Title
Standard Specification for Grade 100 Alloy Steel Chain
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Nov 1, 2007
Scope:
This specification covers Grade 100 heat-treated alloy steel
chain for such applications as slings, lifting assemblies, and load
binding.
NOTE 1—This specification does not cover alloy steel chain for
pocket wheel applications.
This specification is a performance standard for Grade 100 chain
used between -20 and 400°F [-29 and 205°C]. The chain manufacturer
should be contacted for use at temperatures outside this range.
The Grade designation is 1/10 of the minimum breaking strength
in newtons divided by two times the nominal crosssectional area of
the chain in square millimetres.
The values stated in either SI units or in other units shall be
regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system
may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used
independently of the other, without combining values in any
way.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
