A length of webbing folded back and spliced to the sling body, forming a closed loop, is called what?

Type III Web Sling Sling Angle Synthetic Slings Loop Eye

Correct Answer:

Loop Eye

Explanation:

A loop formed by folding the webbing back and splicing it into the sling body creates a fixed, closed attachment point. This configuration is known as a loop eye. The loop eye provides a secure, constant-size opening you can place over a hook or other hardware, making it a dedicated attachment point that stays the same size under load. The other terms refer to different concepts: a Type III Web Sling describes the sling’s construction type, Sling Angle concerns the geometry of how the sling legs spread, and Synthetic Slings is a broader material category. None of those describe a terminated, closed-loop end like the loop eye.
