“I’ve known SWOS since 1994 for their fabricating and testing capabilities. Recently I got involved in a project where very tight tolerances for the length of slings were required. Once again, I was impressed by SWOS. They were able to consistently meet length tolerances of less than half a diameter in a series of spliced slings that exceeded 200 diameters in length.”
