Product Information
Full details
This SecureFix Direct Clevis Egg Link is designed for professionals in construction, rigging, and industrial lifting who require a robust connection for 10mm chain in lifting applications. Its key benefit is providing a secure and compliant connection point with a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 3.15 Ton, manufactured to stringent BS EN 1677 standards. A potential caveat is the need to ensure chain size and SWL are correctly matched for safe operation. Key features include its Grade 80 construction, suitability for reevable, end, or collar chain applications, and inclusion of a test certificate.

FAQs
What does 'Grade 80' mean?
Grade 80 refers to a specific standard for alloy steel chains and components used in overhead lifting. It indicates a higher tensile strength and working load limit compared to lower grades.
What is the Safe Working Load (SWL) for this link?
The Safe Working Load for this Clevis Egg Link is 3.15 Ton (3150 kg).
Can I use this link with a chain smaller or larger than 10mm?
No, this link is specifically designed and rated for 10mm chain. Using it with other chain sizes can compromise safety and is not recommended.
What is the material safety factor of 4:1?
A material safety factor of 4:1 means the link's breaking strength is at least four times its Safe Working Load. This provides an essential safety margin.
How do I get the test certificate?
The test certificate will be supplied to you via email after purchase.
What are the main dimensions of the link?
Key dimensions include A=151mm, B=20mm, C=97mm, D=19mm, E=105.5mm, F=170mm, G=12mm, H=13mm, and I=13mm.
What happens if I exceed the Safe Working Load?
Exceeding the Safe Working Load can lead to catastrophic failure of the link, resulting in dropped loads, serious injury, or death. Always operate within the rated SWL.
Troubleshooting
Clevis pin difficult to insert or remove
Check for debris or damage in the clevis eye or on the pin. Ensure you are using the correct size pin and that no foreign objects are obstructing the mechanism.
Link shows signs of deformation
Immediately remove the link from service. Deformation indicates the link has been overloaded or subjected to excessive stress. Contact the manufacturer for replacement guidance.
Rust or corrosion visible on the surface
Clean the affected area with a wire brush. If corrosion is deep or compromises the material integrity, the link should be replaced.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Meets stringent BS EN 1677 safety standards.
- High Safe Working Load (SWL) of 3.15 Ton for significant lifting capacity.
- Durable Grade 80 construction ensures longevity and reliability.
- Versatile use as a reevable, end, or collar chain link.
- Includes a test certificate for compliance verification.
Cons
- Requires careful matching with the correct chain size (10mm).
- Overloading beyond the SWL is dangerous and voids safety.
- Requires proper inspection and maintenance like all lifting gear.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the Clevis Egg Link is compatible with your 10mm lifting chain. The clevis pin should be securely fastened according to standard rigging practices to prevent accidental opening. Always verify that the combined SWL of the lifting assembly (including chain, links, and master links) is not exceeded.
Compatibility: This link is designed for use with 10mm chain. It is compatible with other BS EN 1677 compliant lifting components. Ensure all connected components share a similar quality and safety standard.
Care: Regularly inspect the link for signs of wear, damage, deformation, or corrosion. Clean the link with a wire brush to remove dirt and debris. Do not use harsh chemicals for cleaning. Store in a dry environment. Any damaged or excessively worn links should be removed from service immediately.
