MW16 5/8" ENLARGED MASTERLINK GR100

Product Description

Product Description: The Pewag MW16 is a Grade 100 enlarged master link designed for use as the top connection component in overhead chain sling assemblies requiring a larger link opening than standard master links of the same chain size. Constructed from high-tensile alloy steel and rated to Grade 100 standards, the MW16 provides a high-strength, reliable connection point that accommodates a wider range of crane hooks and lifting hardware, offering greater flexibility in rigging configurations involving 5/8" Grade 100 chain.

The MW16 is compatible with 5/8" Grade 100 chain and integrates into the Pewag chain sling system as the primary top fitting in single and multi-leg sling configurations. The enlarged link dimensions ensure compatibility with larger crane hook throats commonly encountered in medium to heavy industrial lifting operations, reducing the need to upsize the chain assembly solely to achieve hook compatibility. The Grade 100 alloy steel construction delivers the working load limit and dimensional integrity required for consistent, dependable performance in demanding lifting environments.

This master link is suited for use in chain slings, multi-leg lifting assemblies, and general industrial rigging in fabrication, construction, steel processing, and material handling environments. As with all overhead lifting hardware, the MW16 must be inspected before each use for signs of wear, elongation, deformation, cracking, or corrosion, and must be operated within its rated working load limit in full compliance with applicable lifting standards and site safety requirements.
