Dear Dr. Rhoades:
This is in response to your letter of January 12 requesting clarification of 29 CFR 1910.184 Slings.
Per our conversation of May 24, it would be permissible to remove a defective hook from a quadruple sling and then use it as a triple sling, so long as the integrity of the sling is not affected. A proof test would not be necessary since the rated capacity for triple and quadruple slings are identical.
We appreciate your interest in employee safety and health. If we can be of further assistance, please contact Carla Marcellus of my staff on 202-219-8041 ext. 105.
Sincerely,
Raymond E. Donnelly, Director
Office of General Industry Compliance
