Overview

This Grade 80 alloy steel welded master link (Model MLW) is a critical component in chain lifting assemblies, connecting slings to loads in industrial, offshore, and construction lifting applications. Manufactured from high-grade quenched and tempered alloy steel, each link is individually proof tested to 2.5 times the Working Load Limit and supplied with certification for full traceability.

The oblong profile provides a generous internal width and length, making it suitable for use with thimbles and larger wire rope configurations commonly found in bridle arrangements. Each link carries a Product Identification Code (PIC) for material traceability, along with the size and manufacturer's mark.
