Metallics JC10T – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much chain comes in the Metallics JC10T pail?
The JC10T is a 250 foot coil of #10 jack chain in galvanized steel, packed one coil to a pail. The pail dispenses the chain as you pull it, so it stays untangled on a suspended lighting or signage run without having to flake out a loose coil on the floor.
2) Is jack chain like the Metallics JC10T suitable for hanging light fixtures?
Jack chain is the light duty single loop chain electricians use to suspend fluorescent strips, shop lights, hanging signage and similar light loads. The JC10T is #10 galvanized steel, which is the common size for that work. It is not a load rated lifting chain, so anything structural or overhead rigging calls for a rated alloy chain instead.
3) Do I need anything else to hang a fixture with this chain?
Yes. The JC10T pail is chain only, 250 feet of it. You still supply your own ceiling anchors or toggles, S-hooks or quick links to connect the chain to the fixture, and any separate support wire or strain relief the fixture instructions call for. Jack chain is opened and closed with pliers, so no special tool is needed to break it to length.
4) Will galvanized jack chain hold up in a damp or unheated space?
The zinc coating on the JC10T gives it reasonable corrosion resistance for unheated warehouses, parking structures and covered exterior areas. For constant wet, coastal or chemical exposure, stainless chain is the better call.
5) Is a 250 foot pail of jack chain worth it for a small property maintenance shop?
For a shop replacing fixture hangers on an ongoing basis, the pail form is the practical buy: one pail covers dozens of drops and you cut what each job needs instead of ordering short lengths repeatedly. For a single fixture, it is far more chain than the job requires.
