inside dimensions.

The Green Pin DNV Master Link and Master Link Assembly are grade 8 master links and are perfect

The Green Pin Heavy Duty Master Link is a grade 8 master link for heavy-duty applications. The consistent
Charpy V value of at least 42 J at -20 °C and 27 J at -40 °C throughout the entire master link, makes it
compliant with offshore certification requirements. The master links are fully forged as a single piece.
Wire rope master links are generally marked with:
• manufacturer’s symbol - e.g. GP
• size in mm and/ or inch - e.g. 25 and/or 1”
• traceability code - e.g. HA
• steel grade (specific products) - e.g. 8 or 10
• item code (specific products) - e.g. UMSW

As prescribed by the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC our hooks, master links and connecting links are
supplied with a CE Declaration of Incorporation (CE IIB), stating the products are in compliance with the
requirements of the machinery directive. These products do not have a CE marking, since CE markings
are only to be provided for machines, whereas hooks, master links and connecting links are components
of machines, and not machines themselves. Providing components with a CE marking is an incorrect
interpretation of the Machinery Directive.
