Overview
This Grade 80 welded master link (model MLW-8-18) is an essential component for professional lifting and rigging applications. Manufactured from high-grade quenched and tempered alloy steel, it provides a reliable connection point between chain slings and the lifting hook or load, including offshore container lifting sets and multi-leg bridle configurations.
Each link carries a Product Identification Code (PIC) for full material traceability, along with the size and manufacturer's mark. The oblong profile offers a generous internal width and length, making it compatible with thimbles for use with larger wire ropes. Supplied with certification as standard.
