Chain Slings from Gunnebo Industries

Gunnebo Industries is a trusted global manufacturer of chain slings and lifting components, known for their quality, traceability and compliance with international safety standards. Manufactured in Sweden and Norway, Gunnebo Grade 80 and Grade 100 alloy chain slings are proof-tested to twice their Working Load Limit (WLL) and marked for full traceability to the raw material source.

Every Gunnebo sling assembly, whether single leg, multi leg or shortened with grab hooks, is engineered using high-strength quenched and tempered components, including master links, coupling links and hooks. With dimensional precision and robust fatigue resistance, Gunnebo chain slings are ideal for heavy-duty lifting, material handling and rigging across demanding industries.

Various products available in this category are mentioned below.

1. Chain 

Gunnebo lifting chains are available in Grade 80 and Grade 100 alloy steel, engineered for strength, durability and wear resistance. They are proof-tested to twice their Working Load Limit (WLL) and individually marked for traceability back to the raw material batch. These chains are ideal for heavy-duty lifting, slinging and material handling.

2. Master Links
Gunnebo’s master links are essential for multi-leg sling assemblies and crane hook interfaces. All links are manufactured from quenched and tempered alloy steel and offer high load-bearing capacity with dimensional accuracy.

• Master Links – Standard forged links for 1-leg or 2-leg sling assemblies.
  

• Master Links with Sublinks (MT) – Ideal for 3-leg or 4-leg slings; features integrated sublinks for flexible rigging.
  

• Master Grab MG GRABIQ – Combines a master link with an integrated shortening function for compact chain slings.
  

• Master Grab MGD GRABIQ – Dual-purpose master link with additional lifting flexibility and chain shortening.
  

• Master Link MF with Engineered Flat – Provides stable alignment on crane hooks and better load distribution due to the flat section.

3. Grab Hooks
These hooks are designed for chain length adjustment and secure load engagement without slipping or disengagement. Their robust construction ensures long-term reliability in harsh environments.

• C-Grab CG – A compact grab hook for quick chain shortening.
  

• C-Grab Duo CGD – Features dual hook points for additional stability and multiple chain configurations.
  

• C-LOK CL – A lockable grab hook with high safety standards; resists accidental unhooking during lifting.
  

• Coupling Link G – Used to connect chain segments or integrate lifting accessories with maximum security.

4. Hooks
Gunnebo lifting hooks are manufactured for versatility, safety and ease of use in general and specialized lifting tasks.

• Sling Hook EKN / EGKN – EKN includes a safety latch; EGKN is latch-free. Both are optimized for standard chain sling ends.
  

• Safety Hook GBK / BK – Auto-locking safety hooks that secure the load and prevent accidental disengagement.
  

• Foundry Hook OKE – Extra-wide hook opening designed for engaging large or awkward lifting points, especially in foundry environments.

5. Lifting Points
Gunnebo lifting points provide 360° rotation and load alignment flexibility. Engineered for bolted or welded installation, they enhance safety in angular or dynamic load lifting.

• De-Centered Lifting Point (DLP) – Allows off-center lifting with stable alignment.
  

• Ball-Bearing Lifting Point (BLP) – Smooth 360° rotation under load with an internal bearing mechanism.
  

• Rotating Lifting Point (RLP) – A heavy-duty lifting point designed to rotate 360° and pivot 180°, aligning safely with the load direction. Suitable for angular and dynamic lifts.

• Rotating Eye Lifting Point (RELP) – Swivel-type eye bolts for multi-directional load alignment and rotation.
  

• LPE Lifting Point (LPE) – A rotating eye lifting point with 360° rotation and ball bearings for smooth rotation under load. Its patented bail design prevents shock loading risk when side loaded.
