11. What is the likely effect of exposing alloy steel chain to an acid for a short while?
It will clean the chain and make it bright
# It will cause hydrogen embrittlement
It will eat away the chain
It will increase the strength of the chain
12. What is the purpose of the short flattened area often seen on one side of some links?
To provide a flat area for marking
To identify where the weld is
To prevent coupling components from slipping around the link
# To enable narrow jawed coupling components to be fitted
13. If a round section link has an internal length of 8 times the material diameter, where will the
maximum stress occur?
In the straight sides
At the extremes of the intrados at the ends of the straight sides
# At the extrados on the crown
At the intrados on the crown
15. Where does the maximum stress occur in the bowl of a hook?
In the seat of the hook
At the back of the hook where the section is thinnest
At the back of the hook where the section is thickest
# At the point on the intrados farthest away from the line of pull
16. If a well designed hook is overloaded to the point of deformation, what should happen?
# As the hook opens, the point of maximum stress will move to a thicker section
The hook will open slowly but continuously giving a warning of failure
The hook will hold the load briefly before failure
The hook will fail
17. When examining links which have been in service, what would cause you to withdraw the link from
further service?
Light surface corrosion
# Wear giving an 8% reduction in diameter
Wear giving a 6% reduction in diameter
Splashes of paint
