SS Straight Link 6mm Dia x 18mm Internal x M

Premium SS Straight Link Chain — 6mm Dia x 18mm Internal (by the metre)

Crafted from robust 316 stainless steel, this SS Straight Link Chain delivers dependable strength and lasting corrosion resistance, making it a pragmatic choice for both indoor and outdoor projects. Featuring 6mm diameter links with an expansive 18mm internal clearance, this chain is designed to handle substantial loads while remaining flexible enough to work with a variety of connectors and fittings.

Designed for non-lifting applications, this chain pairs practicality with longevity. It’s not certified for lifting, but with a break load of 1150 kg, it offers serious performance for securing, display, and structural accents. The product notes recommend that users determine the appropriate safety factor themselves (roughly 25% of the breaking load as a reference), ensuring you tailor the setup to your specific use case.

Why choose this chain?

• 316 stainless steel construction for excellent corrosion resistance, ideal for coastal, humid, or outdoor environments.
• 6mm diameter links with 18mm internal clearance provide a sturdy, open link design that accommodates larger connectors and easier threading of hooks, wires, or clamps.
• Sold by the metre — order exactly what you need for your project, no guesswork or wasted length.
• Clear safety considerations and breaking load information empower informed decisions for non-lifting uses.

Ideal use cases

• Non-lifting rigging for display setups, banners, and signage where a strong, weather-resistant chain is required.
• Decorative or architectural installations such as garden features, lighting suspensions, or art displays where appearance and longevity matter.
• Securing outdoor equipment, fencing accessories, or lightweight agricultural setups where durability matters but lifting certification isn’t necessary.
• DIY projects that benefit from a high-quality, corrosion-resistant chain with ample internal space for easy assembly.

Practical tips for best results

• Pair with appropriate non-slip connectors (eye bolts, S-hooks, or swivels) compatible with 6mm links and 18mm internal clearance.
• Avoid sharp bends or kinks that can create stress concentrations—maintain gentle radii at every bend or junction.
• After exposure to saltwater or harsh outdoor conditions, rinse with fresh water and dry to preserve the chain’s finish; a light coats of lubricant can help with movement in dry environments.
• Measure your required length by the metre and order accordingly; plan for extra length to accommodate securing points and fittings.
