Figure 9-24.—HLU-196B/E bomb hoisting unit. other handling equipment. The hoisting bands are steel straps with either one or two points used to attach them to the hoist equipment. Look at figure 9-25. It shows a hoisting band configured with a HLK-278/F32K-5 band latch assembly and a HLK-279/F32-5 anchor fitting assembly. The band latch assembly is used to clamp the band around the weapon. The anchor fitting assembly is used to secure the eyebolt of the latch to the band, or to attach the eye of a hoisting cable to the sling. Configuration of these two assemblies with the bands Figure 9-25.—Example of a hoisting band configuration. makes it possible to accommodate many different sizes, shapes, and weights of stores. There are three different bands available-the short, light-gauge hoisting band (HLK-275/F32K-5), the long, light-gauge hoisting band (HLK-276/F32K-5), and the heavy-gauge hoisting band (HLK-277/F32K-5). These bands can be arranged for single- or double-point hoisting. (See table 9-2.) There are many different types of hoisting bands available, but the hoisting bands described above are predominately used throughout the aviation ordnance field They are used with the HLU-288/E and HLU- 196B/E bomb hoists during aircraft loading operations.
