Grade 100 chain is a newer product and is becoming increasingly popular as a placement for grade 80 chain. The chain provides about 25% higher work load limits than grade 80 chain.

However, because the chain is generally equipped with a special type of clevis grab hook, grade 100 tie down chain is not approved for overhead lifting.
