Leaf Chains

Main Types of Leaf Chains

We structure our offer of leaf lifting chains by manufacturer. Our key suppliers are:

• Donghua

  Donghua is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of leaf and plate lifting chains. These chains are used in most lifting applications – from forklifts, lifting platforms and container handlers to offshore platforms and various other industrial operations.

  Many leading manufacturers of handling equipment use Donghua chains as standard components.

  Donghua leaf chains are available in various designs – including AL, LL and FFC types. Versions with special guides for reduced vibration and noise are also available. On request, the chains can be customized with accessories, special pins, end fittings or other modifications to meet specific load and operating requirements.

• ČZ

  For smaller quantity orders of leaf chains, the range from Czech manufacturer ČZ is a suitable choice. The chains are more readily available and are generally not subject to minimum production quantities.

  ČZ also offers accessories for leaf chains – including end plates, cotter pins and holders.
