Overview
This Grade 80 alloy steel connecting link is designed to join lifting chain slings and other lifting components quickly and reliably, without the need for specialist tools. Manufactured from high-grade alloy steel (quenched and tempered), each link is proof-load tested to 2.5 times its Working Load Limit and carries an ultimate load rating of 4 times capacity.
The two-piece C-link body design allows instant assembly, dismantling and reassembly of dependably safe lifting slings. Simply attach one chain or fitting to each C-link body half. When reassembling, it is recommended to fit a new pin and stud assembly, these are inexpensive and widely available.
Suitable for use with Grade 80 alloy chain in overhead lifting applications across construction, engineering, logistics and industrial sectors. Each link is marked with traceability information, WLL, batch number and size.
