FOREWORD
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation
of national standards institutes (IS0 Member Bodies). The work of developing
International Standards is carried out through IS0 Technical Committees. Every
Member Body interested in a subject for which a Technical Committee has been set
up has the right to be represented on that Committee. International organizations,
governmental and nongovernmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the Technical Committees are circulated
to the Member Bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
Standards by the IS0 Council.
International Standard IS0 2415 was drawn UD by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 11 1, Round steel link chains, chain wheels, lifting hooks and accessories,
and circulated to the Member Bodies in August 1971.
It has been approved by the Member Bodies of the following countries :
Austria I re land South Africa, Rep. of
Canada Italy Sweden
Egypt, Arab Rep. of Netherlands Thailand
France New Zealand Turkey
India Romania United Kingdom
The Member Bodies of the following countries expressed disapproval of the
document on technical grounds :
