Welded Galvanized Chain

Welded galvanized chain is a rigging device made of high-alloy steel with anti-corrosion protection.

It is a system of round or oval links connected in sequence by welding.

Depending on the precision level, calibrated and non-calibrated chains are distinguished.

In terms of technical parameters, the product must meet the requirements of GOST 7070-75.

Main advantages of welded galvanized chain:

• ability to bend easily;
• ability to work with loads of small dimensions.

Disadvantages include high weight, poor resistance to overloads and impacts, and the possibility of sudden breakage. For this reason, chains require increased attention and regular inspections.

Chain rigging devices are most often used for lifting/lowering not overly heavy loads in mechanisms with a sprocket, and less often with winding onto a drum.
