This JOHN KING Din series chain is a specific German standard as BS is British. This series is comparable to M and in some sizes identical. The range is not as extensive in terms of higher strengths, but again is available in bush, standard and large roller together with flanged roller. This series is encountered across the whole spectrum of industry but notably in timber products and construction machinery. The Din standard establishes very specific parameters for materials, and construction.
