Chain slings are available in a range of material grades, sizes and assemblies. Select the slings to be used and plan the lift taking the following into account: On the Bongatron we have Nexen CP641 which seem pretty good in mild snow and ice - I was greatly relieved to discover this capability when descending from the Jura into Geneva last year down rather steep roads with big drops in unexpected snow! The missus and I were rather gripped to say the least......and the kids wondered what was going on, with Mum shouting 'Be quiet! Your Father's got to concentrate!!'. I was busy sh**ting my pants!

This is largely down to the high grade European raw material used for their manufacture and the specialist and precise heat treatment process evolved over several years. You simply can`t buy better! Chain lengths overall are also nominal and subject to manufacturing tolerance as well as being potentially up to a link over- or under-length, relative to the descriptive length assigned. This is because a whole number of links will invariably not be an exact number of metres or half-metres overall, for example.

Sold Secure Motorcycle/Caravan/ATV/Motor Scooter/Bicycle/Commercial Vehicles/Car & Van Gold Police Preferred Specification Manufacturing Proof Force (M.P.F.) is the force to which during manufacture chain or components are subjected. The mean stress at this load is 500n/mm2 (MPA) which is 2.5 times the working load limit.

About

The Series III is designed to carry. Being easily transportable on most motorbikes and scooters, in the 1.5m (6.61kgs) or 2m (8.68kgs) lengths As you can see, a 150cm chain gives you more room to get it through a ground anchor and you’d also be able to reach a fixed post like a lamp post when out and about. 2 metres One of the best tips is to park your bike in a reasonably busy place if you can and ensure it’s always covered. A thief wants a weedy chain on an expensive bike that’s parked out of the way. Your job is to deter them as much as possible and that means slowing them down and pitching their surroundings against them.

Protector chains are top of the tree according to Bennetts Insurance. Bennetts have done a lot of chain testing across many manufacturers and have created their own league table that shows how numerous products compare: The Protector 16mm chain has the following link dimensions (nominal): 132 x 62mm outside; 100 x 30mm inside, throughout its length (an elongated end link is not required). It is constructed from 16mm diameter bar. The smallest rectangular hole it will fit through is about 62 x 34mm, but that would also be a tight fit.Thieves frequently use enormous, heavy duty Irwin Record 42" bolt croppers as their tool of choice, but our Protector 16mm chains have proven impossible to crop even with this powerful tool. In fact, if you keep trying to crop one of these chains, it is likely to be the jaws of the bolt croppers that break!
