Catenificio Rigamonti has been operating in the nautical sector since its foundation.
The experience attained over the years ensured products particularly indicated to withstand aggressive environments, characterised by the presence of salt and galvanic currents.
The range foresees calibrated chains for winches, hot deep galvanized pursuant to UNI EN ISO 1461 standard or in stainless steel 316L.
For marinas building, the Genovese chain (DIN 764) or long-link chain (DIN 763) are used.
Various accessories are also used in the sector such as shackles, snap hooks and links.
URBAN FURNISHING
The chains are used to delimit spaces in urban contexts. Multiple types can be supplied based on shape and size (Genovese, DIN 766 and DIN 763). The chains are generally painted in white and red, or in matt micaceous colour. Stainless steel chains are also particularly indicated. Moreover, we supply eyebolts, links and fastening shackles.

We manufacture special chains for zootechnic systems, to feed birds and pigs. Shape and materials are agreed with the customer. Minimum dimensional tolerances favour the application of plastic discs for the distribution of foodstuff. We also supply chains with the plastic component already installed. Alloy steel and thermally treated chains are particularly recommended, which ensure greater durability and safe working load.

Catenificio Rigamonti is specialised in the production of chains implemented in the transport of poultry and white meats in general to slaughterhouses. The chains are manufactured in high quality alloy steels for use in the food industry only, thermally treated with high and deep hardness values to withstand wear. Moreover, utmost attention is paid to surface protection in order to avoid oxidation linked to the presence of water and acids. Moreover, we supply high slip trolleys and products made in material suitable for the food industry; plastic accessory equipped with noiseless stainless steel ball bearings, necessary to assemble the chain on the production line. We also developed chains for the motion of conveyor belts intended to make bread and handle eggs. The chains, in thermally treated alloy or stainless steel, are calibrated and generally supplied in sections paired parallely to favour the application on belts.

Link chains can be applied as components of agricultural machines. They are also particularly suitable for automated systems for cleaning stables. They are generally used on star wheels with very limited dimensional tolerances, they are calibrated and manufactured in thermally treated alloy steels. Sections of Genovese, passing link and DIN 766 chains and loose and connection links are also frequently used.

Hot deep galvanized or stainless steel chains are used to immerse hydraulic pumps in vats and tanks.
We supply sections of custom lengths, with larger links to secure shackles.
PLAYGROUNDS & ADVENTURE PARKS
Hot deep galvanized or stainless steel chains are mounted as components of swings, roundabouts and structures of adventure parks, in order to withstand atmospheric agents.
They feature completely smooth surfaces to avoid abrasions in case of contact with the skin.
Anti-theft
Catenificio Rigamonti’s anti-theft chains are built in boron materials and cemented.
Hardening ensures high resistance against cutting tools for the protection of bicycles, motorcycles and gates.
They consist of round or “D”-shaped links and are covered by a sheath in thermo-shrunk plastic material or a soft sheath in polypropylene to protect metal parts from scratches.
Lifting and lashing
We supply lifting chains, G80 and G100, compliant with UNI EN 818-2 standard and relative UNI EN 1677 accessories.
We also build chain slings pursuant to UNI EN 818-4 standard, tailor-made according to the customer’s needs.
The characteristics are:
– lighter weight than regular steel chains
– more resistance to stress and fatigue thanks to heat treated alloy steel
– operating temperatures from -40° to 200°
– utmost safety ensured by quick or welded fittings with slings’ accessories
