Value Collection WS-MH-CHN-023 Proof Coil Chain 5/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-CHN-023 is a Grade 30 welded proof coil chain sold in 1-foot increments from a 550-foot coil. Proof coil chain is the standard general-purpose chain used across construction, agriculture, towing, and industrial material handling. Each link is welded and manufactured to Grade 30 standards, giving the chain a working load capacity of 1,900 pounds. The self-colored finish means the chain ships without a painted or galvanized coating, making it ready for immediate use or field-applied finishing. The 5/16-inch stock diameter is a common size for light-to-medium duty securing, bundling, and lifting applications where a higher-grade chain is not required.

This proof coil chain is suited for general rigging, load securement, and farm or utility work. It is widely used by contractors, maintenance crews, and facilities personnel who need a cost-effective chain sold by the foot rather than in fixed lengths. The 550-foot coil allows buyers to cut to the exact lengths required for a given job. Minimum order quantity is 10 feet. Each inside link width measures 0.598 inches and inside link length measures 1.272 inches, which governs hook, shackle, and coupling hardware compatibility.

Installation Notes

Proof coil chain should be inspected before each use for stretched, cracked, or deformed links. Never exceed the stated working load limit. When used for overhead lifting, applicable OSHA and ASME B30 standards require periodic inspection and load rating documentation. Cut chain ends should be deburred to prevent handling injuries and hardware wear.
