Made to NACM specifications

This is the first thing you should look for to determine the quality of the chain you are buying.

The National Association of Chain Manufacturers has provided specifications for welded and weldless chain since 1933 on a wide range of chain products such as stainless steel chain, galvanized chain, decor chain, double loop chain, Grade 80 and tow chain.

Types of Chain

Hot-Dip Galvanized Grade 30 Chain for durability, resistance to corrosives, and weather resistance. Used for many of the same applications as the zinc plated but where greater durability is needed.
