Structure and Composition

• Basic Structure: Stainless steel roller chains consist of alternating inner and outer chain links, connected by pins. Each inner link includes two inner plates, two bushings, and two rollers; outer links comprise two outer plates and two pins.

• Component Functions: Rollers rotate freely on bushings, reducing friction and wear between the chain and sprockets during meshing, thereby improving transmission efficiency and service life. Pins connect inner and outer links, enabling flexible bending and power transmission. Plates provide support and force transmission, ensuring the chain’s strength and stability.

Material Characteristics

• Strong Corrosion Resistance: Typically made from austenitic stainless steels such as 304, 316, or 316L. These materials excel in resisting erosion from acids, alkalis, salts, and other chemicals, making them suitable for corrosive environments like food processing, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.

• High and Low Temperature Resistance: Operate reliably within a temperature range of -40°C to 600°C, adapting to high-temperature baking, low-temperature freezing, and other extreme conditions (e.g., high-temperature furnace conveying, cold storage cargo transfer).

• High Strength: Possess excellent tensile and fatigue strength, withstanding large tensile forces and impacts without easy breakage, ideal for high-power transmission systems.

• Hygienic and Eco-Friendly: The smooth surface of stainless steel resists bacterial growth and dirt accumulation, is easy to clean and sterilize, and meets food and pharmaceutical hygiene standards—perfect for food processing, pharmaceutical production, and other hygiene-critical fields.

Classification

• By Pitch

• Short-Pitch Roller Chains: Smaller pitch, high transmission precision, suitable for high-speed, light-load applications such as textile machinery and printing equipment.

• Double-Pitch Roller Chains: Pitch is twice that of short-pitch chains, with larger plates and higher load capacity. Used in low-speed, heavy-load systems like mining and construction machinery.

• By Function and Type

• Series A Short-Pitch Precision Roller Chains: Compliant with international standards, featuring high precision and reliability, widely used in various mechanical transmissions.

• Series B Short-Pitch Precision Roller Chains: Similar to Series A but with slight differences in dimensions and performance, suited for specialized transmission requirements.

• Heavy-Duty Roller Chains: Larger plates, pins, and components for enhanced strength, designed to handle extremely heavy loads in heavy-duty transmission.

• Short-Pitch Conveyor Chain Attachments: Modified short-pitch chains with added accessories (e.g., scrapers, pushers) for material conveying and transfer.

Application Fields

• Food and Beverage Industry: Used in food processing lines, beverage filling systems, and bakery equipment. For example, chains drive baking trays in biscuit production lines, ensuring hygiene and stability during processing.

• Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry: Applied in corrosive material handling, drug production conveyors, and chemical processing equipment due to their corrosion resistance.

• Mining and Construction: Heavy-duty stainless steel chains power machinery like crushers and conveyors in harsh, dusty, or wet environments.

• Aerospace and Marine: Utilized in equipment requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and reliability, such as shipboard machinery and aerospace tooling.
