Cargo securing chains are heavy-duty chains used to fasten and stabilize marine cargo during transport. They are designed to withstand harsh maritime conditions and prevent load shifting. These chains are essential for ensuring safety and compliance with maritime regulations.

Size: 6mm to 26mm diameter

Grade: Grade 30, Grade 43, Grade 70, Grade 80, Grade 100

Viscosity: Not applicable (chains are solid metal)

Buoyancy: Negative (sinks in water due to high-density material)

Material: Carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel (AISI 316 for marine use)

Working Load Limit (WLL): Varies by grade and size (e.g., 1,000 kg to 20,000 kg)

Break Strength: 2x to 4x WLL depending on grade

Surface Treatment: Galvanized, painted, or self-colored (bare metal)

Corrosion Resistance: High (especially for stainless steel and galvanized chains)

Temperature Range: -40°C to +200°C (varies by material)

Certifications: ISO 9001, DNV, ABS, Lloyd’s Register

Cargo Securing Chains and Marine Cargo Equipment typically comply with international maritime standards such as ISO 3874, IMO MSC.1/Circ.1352, and CSS Code. Always verify with the manufacturer for specific certifications.
