Chain Accessories
Cromox chain accessories complete the stainless steel chain assembly, shorteners, tensioners, connectors, and end fittings that work with Cromox stainless chain in marine, food processing, pharmaceutical, and chemical environments. When the chain is stainless, the accessories need to be stainless too. Mixed-metal assemblies in corrosive environments create galvanic corrosion at the contact points and leave you with a carbon fitting failing on a stainless chain.

Cromox Stainless Chain Accessories
Chain accessories are the hardware that completes a chain assembly beyond the chain itself. They include chain shortening clutches and grab hooks for length adjustment, connecting links for joining chain sections or terminating chain legs, tensioning hardware, and end fittings. In alloy steel chain rigging, these components are typically alloy steel or carbon steel to match the chain.
In stainless steel chain assemblies, accessories need to match. Cromox manufactures its chain accessories from stainless steel so the entire assembly, chain, connecting links, hooks, and shorteners, is corrosion-resistant throughout. This matters in food processing plants, pharmaceutical operations, marine environments, and chemical facilities where mixing stainless chain with carbon accessory components would introduce a corrosion failure point into an otherwise stainless assembly.
Cromox chain accessories are manufactured by the pewag Group in Austria and meet EN standards for the applicable component type.

Cromox chain accessories are stainless steel components that complete a chain lifting assembly, chain shortening clutches, grab hooks, connecting hardware, and tensioning accessories. They are manufactured by the pewag Group in Austria for use in corrosion-sensitive environments alongside Cromox stainless chain.
Mixing stainless chain with carbon or alloy steel accessories in a corrosive environment creates a galvanic corrosion risk at contact points. Stainless accessories keep the full assembly corrosion-resistant throughout. In food, marine, pharma, and chemical applications, an all-stainless assembly is the correct approach.
