The EN 818-7 lifting chain is manufactured strictly in accordance with the European EN 818-7 standard, pairing precision-welded link construction with high-strength steel to give the unit a dependable load path for lifting service. 

Available with hot-dip zinc, dacromet, metal-coated, black, oiled, and various other surface treatments, it's built for lifting and hoisting applications where reliable strength and corrosion resistance are essential.

Safety is engineered in: the chain is designed with a 4-fold safety factor and a proof load of 2.5 times the working load limit, giving you consistent, verifiable performance under rated loads. It shares its production line and surface treatment 

options with our [related model, e.g., DIN 766 chain], but follows the EN 818-7 specification — see the comparison below to confirm which fits your application.

Why Choose a Trolley-Mounted Electric Chain Hoist?

Not every lifting job needs a special alloy or an oversized chain. Where a chain is called on to lift, secure, and rig loads at a rated capacity — day in, day out — a dependable EN 818-7 lifting chain does the job with strength you can verify. The EN 818-7 is built for exactly that: dependable, rated lifting with a 4-fold safety factor and a proof load of 2.5 times the working load limit.

Which EN 818-7 chain fits your job? IIf your work runs outdoors or in harsh, corrosive environments, the hot-dip zinc or dacromet finish delivers long-term protection. If you need a clean, economical surface for indoor general service, the black, oiled, or metal-coated finish is the practical choice. If your loads are heavy, step up to larger sizes up to 22 × 66 mm with a working load limit of 15.3 t — see the spec table below to match the right chain to your application.
