Say you go back up to another master ring or another set of chain slings

I think yes it doubles the capacity for wires and web sling

[@jeffreychen2019]

I like it, cool!

[@sunjeevsharma1823]

What if both the ends (Oblong Ring as well As Eye Hook at Bottom) are put into the Hook of crane, Will it quality as basket lift?

Hi Sunjeev, a basket hitch rating, 200% of the straight line hitch, for a sling is based on both legs of the basket hitch being vertical and the proper D/d ratio for the type of sling used. If both ends of the sling are gathered into the hook, then the rating of the basket hitch will likely be reduced based on the angle of loading in the legs and the type of sling being used. If an eye hook is being used in this type of scenario, caution would need to used to make sure the eye hook seated properly in the crane hook and tip loading, back loading, and side loading of the eye hook or crane hook is avoided.

Basket hitch in mentioned case will not give you the double capacity because of the leg inclination angle and D/d ratio
