Withdrawn
A Withdrawn Standard is one, which is removed from sale, and its unique number can no longer be used. The Standard can be withdrawn and not replaced, or it can be withdrawn and replaced by a Standard with a different number.

Materials, dimensions, tests for chain slings with higher tensile strength than BS 781. Sizes of short link chain ¼ in to l½ in. Single, two-leg, three-leg, four-leg slings; reevable, non-reevable collar slings; components. Notes on design, with simple formulae for calculating proof loads for rings, links and other intermediate components. Testing machine, details of proof testing and proof loads, a form of certificate of test and examination, recommendations for safe working loads, and for use, c are and maintenance of chain and chain slings, safe working loads for alternative rings.
