When to use a stainless steel chain

The choice of a stainless steel chain over the conventional low-carbon steel chain depends on the use for which it is intended. It is used when:

  • the final field of application is particular (food, agriculture, urban furnishing, plant engineering, nautical, etc.)
  • the atmospheric agents to which the chain is subjected, which cause its degradation and corrosion, are very aggressive (rain, salinity, humidity, etc.)
  • it is necessary to extend the life of the chain over time to avoid costs for its replacement

Our catalogue offer includes different types of stainless steel chains in both AISI 304 and AISI 316.

We can supply it in bundles or directly in pieces of the desired length.
