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 dock fender chains 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: Do Not Use for Overhead Lifting. DO NOT EXCEED THE WORKING LOAD LIMIT
