Stainless steel chains are used as guardrail chains
Feb 05, 2024
In addition to being used as a hanging chain for hoisting and binding, chains can also play a protective role. That is a guardrail chain, which is not uncommon in our daily lives. Commonly found between wooden stakes and stone piers by the river or on both sides of mountain roads. The main function of guardrail chains is to prevent pedestrians from encountering danger, serving as interception and support. If you carefully observe the fence chains, you will find that most of them are made of stainless steel chains. What is the main reason for using stainless steel chains for guardrail chains? Because stainless steel chains have a good ability to isolate air, they can block the humid air outside the river, thereby achieving anti-corrosion and rust prevention effects. Manganese steel chains have the characteristic of high strength. It is obvious that guardrail chains are not used for lifting, and the high-strength characteristics of manganese steel chains cannot be fully utilized. Using it on guardrail chains is a bit overkill and meaningless. The main feature of explosion-proof copper alloy chains is explosion-proof. Used in flammable and explosive places, even if the guardrail chain is useless, it is meaningless. Stainless steel chains also have strong rust resistance. It is feasible to use stainless steel as guardrail chains, but the cost of stainless steel chains is much higher.
