Inspection and Removal from Service Criteria
Inspect individual Chain Links thoroughly before each use for
abrasion, tears, cuts or other damage which might affect the
performance of Green Pin Tycan
®
Lifting Chain.
The pictures show defined areas of
Green Pin Tycan
®
Chain Link, such
as the Link Leg and Interface. Which
allows for different amounts of wear
and tear:
• Zero tolerance for damage allowed
in Link Bearing Point.
• No folding or spreading out of
layers allowed in Link Bearing
Point.
Connecting Green Pin Tycan
®
Lifting Chain directly into hooks
(components) where the width/clevis is more than required minimum
clevis width is not acceptable. Doing so can cause the layers to
spread apart, which in the utmost consequence could have a negative
effect on the strength of the chain. The only exception is when it
is not an open end-link and both load bearing-points of the link is
under tension from the adjacent chain links. An example of this is the
anchored basket hitch showed in this manual.
