Value Collection BDNA-33950 Grade 30 Cold Shut Link

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDNA-33950 is a Grade 30 cold shut link used to connect chain runs, hooks, and rigging components in light-duty load applications. With a 1/4-inch wire diameter and a rated load limit of 750 pounds, this cold shut provides a quick, weldless connection point without specialized tools. The link is opened and closed by bending the tip of the gate by hand or with pliers and is intended for static or low-shock loading conditions. Rigging crews, maintenance technicians, and general tradespeople use cold shuts for temporary or permanent connections in material handling, fencing, and general chain assembly work.

This cold shut link is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a fast chain connection is needed without welding or threading. Typical uses include connecting logging chains, binder chains, tow chains, and general utility chain setups. The Grade 30 rating places this link in the general-purpose chain hardware category, appropriate for non-overhead-lifting applications. It is not rated or intended for overhead lifting use.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or add-on cold shut link for standard 1/4-inch Grade 30 chain assemblies used in non-overhead-lifting applications.

Installation Notes

Cold shut links should be installed by qualified rigging or maintenance personnel familiar with chain hardware ratings. Before installation, confirm the load limit of all chain and hardware components in the assembly meets or exceeds the intended working load. Use pliers to close the gate fully and ensure the tip seats properly against the body of the link. This link is not approved for overhead lifting and must not be substituted for rated overhead lifting hardware.
