Non-Load-Bearing Chains
FLOK supplies non-load-bearing chains DIN 763, 766, 5686: long-link, short-link, decorative-link — for rigging, tie-downs, fencing and decor.
Non-load-bearing chains are a flexible rigging element. Without additional bracing, or when the diameter is insufficient for lifting loads, chains are not used for this purpose. These products are used for stationary suspended elements, safety and tie-down structures, as well as rigging structures without elevated loads.
Non-load-bearing chains may be used for decorative purposes.
Classification
Non-load-bearing chains are divided into 3 categories:
- Long-link — used to lengthen or shorten an element by connecting links, with increased flexibility.
- Short-link — have a shorter link length, withstand greater loads due to lower mobility.
- Decorative-link — used for decorating objects in everyday settings.
Non-load-bearing chains comply with DIN 763 or DIN 766 (for chains with short links). Some models are used to form fencing.
Decorative-link chain is used in accordance with the requirements of DIN 5686.
The choice of chain depends on the diameter of the wire from which the element is made, and on the load on the structure specified by the manufacturer.
