Abstract
A fitting for a synthetic web sling. In one preferred embodiment, the fitting includes a spool for receiving the synthetic web sling. A hook is opposed to the spool, the hook having a width and having a saddle for receiving the synthetic web sling therein. The saddle includes an arcuate surface with an expanded diameter larger than the width of the hook. The saddle also includes a central raised portion. A pair of opposed frusto-conical bumpers are axially aligned with the saddle to laterally align the web sling on the saddle.
