Currently, there are only two manufacturers globally that manufacture Grade 120 lifting chain - RUD is manufactured in Germany, and pewag is manufactured in Austria. Although this catalogue showcases the pewag products, we can offer all G120 products from both European manufacturers.

​

Grade 120 has an increased working load limit of at least 50% compared to Grade 80, and 20% compared to Grade 100, and is manufactured in compliance with PAS 1061. A reduction of the chain dimension and thus also the weight of the chain sling is possible in almost any application. This high-performance chain comes with BG approval in G120, and also offers added resistance against edge loading thanks to its profile sections. Sizes ranging from 6mm to 16mm.

​

Benefits of G120:

• Higher bending resistance: The moment of inertia that is crucial for the properties of the chain is up to 6% higher in profile chain than in a round-link chain with the same cross section. For the user, this results in a higher degree of safety in case of edge-loading.
   

• Higher working load limits compared to G80 and G100, means that it is almost always possible to use a chain sling that is smaller by one nominal size, saving weight.

​

Significant reduced weight and easier handling

​

• Optimised strength and toughness characteristics at high and low temperatures.
   

• High stability and a low level of wear guarantee a longer life span.
   

• Complete traceability thanks to identification stamp on chains and components, enabling users to track the entire manufacturing process.
   

• Easy visual identification thanks to profile chain and G120 stamp on each chain link.
   

• ISO 9001 certification as a testimony to quality-assured, European manufacturing.
