Lifting chains are vital for a variety of heavy-duty lifting, rigging, and securing tasks across a wide range of industries. Essential for applications in construction, marine, and industrial and manufacturing settings, our lifting chains are known for their high load-bearing capacity, durability, and reliability.
Whether lifting materials on a construction site, handling cargo in the marine industry, or securing loads in manufacturing, industrial lifting chains provide the strength and versatility required for safe and efficient operations.
Types of Lifting Chains Here at UK Lifting Store
Grade 80 lifting chains:
These heavy-duty lifting chains are made from high-strength steel, offering exceptional performance in lifting and rigging applications. Our range of grade 80 lifting chains, including our Four Leg Chain Sling, are compliant with industry standards and designed for lifting in both general and heavy-duty applications.
Grade 100 lifting chains:
Grade 100 lifting chains provide an even higher load capacity than Grade 80, with reduced weight. This makes them ideal for heavy-duty lifting chains tasks where both strength and weight reduction are critical. They also provide an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, making them suitable for demanding lifting operations in construction and industrial environments.
Lashing chains and load binders:
For securing loads in transit, lashing chains and load binders are essential. These lifting accessories ensure that cargo is safely secured, preventing slippage during transportation. They are a great addition to your lifting chain setup, ensuring safe and efficient load handling.
Chain sling accessories:
Our range of chain sling accessories is designed to complete your lifting operations. These accessories work to enhance the versatility and safety of your lifting chains, allowing for customised solutions for any lifting task.

Lifting Chains FAQs
What are lifting chains used for?
Lifting chains are used in industrial, construction, and marine settings for securing and lifting heavy loads. Thanks to their robust construction, our heavy-duty lifting chains are capable of handling even the most demanding lifting tasks.
What is the difference between Grade 80 and Grade 100 lifting chains?
Grade 100 lifting chains provide a higher strength-to-weight ratio compared to Grade 80 lifting chains, making them better suited for heavy-duty lifting tasks where both strength and reduced weight are crucial.
Are stainless steel chains suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, stainless steel chains are corrosion-resistant. This makes them perfect for outdoor and marine applications, which often experience exposure to moisture and harsh environments. Get in touch with our team to learn more about applications for our heavy duty industrial lifting chains.
