Chain Hooks

The last article will be about how chain hooks can be made of steel or stainless steel or metal. Basically, all chain hooks are pure castings. This means that stainless steel chain hooks can be made by the wax-lost process. This process is quite cheap in the production of chain hooks. Let's start with the manufacturing process of chain hooks. To make a chain hook, a positive pattern of hard wax must always be made first. For this purpose, the blank is usually printed out of wax using a 3D printer. The chain hook is now made in wax. As many of these hard wax chain hooks are made as real chain hooks are needed later. All these wax chain hooks are now put into a mud bath. After dipping in the mud bath, the chain hooks are taken out again. Now all parts are put into the kiln. Here, the mud is now firmly burned at a high temperature and the hard wax can evaporate in the process. During this evaporation process, the blank of the chain hook is exposed. Subsequently, the stainless steel can be heated to cast the shape of the chain hook. Once the casting process of the chain hook is cast, the mold can be destroyed after cooling. Now the finished stainless steel blank comes out as the chain hook. Subsequently, the chain hook only needs to be polished to a high gloss and can be sold to you.
