The Altrad Generation Heavy Duty Hanging Chain is a purpose-built suspension chain for securing hydraulic support systems, including Raptor Brace Systems and Manhole Braces, to trench sheets during excavation work. At 2000mm in length and 4kg in weight, the chain gives your team an adjustable, reliable method for positioning shoring equipment at the correct height within the trench.
The chain attaches to trench sheets and allows hydraulic bracing systems to be hung at variable heights, adapting to the depth and configuration of each excavation. This adjustability is particularly useful in deep trench operations where precise vertical positioning of shoring equipment is critical for maintaining safe working conditions.
Heavy Duty Hanging Chains are available for hire and purchase from Altrad Generation branches across the UK and Ireland.
