Chains

Colour, Thickness and Packaging

Red-white chain generally means closure and no entry; yellow-black signals caution and hazard. The 8 mm thickness is the common balance between being light enough to handle and heavy enough to read clearly.

The 100 metre box lowers the cost per metre for site-wide use and for teams that deploy chain constantly. Compared with metal chain, plastic does not rust, weighs less and is far less likely to damage a vehicle surface it touches.

• Plastic chain 8 mm red-white — closure and no entry
• Plastic chain 8 mm yellow-black — caution and hazard line
• 100 metre box — economical packaging for site-wide use
• Rust-free and light; easier to handle than metal chain
• Used with posts, cones and delineator adapters

Where It Is Used

Typical uses are reserving parking bays, temporary closures during maintenance and cleaning, zone separation inside warehouses and factories, and queue or flow order at events. Strung between posts or cones, the chain forms a continuous line.

Chain is a visual boundary and does not stand in for a physical barrier where vehicles move. Where access must be permanently blocked, back it with lockable bollards, wheel stops or barriers.
