Value Collection WS-MH-CHN-163 Quick Link 5/16 in Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WS-MH-CHN-163 is a 316-grade stainless steel quick link rated for a 7,040-pound load limit and a 1,760-pound working load limit. Quick links are oval-shaped connecting links with a threaded gate, used to join lengths of chain, wire rope, hooks, or rigging hardware. The 316-grade stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard 304-grade material, making this link well suited for marine, coastal, and high-moisture environments. The link measures 0.31 inches in diameter and is sold in a package quantity of 10.

This quick link is used across a wide range of rigging, lifting, and tie-down applications in marine, industrial, and construction settings. Typical uses include connecting anchor chains, securing rigging assemblies, attaching hooks to wire rope, and general load-bearing connections where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 1,760-pound working load limit is the safe operational rating under normal service conditions. This link is appropriate for use by riggers, marine technicians, construction crews, and maintenance professionals.

Installation Notes

Quick links are installed and removed by hand; thread the gate fully closed before placing the link under load. Never exceed the stated working load limit of 1,760 pounds during normal service. Inspect the gate threads and body for deformation, corrosion pitting, or mechanical damage before each use, and remove any damaged links from service immediately. Rigging work involving overhead lifting should be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with applicable ASME B30 and OSHA rigging standards.
