What is the rated capacity for the 25,000 lbs Sling Leg?

The rated capacity for the 25,000 lbs Sling Leg is indeed 6,250 lbs. This capacity is derived from the fact that the sling leg is typically designed for use in sets of four, allowing them to support a total load of up to 25,000 lbs when all are used together. Each individual leg can safely carry 6,250 lbs when utilized as part of that configuration. Understanding this capacity is crucial for safe rigging operations in the field, as it ensures that the load is evenly distributed and that no single leg is overloaded, which could lead to equipment failure or accidents during an airlift operation.
