The most common applications for leaf chain is forklifts, material handling, and lifting applications that require a high strength and heavy duty chain. The standard BL1223 leaf chain that we offer is manufactured using high quality components (pins and plates) that have gone through special manufacturing processes to ensure strength and durability, more so than other leaf chains on the market. This chain has a 2X3 lacing and is supplied as 10ft boxes, reels (25ft - 200ft), and cut to length sections upon request.

For customers needing something a little stronger, we also stock a premium (Premier Series) BL1223 Leaf chain. The primary differences between the standard series and the Premier Series of leaf chains is that the premier series offers published working loads on most sizes, higher precision components, shot peened plates, heat-treated plates and pins, and is the best quality leaf chain that we offer. One common misconception in the industry is that higher tensile strengths mean higher working loads, this is not always true when taking performance factors into consideration.
