DIN 763

What is a DIN 766 Chain?

A DIN 766 chain is a type of welded chain that adheres to the specifications outlined in the German standard DIN 766. This standard provides detailed guidelines for the manufacturing, dimensions, and quality of these chains, ensuring consistency and reliability in their performance. DIN 766 chains are commonly used in various industrial applications due to their strength, durability, and versatility.

DIN 766 Chains: A Robust and Reliable Solution

Key Characteristics of DIN 766 Chains:

• Welded Construction: We weld the chain links together, providing a strong and secure connection.
• Material: We typically manufacture DIN 766 chains from high-quality carbon steel or stainless steel, depending on the specific application and required corrosion resistance.
• Dimensions: We adhere to DIN 766 standards when determining the dimensions of the chain, such as link diameter and length, ensuring compatibility with other components.

Applications: DIN 766 chains find widespread use in a variety of applications.

• • Anchoring and mooring
  • Lifting and hoisting
  • Securing loads
  • Industrial machinery
  • Construction
• Benefits:
  • High strength and durability
  • Corrosion resistance (especially for stainless steel versions)
  • Versatility
  • Cost-effective
  • Widely available

Applications of DIN 766 Chains:

• Marine industry: Used for anchoring, mooring, and securing equipment on ships and boats.
• Construction: Used for temporary structures, securing loads, and lifting heavy objects.
• Industrial machinery: Used in conveyor systems, lifting equipment, and other industrial applications.

Choosing the Right DIN 766 Chain:

When selecting a DIN 766 chain, consider the following factors:

• Working load limit (WLL): Ensure the chain’s WLL is sufficient for the intended application.
• Material: Choose the appropriate material based on the operating environment and required corrosion resistance.
• Link size: Select the link size that matches the application’s requirements.
• Grade: Consider the chain’s grade, which indicates its strength and quality.

Conclusion

DIN 766 chains are a reliable and versatile component used in numerous industrial applications. By understanding their characteristics and applications, you can select the right chain for your specific needs.
