Chain

The chain is mainly used in areas where there's an exposure to sea water or fresh water from yachting, boating and other marine activities. Chains can also be used for other applications, including catering, hospital and food industries where public hygiene is of utmost importance. Chains have excellent corrosion resistance, thus they are also widely used in the manufacturing and chemical industries. We offer chains that are compliant to the AISI 316 DIN (766 or 763) standard.

Shackles

Shackles are known as the main connecting link in many rigging systems. They allow rigging subsets to be connected or disconnected at a quicker rate. Shackles have many applications; they are most suitable to be used on ships, boats and industrial crane rigging systems. 300-tonne shackles are mostly used during big lifts and for offshore applications. We offer shackles in various types, including the Green Pin Bow, Grade M Dee, Blue Pin Dee, Green Pin Super and ROV shackles.

Quick Links

Quick links ensure that chains and rings are joined securely. They have a threaded barrel that users can screw open to accept loops and rings, and screw close to retain them. They can also be tightened with a wrench to mitigate any negative repercussion that can be caused by vibrations. They come in various sizes ranging from 1/8 inches to 23/32 inches, and are a perfect fit for every project. Higher grade stainless steel provides increased durability and maximum protection against corrosion. Quick links are often ideal for marine linking and rigging applications.

Cable Clamp

Cable clamps are utilized in securing rope/braided wire or coil in securing equipment for transport or bridge and tunnel construction.
