Collection: Industrial Chain

Ashley Chains is a specialist industrial chain supplier with over 90 years of experience serving engineering, manufacturing, construction, agriculture, marine, and logistics industries across the UK. This collection brings together 93 products covering the full range of heavy duty chain and industrial chain accessories we stock - from standard welded steel through to Grade 316 stainless steel and hot galvanised options built to withstand the harshest working conditions.

Industrial Chain for Every Application

Industrial chains are a different category from general-purpose or decorative chain. The applications they serve - securing heavy loads, anchoring equipment, barrier and demarcation work, agricultural use, and structural rigging - demand consistent link dimensions, verified tensile strength, and finishes that hold up under repeated stress and exposure. Every product in this collection has been selected with those demands in mind.

Our heavy duty industrial chain range includes hot galvanised welded steel chain for outdoor and agricultural environments where corrosion resistance under sustained exposure is critical; unfinished steel chain where further treatment or coating is planned; stainless steel Grade 316 welded chain for marine, chemical, and food-grade applications; and black epoxy coated options where a durable surface finish is required alongside load-bearing performance.

For applications where link pitch consistency matters - such as windlass systems, conveying, or calibrated lifting - our separate calibrated chain range sits alongside this collection and covers DIN 766 and ISO 4565 specifications.

Accessories Matched to the Chain

A heavy chain is only as good as the fittings it's connected with. That's why we stock a full set of compatible industrial chain accessories alongside every product - zinc plated and black epoxy quick links, dee shackles, carbine hooks, rings and hooks on plate, and ess hooks - all rated to complement the working loads of the chains they're used with. Sourcing chain and fittings from the same industrial chain supplier removes the guesswork on compatibility and means your setup is consistent from end to end.

Why Ashley Chains for Heavy Duty Chain

When industries need chains heavy duty enough to handle real working conditions, they need a supplier with stock depth, technical knowledge, and reliable lead times. As part of the English Chain group - trading since 1923 - we hold large stocks across the full range and offer next working-day delivery on most items. Our in-house technical team can advise on the correct grade, gauge, and finish for your specific application, whether you're sourcing for a one-off project or looking for an ongoing supply arrangement.
