Re: Maggi Chains vs ACCO Chain

My local chain supplier doesn't sell g40 anchor chain. They sell industrial chain for lifting and securing which doesn't have the same length links. I wish they did supply it, trust me. It's going to...

Re: Maggi Chains vs ACCO Chain

It's my understanding that when you buy g70 galvanized chain you have already lost that little bit of strength. If you regalvanize, and the galvanize temp is the same, it won't hurt the temper of the...
