Each component, from the alloy steel links to the accompanying master links and coupling links, undergoes stringent quality control and proof testing to ensure consistent performance and traceability.
G80 Alloy Steel Lifting Chain Specifications
Below is a detailed breakdown of the key specifications for various chain sizes. All working load limits (WLL) are based on a straight lift and must be de-rated for non-vertical or choker hitch configurations as per safety guidelines.
- Material: High-tensile alloy steel, quenched and tempered.
- Grade: 80 (G80).
- Finish: Self-colored, yellow zinc plated, or hot-dip galvanized for corrosion resistance.
- Standards: Complies with ASME B30.9, DIN 5687-1, ISO 3075, and other international standards.
- Testing: Individually proof tested to 2 times the WLL.
- Temperature Range: Recommended for use between -40°C and 200°C (-40°F to 400°F).
