasion resistance, and extend service life and strength. The grommets eyes have Protech™ hollow braid protection. A proprietary braided protection made from Acera™ yarn.
All Acera™ grommets are produced in accordance with own technical file based on ISO 18264:2016 standard. The eyes are hand-spliced with our own positive locking tuck variant, ensuring anti-slip under all circumstances. Acera™ grommets are the alternative to cumbersome steel wires. They are stronger and safer. The corresponding weight is more than 7 times lower. Compared to conventional fiber ropes, the resulting reduction in diameter leads to significant savings in weight (60%), space and handling. Acera™ grommets provide a safer and more productive lifting operation. The light weight, ultra strong Acera™ slings are available at a market competitive price and can be customised to suit numerous applications.

Nominal diameter as per definition in ISO 1968. Minimum strength defined as MBF/MBL (Minimum Breaking Force, minimum break load) of spliced application is calculate from ISO standard 10325 table 1 - Minimum breaking strength unspliced ropes x coefficient 3,2 - tested according to ISO 2307 and verified by hundreds internal tests. Work Load Limits (WLL) is measured in metric tons and kilonewtons based on a safety factor 7:1 as defined by Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
