The Grade 100 Master Link Assembly with Integrated Shortening Hooks (MAQ Type) is an all-in-one top rigging component designed specifically for 3-leg and 4-leg chain slings.
*Integrated hooks simplify 4-leg sling assembly
| Method | Parts Required | Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Integrated (MAQ) (This Product) |
1 Component (MAQ Assembly Only) |
Efficient. Hooks are built-in. Lighter, shorter vertical length, and faster to assemble. |
| Traditional Build (Separate Parts) |
9+ Components (1 Master Link + 4 Connectors + 4 Grab Hooks) |
Modular. Allows replacing individual parts, but heavy, bulky, and time-consuming to assemble. |

Grade 100 Sling Components are high-strength alloy steel lifting accessories designed for heavy-duty lifting applications. Compared with Grade 80, Grade 100 offers higher working load limits (WLL) at the same size, or the same WLL with a smaller, lighter component.
Used to connect the sling to the crane hook.
End fittings for attaching loads.
Used to join chain or components.
For complex rigging scenarios.
