I have yet to find a light weight sling that doesn’t make some type of noise. Any plastic or quiet swivels or attachments? Appreciate it, minimalistic is fine.
 
Quake Hush Stalker type sling swivels are plastic and are quiet. I've put them on several slings and never had any issues.
 
I put some elastic wraps around the swivels, never hear them. Same things that are used to corral the end of adjustable webbing straps.
 
I once ground a set of sling studs to make them narrower and made small “bushings” to put on either side of the stud.

Yes, overkill. Yes, I was bored.
 
I have a few slings with Brute sling swivels which have a plastic/resin body and steel threaded connection for the sling stud.

Or the Express Sling has them already attached.

 
i've only had a few noisy slings. now i just keep them lubed with either a clp or teflon lube. dry silicon may also work.
 
The Brute sling attachments above are the ticket. I switched all my slings over to those and have not heard a swinging or squeaky sling since.
