The 15" Grade 100 Steel Chain Gong Mounting Kit gives you the hardware needed to hang compatible Shoot Steel gong targets without sourcing individual components. The kit includes one 15" length of 3/8" Grade 100 steel chain, two quick links and one 1/2" bolt kit. It is designed for Shoot Steel 3/8" and 1/2" gong targets and is assembled in the USA.
Grade 100 chain provides a higher rated working load than standard or Grade 70 chain, making it well suited for steel gongs that generate repeated dynamic loads on the hanging hardware. Pair the kit with a compatible stand such as the Fence Post Hanger Set of Two or the 60"x60" Complete Rigid Conduit Gong Stand.
