Lift applications demand the frequent transmission of high lifting power at relatively low speeds. Leaf chains are subjected to constant flexure and frequent shock loads. These demands to which leaf chains are subjected require a tension linkage with maximum resistance to fatigue and wear. Morse® leaf chains are specifically designed to answer this need. Leaf chain is available with various plate lacing construction in 1/2 to 2 in pitch. The assembly is constructed from link plates and riveted pins.

- Link plate are parallel punched and shot peened as an effective means of extending wear life and improving cracking resistance
- Link plates are pierced and shaved to improve chain performance
- The manufacturing process uses alloy steel to manufacture pins, which are case hardened and precision ground for optimum wear life
- Leaf chain is pre-stressed and inspected to ensure quality and uniformity
- Unmatched quality and performance
- The BL number is an industry standard designation used to determine the pitch and lacing configuration of leaf chain on the mast
- Size BL4 chain
