FAQs

What is the primary advantage of 316 grade stainless steel?

316 grade stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides found in saltwater and industrial chemicals, making it ideal for marine and harsh environments.

What is the breaking load of this 12MM quick link?

The breaking load for the 12MM Delta Quick Link is 4600KG.

Can this quick link be used for lifting heavy objects?

While it has a high breaking load, it is not certified as a lifting component unless specified. It is primarily designed for connecting and securing, not for certified overhead lifting operations without further engineering assessment.

How often should I inspect the quick link?

It is recommended to inspect the quick link before each use, especially if it is used in critical applications or exposed to harsh conditions. A thorough inspection should be performed periodically, such as monthly or quarterly, depending on usage frequency and environment.

What does 'Delta Link' refer to?

Delta Link refers to the triangular or delta shape of the link, which often provides a strong and stable connection point.

Is this quick link suitable for permanent outdoor installation?

What other sizes are available?

Troubleshooting

Screw gate is difficult to turn or stiff.

Clean the gate threads with fresh water and a soft brush. Apply a small amount of marine-grade lubricant to the threads if necessary. Ensure no dirt or debris is lodged in the threads.

Quick link appears rusted or corroded.

Although made of 316 stainless steel, prolonged exposure to certain environments can cause surface discoloration. Clean thoroughly with fresh water. If deep pitting is observed, the link should be inspected by a qualified professional or replaced.

Quick link does not close fully.

Check for obstructions in the gate track or threads. Ensure the linked items are not preventing full closure. If the gate is damaged, replace the quick link immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: To use the quick link, simply open the screw gate by unscrewing it. Pass the gate through the eye of the chain, rope, or equipment you wish to connect. Then, close the gate by screwing it back down firmly until it is secure. Ensure the gate is fully closed and tightened before applying load.

Compatibility: This 12MM quick link is designed to connect to ropes, chains, or straps with compatible eyelet sizes. Always ensure that the items being connected can safely handle the load capacity of the quick link. It is compatible with other 316-grade stainless steel fittings for maximum corrosion resistance.

Care: To maintain the longevity and performance of your quick link, regular inspection is recommended. Clean the quick link with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or harsh chemicals. Periodically check the screw gate for smooth operation and ensure there is no debris preventing it from closing fully. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Store in a dry place when not in use.
