Overview

This 8 mm single leg lifting chain is manufactured from Grade 80 alloy steel chain, the minimum standard required for lifting operations, making it a reliable, compliant choice for vertical hitch lifts in construction, manufacturing, and general industry.

Each chain is produced using the German WAFIOS automated knitting, spot-welding and calibration process, ensuring every link is identical in form and strength. All components are quenched, tempered and proof load tested to 2.5 times the Working Load Limit (WLL), with an ultimate load capacity of 4 times the WLL.

Choose from five hook configurations to suit your application: Clevis Sling Hook, Clevis Self Locking Hook, Clevis "C" Hook, Eye Self Locking Swivel Hook, or Clevis Forest Hook. Select a chain length from 1 m to 10 m, and optionally add a shortening clutch for added versatility on site.
