ASTM A466 covers weldless chain. Weldless chain is typically used in applications that require light and flexible chain. The chain materials included in this test are steel, brass, or bronze. For each chain, the breaking force must meet the minimum force requirements for the specific dimension. The strength requirement must be met.
Recommended Test Machine
Force range of 5 kN to 600 kN (1,125 lbf to 135,000 lbf)
Adjustable test space
The most popular choice for static tension and compression tests
These dual column testers are available in both tabletop and floor standing models
Force range of 300 kN to 2,000 kN (67,500 lbf to 450,000 lbf)
The best choice for performing static tension and/or compression applications when force capacities of 300 kN (67,000 lbf) or more are needed
Includes its own grips
