Grade 80 chain EN 818-2
Engineered for critical lifting and hoisting operations, Grade 80 (G80) chain, certified to EN 818-2 standards, is the primary structural component for high-tensile steel wire rope and chain slings. When integrated with certified master links and components, alongside rigorous Working Load Limit (WLL) calculations, it ensures a superior level of operational safety and regulatory compliance in heavy-duty environments.
Manufactured from premium hardened and tempered alloy steel, this chain provides exceptional tensile strength and dimensional stability. Its specialized heat treatment maximises fracture toughness, ensuring peak performance even under arduous working conditions and hostile industrial environments. To guarantee total structural integrity, every production batch undergoes a certified Proof Force test at 2.5 times its WLL, validating its mechanical properties prior to dispatch.
Benefits:
- Superior Wear and Abrasion Resistance: Due to its advanced metallurgy, it significantly outperforms conventional carbon steel chains in terms of durability and service life.
- Enhanced Load and Tensile Capacity: Specifically optimised to withstand high mechanical stress in professional rigging and lifting applications.
- Certified Safety to EN 818-2: Manufactured and tested in strict accordance with EN 818-2, specifying the precise dimensional tolerances, testing methodologies, and the 4:1 Factor of Safety required for overhead lifting operations.
