CASTING DETACHABLE CHAINS

CASTING DETACHABLE CHAINS may be the first malleable iron chain to be used extensively to get industry-wide applications. It really is a lightweight, low cost chain obtainable in a full selection of sizes and can be used in a wide variety of applications where light and medium loads are carried at sluggish or intermediate speeds in relatively clean atmospheres. Constructed of one-piece, interconnecting links, Detachable Chain is simple to assemble and to disassemble. Person links are inserted from one aspect, at the proper angle, as illustrated.

The Detachable chain is manufactured in our cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). Tensile strengths of Promal links range from 880 to 21,250 pounds. Two link designs are also obtainable: Style •A” includes a simple hook and fulfills regular provider requirements; Style “B” includes a ribbed hook more suitable for heavy-duty support. All Detachable links are precision made to regular chain industry specs and are interchangeable with other manufacturers’ chain links.
