Alloy Master Links & Sup-Assemblies
To support a wide range of end-user applications, Gunnebo Lifting manufactures a wide range of grade 80 alloy steel master links. Gunnebo Lifting master links are joined to grade 80 alloy steel chain slings using G-Link connectors, SK connectors, and BL connectors.
Gunnebo Lifting links are made using the most modern technology. The design is wider and somewhat shorter than most standard grade 80 alloy steel master links to accommodate modern crane hooks.
The additional width, especially in larger sizes, allows the rigger to install thimbles to larger sized wire ropes used to bridle configurations. Primarily manufactured to support alloy steel chain sling fabrication, these links are very often used for wire rope slings. |

Triple or Quadruple Leg Sling
(when assembling a clevis system sling)
Cut chain to length and count the links. You must have an odd number of links so hooks hang in the correct plane. (Hooks should always point out, as shown in diagram.) If the measurement falls in the middle of a link, the next link is cut.

4.
|
A metal I.D. Tag must always be attached to a chain sling, showing serial number, size, reach, rated capacity at angle of lift, and manufacturer. |
|
5.
|
The reach of the sling is the length measured from the load bearing surface of the master link to the load bearing surface of the hook or lower terminal (as shown in illustration). |
