Grade 80 Chain Specifications

Determining chain working load limits.

Grade 80 chain specifications.

Chain grades for overhead lifting g80 g100 or g120. It s tested throughout the manufacturing process and meets and exceeds the specifications of nacm astm and osha. That number is the chain grade. Newer and stronger still is grade 120 chain.

Quenched and tempered before proof testing grade 80 chain specs have tensile strength twice of ordinary steel chain. You could reverse this formula to determine ultimate breaking strength if all you know if the chain grade. There are no minimum. Lacled alloy chain and attachments offer a design strength and elongation surpassing the national association of chain manufacturers nacm specifications as shown in the following charts.

The astm states that alloy chain shall be able to elongate a minimum of 20 before fracture. Peerless grade 80 chain meets the latest guidelines of the national association of chain manufacturers nacm and astm a391 a391m. Our grade 80 bulk chain is european made by kwb a pewag company.

Our selection includes full drums of grade 80 chain half drums of chain and cut grade 80 chain by the foot as well as tie down assemblies. Grade 80 alloy chain. Chain grades advertised by manufacturers are one tenth of the actual mathematical grades.

Laclede alloy grade 80 100 chain and attachments are produced to exceed the rigorous requirements of overhead lifting. So grade 80 is really 800 and grade 120 is 1 200.
