Abstract

The invention relates to a tensioning chain provided with grippers in which the gripper body is made from cast spheroidal graphite or high-grade cast steel, the arms for pivot mounting of the gripper flap run at an angle upwards, the angle between the two arms of the gripper flap is kept small and the ratio of length to diameter of the link pins is between 1:0.9 and 1:1.5. Such a gripper is distinguished in particular by a particularly low overall height.
