Grade 8 / 80 Lifting Chain, Chain Size 7mm to 32mm

Grade 'T' (8/80) alloy steel lifting chain specifically designed for chain slings, chain conforms to BS EN 818-2. WLL 1.5 tonne to 31.5 tonne

Model: 

AS1.5 Series / G8LC-3330

Grade 8 / 80 Lifting Chain, Chain Size 7mm to 32mm

Grade 8 Lifting Chain Grade 80 Lifting Chain

This Alloy Steel Chain is manufactured specifically for use in chain slings for lifting purposes. The chain is heat-treated for tensile strength and resistance to wear whilst also allowing for shock absorption. The chain is easily identifiable with "MA8" embossed at metre intervals.

Chain Properties

  • Work Load Limit (WLL) is the maximum load which the chains are designed to sustain in lifting use. The mean stress at this load is 200n/mm2 (MPA) and is based on a 4:1 factor of safety.
  • Manufacturing Proof Force (MPF) is the force to which during manufacture the chain is subjected to. The mean stress at this load is 500n/mm2 (MPA) which is 2.5 times the working load limit.
  • Minimum Breaking Load (MBL) is the minimum force of which the chain must withstand before failure. The mean stress at this load is 800n/mm2 (MPA). The minimum elongation before failure is 20%.
