GM CLIMBING 16mm Nylon Sling Runner 22kN / 4950lbf CE UIAA Certified

I use this strap primarily for hunting from a tree stand, and it has worked perfectly for my setup. I attach it to an eyelet and connect my tree stand harness to the carabiner, which helps keep everything secure while preventing any metal-on-metal noise. Build quality: The strap looks and feels durable, with solid stitching and a strong clasp. The materials seem high quality and built to last even with frequent outdoor use. Performance: It holds firm without slipping or creaking, and it stays quiet when I shift or adjust my position. That makes a big difference when you are trying to stay undetected in the stand. Overall: A simple, well-made piece of gear that does its job reliably. Great for anyone who wants a quiet, sturdy connection point for their harness setup. Highly recommend it for tree stand hunters or similar outdoor uses.

I was a little skeptical about these at first. I saw a one-star review claiming that the slings weren't really UIAA-certified. I had no trouble finding them in the UIAA database and they have been certified since 2019 and just got a renewed certification Jan 1, 2026. The product number on the slings I received matches the certificate (GM1602). So that settles that question. It's getting harder to find nylon slings since a lot of manufacturers are focused on dyneema or aramid these days. What I really like about these besides the great price: I can get different colors of the same length sling to make tying a quad for a top-rope anchor easy and fool proof. Many manufacturers use specific colors for specific lengths that forces you use two slings of the same color for a quad. So clipping onto two stands of the shelf risks being on just one of the two slings (no redundancy). If you know, you know.

Easy to use, the size was exactly what I was looking for, the length isn’t too long but enough to wrap around a 2”-3” pipe. I’ve used these for many things & you can tell that the material is well made & holds really well.

I bought 3 different sizes of these and I use them all regularly. They are climbing rated, durable, and a great price. They are much cheaper than the name brands out there. I will buy more once these show signs of wear.

Tested correctly. Would buy again.

love how lightweight and compact it is—it barely takes up any space in my pack but adds so much versatility to my setup. The bright orange color makes it easy to spot in my gear pile, and the 60cm length is perfect for most applications. Whether you're climbing, hiking, or need emergency rigging, this sling delivers. Durable, strong, and well-made—worth every penny! Highly recommend.

great sling

Great lanyard for my kite walkdown kit for the beach. I pair them with a carabiner from Black Diamond and they work well. Very strong. Can have two people lean into them bringing a big kite down no problem at all. Would recommend.
