EVS-EN 818-7:2002

This European Standard specifies the requirements related to safety for hoist chain, Grade T (type T quenched and tempered and types DAT and DT case hardened), for use in serial chain hoists manual and power driven. Type DAT and type DT chains possess surface hardnesses greater than core hardness and are used for power driven chain hoists to offer greater resistance to wear. Type DT chain differs from DAT hoist chain in having higher surface hardness and/or greater case depth to optimise wear resistance.
