FAQs

What is the primary use of this signalling chain?

This signalling chain is primarily used for visual marking, delineating spaces, creating temporary boundaries, or for decorative purposes. It is not designed for load-bearing applications.

How durable is the plastic construction?

Can this chain be used outdoors?

Yes, it can be used outdoors for temporary marking. For longevity and to minimize colour fading, it's advisable to protect it from prolonged direct sunlight and harsh weather conditions when possible.

How do I attach the chain?

You can attach the chain by cutting it to size and using ties, clips, S-hooks, or by knotting the ends to suitable anchor points.

What is the total length of the chain?

Is the chain suitable for children's play areas?

It can be used to visually demarcate areas in play spaces, but ensure it is installed safely and out of reach to prevent entanglement, as it is not a toy.

Troubleshooting

Chain links seem weak

This is a plastic signalling chain designed for visual demarcation, not for bearing weight. Ensure you are not applying excessive force or attempting to use it for load-bearing purposes.

Colour fading noticed

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause plastic to fade. For best results and longevity, store the chain indoors when not in use or consider applications with less direct sun exposure.

Difficulty cutting the chain

Use sharp scissors or a utility knife for clean cuts. Ensure the chain is laid flat on a stable surface before cutting.
