Metallics DLC2 Chain #2 X 100' Dbl Loop Galv Steel (Box 1)

One box of the DLC2 holds a single 100 foot coil of #2 double loop galvanized steel chain. It is sold by the box, so one box equals the full 100 feet rather than a cut length.

It is galvanized steel, so the zinc coating gives it corrosion resistance for damp interiors, parking structures, and covered exterior runs. For continuously wet or corrosive environments, stainless hardware is the better call.

Double loop (also called coil) chain is the general purpose hanging chain electricians reach for to suspend lighting fixtures, chain hung strip lights and high bays, and to support signs or light loads off structure. The DLC2 is the #2 size in a 100 foot coil, which is enough for a run of fixtures without splicing coils. It is a hanging chain, not a rigging or load rated lifting chain, so do not use it for overhead lifting.

No. The DLC2 is chain only, 100 feet of #2 double loop galvanized steel in a box. S-hooks, quick links, screw eyes, or whatever you are terminating into have to be ordered separately.

No. The DLC2 is specifically the #2 size. Double loop chain is sized by number, with a lower number being a lighter wire and a higher number heavier, so a drawing or fixture spec calling for #1 or #3 chain is not satisfied by DLC2. Order by the number on the spec.

Yes. It ships as a continuous 100 foot coil of galvanized steel double loop chain, so you cut each drop to length in the field with bolt cutters or a cutoff wheel and reuse the balance of the coil on the next fixture. That is why a 100 foot box suits a multi fixture install better than pre cut drops.

There is one configuration, model DLC2, part number DLC2. No finish or length choices to specify, the finish is galvanized and the quantity is a 100 foot box.
