Red Iron Pipe Slings are a temporary, engineered pipe restraint system designed to reduce the risk of injury caused by high-pressure pipe failure. These pipe slings are essential for securing wellheads, flowlines, pipelines, and other high-pressure well control equipment during operations.
Manufactured by Abdex, each Red Iron Pipe Sling meets ASME B30.9 standards and complies with leading global and Shell temporary piping safety requirements. The design ensures effective restraint, limiting pipe movement during failure events.
Abdex Red Iron Pipe Slings are available in 4ft, 10ft, and 20ft lengths. Each sling includes clear tags displaying compatible pipe size and PSI rating. For proper usage, operators half-hitch the sling at key points on the flowline and secure it using shackles. This allows for rapid seal replacements, quick disconnects, and safe reconnections.
Abdex also offers training and certification for correct installation and usage of all pipe slings.
