Top link for 4-way GR80


Double master links, also referred to as triple rings or top distribution links, are used in chain sling assemblies that incorporate more than two chain legs. These components are specifically designed to safely connect multiple chain lengths, making them indispensable for complex lifting configurations.


Double top links consist of several interconnected oval rings. This configuration allows multiple chain legs to be connected to a single lifting point. According to applicable regulations, when three chain legs are connected within one ring, one chain leg must always be longer than the others. For this reason, whenever more than two chain legs are required, the use of a split or distribution ring is mandatory to ensure correct load distribution and to prevent unsafe loading conditions.


As with single master links, triple rings often feature a flat section in the forging. This flat area allows for secure and correct connection of special coupling components, such as omega shackles.


Safety guidelines for using double master links

  • Ensure that the oval ring can move freely within the crane hook to avoid abnormal or unintended stress on the master link.

  • Always take into account the specific requirements for connecting multiple chain legs and use the appropriate links and rings for the application.

  • Correct selection and installation of the master link are essential to guarantee safe lifting operations.


Double master links are critical components in multi-leg chain sling systems. When selected correctly and used in accordance with safety guidelines, they contribute to reliable load handling and a safe working environment.
