Chaintec, a leading supplier of leaf chains for forklifts in the UK, is warning companies to make sure their chains are etched with fully traceable information so they can be assured of where they were manufactured. International quality standards for leaf chains, clevises and sheaves require that chains be marked with the manufacturer’s name or brand, as well a the series and size code. Each chain’s unique batch number should correspond with the Test Certificate supplied when the chain was purchased.
