4. Q. How do I know if my chain is "304" or "316"? A. Our Type 316 chain is embossed "316" every few links. Type 304 is generally plain but may be embossed "304" at the manufacturer's option.
5. Q. Which grade should I order? 304 or 316"? A. The composition of Type 316 stainless allows it to withstand more chemicals than 304, including a salt water marine environment. Use 316 whenever the environment is unknown, for instance in a sewage treatment facility. If being used indoors or outdoors, inland around fresh water or rain, Type 304 is generally sufficient.
6. Q. What is Type 316L chain? A. The "L" stands for Low carbon which makes stainless easier to weld. If you are not welding the chain to something, use the cheaper Type 316. If you need to weld it, then use our US or French made stainless windlass chain.
7. Q. Can I return this chain for refund for any reason? A. All Stainless Chain is custom cut to your specifications and NOT RETURNABLE. Be sure of your length and refer to our dimensions chart and our actual size pictures pages before ordering.
