Chain EUROLITE 50301616 round steel 8 mm WLL 400 kg

Round steel chain EUROLITE 50301616 round steel 8 mm WLL 400 kg is a compact, general-purpose lifting and securing chain designed for lighting, stage and light industrial applications. With an 8 mm link diameter and a working load limit of 400 kg, this chain provides predictable load-bearing performance for suspending fixtures, securing loads during transport, or creating temporary anchor points. The round steel construction offers a balance of strength and flexibility for routine rigging tasks where a small, durable metal chain is required.

Advantages

The chain offers reliable mechanical strength with a rated working load limit of 400 kg and uniform, rounded links that reduce wear on attached components. Its compact 8 mm diameter is suitable for tight fittings and small connectors while retaining sufficient tensile capacity for many lighting and staging uses. The simple steel construction is low-maintenance and compatible with common rigging hardware such as shackles, hooks and clamps.

Key specifications

How to use

Inspect the chain visually before each use for signs of deformation, excessive wear, corrosion or damaged links. Select compatible rigging hardware rated at or above the chain's working load limit and attach using properly sized shackles or connectors. When suspending fixtures, distribute load to avoid side loading on individual links and ensure that attachment points are secure. Do not exceed the rated working load limit of 400 kg and avoid shock loading or sudden impacts that can raise peak forces above the rating.

Recommendations

For prolonged outdoor use or corrosive environments, consider corrosion protection such as galvanizing or applying a suitable coating and perform regular inspections. Replace the chain if any link is bent, cracked, excessively worn, or if the chain has been subjected to an overload event. Use the chain only within its rated capacity and in accordance with applicable rigging and safety standards.
