What is the purpose of the metal chain?

The metal chain simply holds the saw motor / blade assembly in a down position - for storage or transporting. Different than other chop saws I have that have a "Pin /lock" type mechanism" The chain works OK but seems a little "cheap" Otherwise a good saw for the price. Plan on changing the blade fairly early on.

It is for carrying - hook the chain and you can lift using the handle w/o stressing the saw pivot.

The clasp allows you to cut the length if the bracelet is too big. It also secures the bracelet to your arm. It is a secure fit unlike some of the chain bracelets.

They're coated steel. Scraped a little off one jaw and saw silver metal underneath. Also found that a magnet clamped to it easily indicating ferrous content. Copper is a bit soft for the kind of work you want these jaws to stand up to, thus making the steel 'backbone' necessary I guess.

I am not sure I understand your question, but I used a drill bit for metal, and it worked perfectly.

yeah those two peices are rubber gaskets. they serve two purposes, the first is to stop the nozzle from strtching your paint and the second one, more importantly, is to help keep the nozzles from moving around. as for the metal bit that the others have mentions I have no clue what that is for or even where it could go.

Metal. It gives the appearance of the old type of lock that moved vertically into the top and bottom, or a hing. It looks nice up close.

Neither, it is a chain. The whole thing is pretty hefty and solid, heavy duty including the chain. But the chain is only about 18" long. In my opinion, not long enough.

It is to make a single band cat tail with you put the band on it and loop it though another band and make a single band chain its a single chain loom

I don't know. We specifically bought the lamp for the purpose of using it with a chain. We looked everywhere (Lowes - Sam's etc.) and all of the lamps they had would have required a lot of work to hang them with a chain. So this is the ideal (inexpensive) solution to those who want to hang a lamp with a chain.

It's green rubber coating the bottom half of the chain and the top half of the chain is uncoated metal.

Hello. I also received the chain. It seems to work just fine. If the chain makes contact with another object that's conductive, it does tend to discharge to the object. However, I assume that would happen with the cable too unless the cable was coated.

The chain fits a certain size tire whatever the vehicle happens to be that the tire is mounted on.I think the implication meant by "passenger car" is they don't want you trying to use these to do serious road work like plowing or something. They just help keep you safe going from A to B.

I'm sorry, there are conflicting anwers here about the metal strips. Are they for show, or do they shock someone who tries to grab it away from you?

None specifically for a security chain... But there are places route a sercurity chain... I would recommend a coated chain/cable

Agree with Robert. It is being used on a log splitter, the metal one rusted.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect it is just a marketing reference to the color of the accent plastic. The metal is a light stainless steel.

No chain was provided in this purchase; I suspect the chain would be included in the rail assembly.In my case, it was a replacement for a unit that had ceased function, so all I can say is that the new unit is fully compatible with the chain used by my old 1200-series unit.Sorry I cannot be of further help.
