Professional Plumber Chain Manufacturer in China
Tuohai’s plumber chain is produced using a stamping process, featuring an oval-like shape. It is made thicker and stronger than ordinary sash chains, providing higher load-bearing capacity for plumbing installations, and can also be used as a hinging chain.
What is Plumbers Chain?
Plumbers Chain is a type of weldless chain, but its structure differs from other weldless chains like double loop chains and jack chains, the plumbers’ chains are constructed by connecting stamped links made from thin steel plates, it is also known as Plumbers Safety Chain, which is a type of sash chain similar in shape to a window chain. Made primarily from carbon steel or stainless steel and treated with surface finishes like electroplating to prevent corrosion, it is commonly used for plumbing applications, such as suspending or securing various pipes. Additionally, it serves as a hanging chain for other suspension needs.
For different materials, finishes, or chain sizes, you can also consider Bronze Sash Chain.

Plumbers Chain Made for Your Assembly
Tuohai manufactures Plumbers Chain in-house and can supply it cut to your required length with end fittings attached. You can order the chain, material, finish and fitting assembly together, reducing cutting and assembly work at your facility. We support plumbing fixture connections, removable cover retention and replacement chain orders, with samples available before bulk production.
Where Can You Use Our Plumbers Chain?
Connections for Plumbing Fixtures
For your plumbing fixtures, we can supply flat link chain in specified lengths and assemble the end fittings to your connection requirements. This gives you a chain assembly for keeping small removable parts attached while allowing them to move. For basin or bathtub plug applications, we review both end connections and the required reach with you. The material and finish must also suit the expected contact with water and cleaning agents.
Retaining Chains for Removable Covers
We can supply a keeper chain for your valve cap or gauge cover, with the length and end fittings based on the cover’s opening movement and attachment points. The assembly keeps the cover with the equipment when removed and allows room to put it back. This service covers cap and cover retention; it does not cover valve handwheel operation or supporting equipment weight.
Replacement Chains Based on Your Existing Parts
We can assess a replacement from your existing chain sample or drawing, even if you do not know its name. Photos and measurements can also help us review the link’s inside length, width and material thickness, along with total length and end fittings. We check these details against the original material and use requirements before proposing a replacement. Similar appearance alone does not confirm interchangeability.
These applications are for light-duty connections. Suitability is confirmed against your assembly requirements; this chain is not for lifting or supporting heavy pipes.

Standard product samples are available free of charge for checking dimensions, finish and fit; shipping is usually at your cost. Custom samples or new tooling may involve a fee, which we explain before sampling. Any credit of sample fees toward a later order is confirmed in the quotation. Bulk production follows the approved drawings, samples and product requirements.
Our inspections cover materials, link dimensions, finished length and surface condition according to your order, with checks and sampling during production. We can include the connection dimensions critical to your assembly, giving you inspection information tied to the fit you need.
For performance verification, we can arrange tensile, breaking load or salt spray tests to the agreed test conditions and acceptance requirements. Required material records, inspection records and applicable test reports are confirmed with the order. If you arrange third-party inspection before shipment, we will cooperate with the agreed scope and schedule. Batches that do not meet the requirements are handled through reinspection, sorting or rework as required.

We can pack your chain around how you receive and use it:
- Reels supply continuous lengths for unwinding and cutting as needed.
- Paper boxes, cartons and bags group specified quantities, lengths or fitting combinations for counting, storage and distribution.
- Bundles and drums provide bulk packaging based on supply length and how you take out the chain.
- Wooden outer cases group packed chains for handling and add transport protection.
For resale or stock management, we can print your logo or design and label packs with specifications, quantities or part numbers. Different sizes can be packed separately for easier identification and distribution. The final packaging follows the agreed chain length, quantity and shipping arrangements.
