10mm lashing chain for strength and versatility

There are different types of lashing chains available, designed to suit specific load requirements. Grade 70 chains are commonly used for general load securing applications, providing high tensile strength and resistance to wear and tear. Grade 80 chains offer even greater strength and are suitable for heavy-duty applications. Grade 100 chains are the strongest, ideal for extremely heavy loads or specialized lifting and rigging operations. The choice of lashing chain type depends on factors such as load weight, working conditions, and regulations.

Lashing chains are made by using full automatic chain making machines. The result is a very clean weld for chain links. The more expensive 20Mn2 steel is used as raw material. In combination with the in-house heat treatment a stable quality is guaranteed. It also makes sure that the durable Assembled lashing chains reach the required minimum breaking strengths.

Lashing chains find application in various fields that involve transporting or securing loads. They are widely used in the shipping and maritime industry for containerized cargo on vessels. Lashing chains are also valuable in the logistics sector for securing pallets, crates, or other types of packaged goods on trucks or trailers. They are employed in the construction industry to secure heavy equipment or building materials during transportation. Additionally, lashing chains are used in the automotive industry to secure vehicles on car carriers.

The process of using lashing chains involves several steps. Firstly, assess the load size, weight, and type to determine the appropriate lashing chain and configuration required. Position the load on the transport vehicle or vessel, ensuring it is centered and balanced. Attach the lashing chains to the load and anchor points, such as D-rings or lashing rings, using appropriate hooks or connectors. Gradually tension the chains, applying force evenly to secure the load. Double-check the tension and connections to ensure proper load restraint. Finally, regularly monitor the load and lashing chains during transportation, making adjustments if necessary to maintain load stability.
