SAMSON Grade T(8) Chain Sling Lifting Systems
SAMSON Grade T(8) Chain Sling Lifting Systems
• Grade T(8) 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 slings are used primarily for overhead lifting and are generally used in conjunction with a crane or some type of lifting device
• Standard sling configurations consist of chain branches, which are affixed on one end to a master link or ring, with some type of attachment, usually a hook, affixed to the opposite end. Our Grade T chain slings are recommended for use in a industrial environments where flexibility, strength, resistance and long life are required
The reach of a chain sling is the distance between bearing points of the upper and lower terminal fittings. This distance, commonly known as the “Bearing to Bearing” should be quoted when ordering slings. Shortening clutches may be fitted to a sling, making the reach adjustable, hence increasing the versatility of the sling.
