Exoset Grade 10 Lifting Chain

Lifting Chain configurations 

The type of sling used, one, two, four legs, and the angle of each chain leg to the vertical, can all have a bearing on the maximum working load limits.

It is for this reason that such things as lifting beams and lifting spreaders are added, to keep each chain as close to the vertical as possible, increasing the maximum weight it can safely lift.

Benefits of using Shortening Grab Hooks

One chain sling able to be shortened for use at different lifting lengths.

Shortening Grab Hooks in multi-leg slings will adjust the leg length but care must be taken to ensure that no one leg is overloaded as a result. Bear in mind that if the legs are not equally disposed about vertical, the leg making the smallest angle to the vertical will carry a larger share of the load.

 

Choosing the Right Grab Hooks

EXOSET® Cradle Grab Hook
0% reduction in sling capacity

Cradle Grab Hook cradles the length of a single link along the bottom of the throat opening, allowing enough room for a single link diameter to extend downward from both sides.
