Cromox CVE Grade 60 Stainless Steel Shortener - 0.4t to 8.0t

Shorteners (cromox® CVE) and sub-assemblies with shortener (cromox® CVK) allow the chain length or the length of a chain suspension to be adjusted quickly and easily on site – with millimetre precision. With little effort, the length of the chain slings can be adjusted with a chain shortener exactly as required for the respective application. The cromox® shorteners and sub-assemblies with shortener are made of stainless steel. This special steel is also called inox steel (from the French "inoxydable", meaning "non-corroding" or "rust-free"). The shortening hooks have special durability and functional design. Naturally, the entire combination of shortener, chain slings and load-bearing chain links is tested for fatigue strength in a Lloyd's Register-certified test laboratory as standard.

The special design of the cromox® chain shortener makes it particularly safe and flexible to use. Incorrect use is therefore impossible, and the chain suspensions can be quickly adjusted to the correct length. Made from stainless steel, the products are corrosion-resistant and particularly durable.
