Significance of chain quality in work safety

Abstract

From the point of view of the working environment, the quality of the chain used in lifting devices is very important. An important element in hoists and cranes is the short link chain, which largely affects the safety of the worker operating the crane. The article discusses the basic elements affecting the quality and safety of a chain. This analysis clearly shows that, when choosing a supplier, users of these products should be guided not only by the price but, above all, the certificates and attestations that the manufacturer provides for the product.
