Grade 70 Transport Chain Overview
This Dayton transport chain is made from alloy steel with a gold chromate finish and a Grade 70 rating. It measures 20 ft overall with a 3/8 in trade size and straight links spaced at nine links per foot. The working load limit is 6,600 lb and it is not rated for overhead lifting.
Who This Suits and Who It Does Not
Builders securing heavy equipment or towing loads on flatbeds will find the higher working load limit useful for tie-down applications. Buyers who need chain rated for overhead lifting should look at a different grade. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Working Load Limit Decides Fit
The single specification that determines whether this chain fits the job is the 6,600 lb working load limit paired with the Grade 70 rating. If the load exceeds that limit or if the application requires lifting certification, this chain is not the correct choice.

Questions about this item
Will the 20 ft length reach the anchor points on my current trailer setup?
The chain is 20 ft overall, so measure the distance between your anchor points and allow extra for binding; if the span is shorter you can take up slack with a binder.
How do I confirm the chain is safe to use after installing it with a binder?
Inspect every link for cracks, stretching or deformed ends, verify the gold chromate finish is intact, and ensure the binder engages the straight links without forcing them sideways.
Does the 20 ft chain come with hooks or do I need to buy them separately?
No hooks are included with the chain; you must purchase compatible Grade 70 hook assemblies or grab hooks separately to attach it to your load.
