Chain Sling - 3/8" x 5' Double Leg with Sling Hooks and Adjusters - Grade 100

This depends on the way the rig is set up. Loads up to 15000# can be lifted by lifting both legs simultaneously at an angle of 60 degrees or more (angle formed by the lifting chain and the horizontal of the load). It would be less if you were only using one leg or if both legs were used at extreme angles. In this example, using just one leg at a 90 degree angle would result in an 8800# load limit, while using both legs at a 45 degree angle would result in a 12400# load limit. You should still exercise caution. If you are lifting 17600# with both legs at a 90 degree angle, it might look like this setup would have this lifting capacity, but keep in mind that your rigging is as strong as the weakest link. My understanding of the master link is that it is not rated beyond 1500#.
