To mark its 25th anniversary which it celebrates this year, FB Chain has a number of limited edition 'gold' professional Chain Wear Gauges to give away to readers of Forkliftaction.com.

Chain wear gauges are used by forklift truck and other materials handling equipment service engineers and technicians to track chain wear at each service. If a chain is shown to have worn excessively it must be replaced.

Designed to overcome the significant problems encountered when attempting to accurately measure a chain for wear, the Chain Wear Gauge's patented design incorporates an easily read scale that enables chain elongation - the most common cause of chain failure - to be measured to within one quarter of one percent.

FB Chain's gauge is widely recognised as the most accurate, reliable and simple to use tool of its kind on the market and is the product recommended by Chas Day of UK-based Consolidated Fork Truck Services (CFTS) - the joint venture between the British Industrial Truck Association (BITA) and the Fork Lift Truck Association (FLTA) .

Chas Day, who is an acknowledged expert on the Thorough Examination of fork lift trucks in the UK, comments: ""Most chain wear gauges only tell you if a chain is worn or not worn. Using the FB chain wear gauge makes it easy to decide if a chain could be dangerously worn out before the next service, leading to the equipment being operated hazardously. Whenever I have a Thorough Examination manager's course I always recommend that the best chain gauge for the engineers to use is the FB gauge. I consider the FB chain gauge to be the industrystandard and, as such, all of the 340 CFTS member companies use the FB Gauge"

FB Chain Wear Gauges have been sold in over 40 countries throughout the world since the instrument was first launched.

Peter Church, managing director of FB Chain Ltd, comments: "Checking a lift truck's chain for wear is essential because excessively worn chains can be lethal. There is no better precision tool on the market for monitoring chain wear than our gauge, which is why, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of our company we are delighted to be able to offer Forkliftaction.com's the chance to win a limited edition 'gold' gauge."

To win a 'gold' FB Chain Wear Gauge simply log on to www.chainweargauge.com/win and follow the simple instructions.

The unique, user friendly, professional chain wear gauge is supplied with a protective sleeve and full operating instructions normally sells for £30.00 plus VAT.
