FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between DIN 5685A and DIN 5685C?
A: Type C chain has shorter links and higher strength, while Type A is lighter and more flexible.
Q2: Is the DIN 5685 chain suitable for lifting?
A: No, the DIN 5685 chain is not designed for lifting. For lifting, G80 or G100 chains should be used.
Q3: Can you provide the chain in 316 Stainless Steel?
A: Yes, we offer both AISI 304 and AISI 316 for DIN 5685, which are ideal for high-corrosion or decorative applications.
