Galle Chain
The Galle Chain are named after their inventor André Galle and are the simplest type of steel link chain. They are used for industrial applications where it is necessary to transmit high tensile force with a small circumferential velocity such as hoisting and lifting.
Applications
- Load chains as counterweight chains
- Lock chains
- Tack chains
- Sluice gates on dams
- Slipways
- Cranes
- Sluice gates
- Elevators
- Escalators
