Welded chains with straight links. This steel ink chain from RS Pro is made of welded steel and is suitable for suspension applications. With a Japanese chain, the chains can be used for storage and security applications. Galvanized. Available in various link sizes. Chains are supplied in lengths of 10 m. Applications: When selecting a chain, it is important to consider its load capacity and certification. A chain should not be used for lifting unless it is approved for that purpose, but it can be used for suspension purposes. Non-lifting chains can be used to secure items such as gates or gas cylinders in light to medium applications.
