Dayton Grade 30 Steel Chain 1/4 in 140 ft
This Dayton coil chain is made from carbon steel with a galvanized finish. It is supplied in a 140 ft length with a trade size of 1/4 in. The chain uses straight links measuring 1 1/4 in inside length and 3/8 in inside width. It is rated for a working load limit of 1,300 lb and is not intended for overhead lifting applications.
Pulling and binding tasks, not lifting
The chain suits general-purpose pulling, towing or securing loads where Grade 30 strength is specified. It operates across a temperature range of -40 to 400 degrees F. Buyers who need overhead lifting capability or a higher working load limit should select a different grade of chain. Hooks and end fittings are not included with this coil.
Working load limit 1,300 lb
The single figure that decides suitability is the 1,300 lb working load limit. Verify that this rating meets the requirement of the intended pulling or binding job before purchase. The chain carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.
