A two-legged chain sling measurement guide

Image
Introduction Each master link's effectiveness will be determined by its size, strength, length, efficiency and other factors. On construction sites that have heavy construction loads or rigging pipes, two-slings may be possible. Construction projects' horizontal load capacity The main parameter that determines the vertical load capacity of the 2 leg Chain Sling is the master link, or mechanical strength. This is dependent on the strength of the beam and its attachment.       Two-leg chains that are two feet long can lift large drums and containers. They are connected to horizontal beams which run the length the factory's production space. Service engineers must confirm the dimensions of chain-slings before they are lifted or moved. These are the most critical parameters. Master, sub-link diameter Strength Length Load dimension Relationship between the load dimension and the length of the chain Tree can withsta...

Differentiating Grade100 Chain Slings from Grade80 Chain Slings

Image
  For lifting large loads in overhead facilities, alloy steel chain slings work best. There are many kinds of alloy steel chains. Grade 80 is the best choice for many industrial applications. Chain slings made from Grade 100 are more durable and reliable than those made of Grade 80. It can take 25% more work. What are the main differences between Grade 80 and Grade 100 chain-slings Let's take a closer look at the differences. Chain Slings Grade80 The Grade 80 standard chain-straps are lightweight and strong. These can be used in industrial applications such as towing and recovery. Flatbed trucking uses grade 80 chain rating to protect industrial heavy-duty loads. These high-quality, economical alloy steel chains can be used for lifting or towing chain. Chain Slings Grade 100 The new Grade 100 chain-sling standard is a popular choice. This replaces the Grade 80 Slings. Chain slings...

An overview of the features of a forklift

  Forklifts can be used in many ways. This blog is for those who just started to learn material handling and want to refresh their knowledge about forklifts. Let's begin with the exterior and structural elements. Mast The mast is the vertical support which lifts and lowers the load. It's sometimes called the 'upright. Hydraulic pistons move a carriage attached to the mast. Transport A carriage is a support structure that permits forks to be attached or mounted. It's the platform that allows forks mount or attach to the mast. Back Rest It protects the mast's pipes from damage and prevents items falling through the mast and hitting the operator. It attaches on the carriage and stops loads from moving backwards. Fork These forks can be used during transport to contact a load. To transport a load, these forks can attach to the carriage. Lift Cylinder The lift cylinder controls lifting and lowering the carriage and...

High quality 2-leg chain slings, with a selection of lengths and sizing to suit your climbing needs. Available in an extensive range of 7mm, 8mm, 10mm, 13mm, 15mm, and 16mm chains. The 2-leg chain is easily mounted using traditional leg screws and quick release screws. For quick on and off adjustments it's recommended you use a cable release. The various styles of climbing harnesses This style of climbing harnesses are used by: lead climbers, sport climbers, mountaineers, backpackers and even hikers. These slings feature a low profile design that is great for: indoor and outdoor use. You can have both legs used at the same time, increasing the ability to gain climbing momentum when you're nearing the top. When used simultaneously, the 2 leg chain sling lets you keep both feet on the ground. The two-leg chain sling comes with a variety of attachment points and features.
