The AWI Stainless Steel Master Link is made from high-grade stainless steel and yields a result that outshines the rest. This stainless master link is electrically welded for a clean finish, stamped and suitable for both I- and II-legged chains and wire rope slings (similar to DIN 3088- 1989).
The master link may also be used in VWI four-legged assemblies and as an end link. Its dimensions are similar to DIN 5688-1 and it is tested at 100 % of its load capacity. A particular bonus is the higher resistance to acids and caustics compared to the standard loading rings G8, G10 and G12. The stamp makes the master link clearly identifiable.
The master link also bears the CE mark. The AWI Master link is particularly suited for use in water and wastewater applications. It can also be used in connection with chemicals and food products; however, restrictions will apply.
