DIN 5685 Chain

DIN 5685 Chain

The DIN 5685 Chain is a strong, round link chain built to German standards, available in both short and long link options. Made from high-quality carbon steel, it offers impressive tensile strength and high break loads, especially in smaller sizes. With surface finishes like electro-galvanized, hot-dip galvanized, and self-color, this welded chain is perfect for general-purpose use. It’s durable, reliable, and not intended for overload lifting.

INSTRUCTIONS & CAUTIONS

WORKING LOAD LIMITS: This is the maximum load (in pounds) a chain should ever handle, even when it’s new and the load is evenly distributed along a straight, untwisted length. The “working load limit” doesn’t reflect the load the chain could potentially endure if conditions like wear, twisting, misuse, overloading, or corrosion are introduced. These factors can reduce the chain’s strength, so regular inspections are crucial to ensure safety.

PROOF TEST: This is the load (in pounds) a chain undergoes before leaving the factory. The chain is tested under direct tension in a straight line at a consistent speed using a standard testing machine. The purpose of this test is to identify any material or manufacturing defects.

All DIN 763 Chain​, DIN 764 Chain, and DIN 766 Chain are proof tested. When using attachments like hooks or rings, make sure they match the chain’s grade, type, and size for proper load-bearing performance.

GENERAL WARNING: Chains made from low and high carbon steel, along with weldless and welded options, are designed for pull or tension applications only. Do not use them for lifting or hoisting, especially in situations where failure could cause injury or damage. Avoid jerking or rapidly applying loads, as this can significantly increase stress on the chain.

We ordered a bulk batch of DIN 5685 chains in 8mm for our production line, and they’ve been perfect for our industrial applications. The chains are strong, durable, and hold up well under heavy use. We chose the hot-dip galvanized finish for extra corrosion protection, and they’ve been performing flawlessly. Delivery was on time, and the customer service team was very helpful with our order. Highly recommend.

I ordered customized DIN 5685 chains in 6mm for securing equipment and gates on our farm. The quality is fantastic, and the chains have been performing well in all kinds of weather. We went with the electro-galvanized finish, and they’ve resisted rust and wear. The ordering process was smooth, and everything arrived exactly as expected. I’ll definitely order again for future farm projects.

We purchased DIN 5685 chains for use on our boats and docks, and they’ve been perfect for mooring and securing equipment. We ordered the self-colored finish, and the chains have held up well in the marine environment. They’re strong and durable, just what we needed. Delivery was prompt, and the chains arrived in great condition. Definitely will continue to order from Powerful Machinery.
