Folks ,

Does anyone know what these girder links are made from?

These have been run with the nuts loose and a thread is very worn. They'll need bushing and the rethreading.

Yes, they are a 40 ton steel stamping Air Board specification No S26

Lovely thanks Roger. Sounds like it's ripe for a welded insert.

One side is not threaded. 40 ton would be a heat treated component. IF it's a bolt you can Oversize a new one at that Point. Surely there are a few S/hand ones around? Nev
