Grade 8 Products
Grade 8 Chain Sling Chart
-
The loadings used for Grade 8 alloy chain slings are determined on the basis hat the item is used in a symmetrical format in a multi leg sling.
Grade 8 alloy chain slings should not be used in hazardous conditions which would include offshore applications, the lifting of people or dangerous loads such as liquid metals, nuclear, corrosive or caustic substances and materials.
If an asymmetrical lift is required of a Grade 8 alloy chain sling, it should be referred back to the suppliers to establish a safe lift procedure.
If a Grade 8 alloy chain sling is being used against sharp edges or corners, the W.L.L. will be affected and should be referred to the supplier to establish a safe lift load limit.
