The safe and efficient retrieval of submersible pumps is a critical, yet challenging, operation for industries (water treatment in particular) worldwide. Corrosion, confined spaces, and extreme depths create a complex set of demands for lifting equipment. SCIC specializes in engineering solutions for these exact challenges. Our stainless steel pump lifting chains are not just components; they are integrated safety systems designed to ensure that maintenance and repair operations in water utilities, mining, and industrial plants are conducted with maximum reliability and minimum risk.

Crafted from premium-grade materials, our pump lifting chains are built to last. We offer a selection of stainless steels to match your specific environmental conditions. Type SS304 lifting chains provides excellent all-around corrosion resistance for general applications. For more aggressive settings involving chlorides or in saline environments, Type SS316 lifting chains offers superior protection thanks to its molybdenum content. For the most corrosive conditions, such as those found in chemical processing or highly acidic wastewater, Type SS316L lifting chains is the recommended choice for its enhanced resistance to sensitization and pitting. This material science ensures the structural integrity of the chain is not compromised over time, protecting your valuable assets and personnel.


We understand that no two sites are identical. Therefore, our pump lifting chains are available in custom working lengths to suit the unique depth of your borehole, well, or sump. With standard Safe Working Loads (SWL) up to 8,000 kg, and the capability to engineer solutions for even greater capacities, SCIC provides the strength of pump lifting chains needed for the heaviest submersible pumps and motors.
The true innovation of our design lies in its practical functionality for deep-well retrieval. A standard lifting chain sling is insufficient for depths that exceed the height of a portable tripod. Our chains are intelligently designed with a large, robust master link at each end, and a secondary anchorage link (master link) at one-meter intervals along the entire length. This patented design enables a secure “stop-and-reset” procedure. When a pump has been lifted to the maximum reach of the tripod, the chain can be safely anchored onto an auxiliary hook. The portable hoist can then be quickly repositioned to the next master link down the round link chain, and the lifting process repeats seamlessly. This methodical approach eliminates the need for risky manual handling and allows a small team to safely retrieve equipment from depths of dozens of meters.
Trusted by water authorities and industrial operators globally, SCIC pump lifting chains are the definitive standard for safety and efficiency. We also offer special made-to-order assemblies, featuring oversized master links and other custom components for non-standard applications.
