New sizes of Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain

Green Pin Tycan® – the fibre chain that has all the performance and flexibility of steel chain but is eight times lighter than steel – takes the next step in the ‘chain of evolution’. Today Green Pin® introduces three new sizes of Green Pin Tycan® Lifting Chain and accompanying grade 10 steel components. A choice of four sizes of lifting chain with matching fittings allows you to manufacture a complete one-leg chain assembly with a Working Load Limit of 2.6 tons, 4 tons, 5 tons or 6.8 tons. In a four-leg configuration the assembly can reach a Working Load Limit of up to 14.2 ton. The new chain fittings are specially developed for use with Green Pin Tycan® and include a connecting link, a shortening hook and a sling hook. The clevis of the hook and the bearing surface of the connecting link are designed to fit perfectly with the link of a Green Pin Tycan® chain so as to guarantee a safe assembly of the chain and its fittings.
