SY Aqua Chain

Developed to fill the void between plated, carbon steel chains & stainless steel chains, SY Aqua Chain is THE ONLY 100% TRUE Aqua Chain.

Utilising an exclusive treatment process, SY Aqua Chain gives you all the strength, wear resistance, load capacities & life of regular chains with exceptional corrosion resistance. SY Chain’s Aqua Treatment process IS NOT a plating onto the surface of the chain, it is a special chemical treatment which treats into the surface of the chain components before assembly. Plates, Pins, Bushes, & Rollers are all treated, resulting in a corrosion-resistant chain that stands the test of time & unlike plated styles of chain, doesn’t begin to rust the instant that surface plating is cracked or worn away. With SY Aqua Chain, you literally have to wear past the surface of the chain components before exposing the untreated steel, which gives you outstanding corrosion resistance.
