When it comes to material handling, not all chains are created equal. ⚖️
Drives® Leaf Chain is manufactured from high-quality alloy steel, with press-fit construction that increases drive-out force and reduces pin rotation. Testing shows our 8×8 lacing delivers 3.25X greater pin retention than standard leaf chain, while our 6×6 lacing achieves 2.4X higher retention. For rail yards, sea ports, cranes and hoists, you can count on this chain.
