Hi everyone!
Recently I foundout a leaf chain which consist of central thick links along the center line of the chain (e.g. in the above forklift). What is the function of this central thick link (is it just a spacer or it has a load function) ? What material this link is made (metal/plastic/other)? How this kind of chain is designated (leaf combination writing)? Where can I find an additional information about this kind of chain (manufacturers, internet sites etc.)
Thank you.
