  • Patent number: 11227512
    Abstract: Wire rope tube tags are described that include chemically etched wire rope information on an outer surface of the tube tag. A flat sheet of metal may be etched to include wire rope-related information on a surface of the flat sheet of metal that may then be folded into a desired shape, such as a cubic tube, spherical tube, triangular tube, etc., to create a wire rope tube tag with the wire rope information on the outer surface of the tag. Several methods for attaching the folded tube tag are provided, including one or more holes located through the body of the tube tag through which a wire thread or zip tie may pass and one or more tabs extending from the tube tag that may be bent toward or angled toward the wire rope sling to pinch the wire rope and hold the tag in place.
