Roller Chain with Vulcanised Elastomer Profiles Conveyor Chain C08B-G1

Roller Chain with Vulcanised Elastomer Profiles Conveyor Chain C08B-G1

The C08B-G1 conveyor chain is a high-performance engineered solution integrating standard roller chain structure with vulcanised elastomer profiles, designed for material handling and conveying applications across industrial sectors. It combines the robust mechanical strength of precision roller chain with the wear resistance, shock absorption, and non-slip performance of vulcanised elastomers, delivering reliable, low-noise, and stable conveying for a wide range of workpieces and bulk materials.

• Base chain type: C08B precision roller chain (conforms to industrial roller chain standards for dimensional accuracy and load capacity)

• Elastomer profile: High-quality rubber/elastomer vulcanised firmly to the chain’s outer plates

• Vulcanisation process: High-temperature and high-pressure integral vulcanisation, ensuring zero delamination between elastomer and metal base under dynamic load

• Pitch: Standard C08B pitch (matching universal sprocket and conveyor system compatibility)

• Elastomer hardness: Customisable (Shore A 60-90) for different friction and wear requirements

• Operating temperature: -20°C ~ +80°C (special elastomer formulations available for extreme temperature environments)

1. Dual-material synergy

   Precision-machined steel roller chain provides excellent tensile strength and fatigue resistance, suitable for continuous heavy-duty conveying; vulcanised elastomer profiles offer superior grip, preventing workpiece slippage and surface scratch during transmission.
2. Superior bonding strength

   Integral vulcanisation technology creates a permanent, airtight bond between elastomer and metal plates, resisting oil, water, and chemical corrosion in industrial environments, and eliminating elastomer peeling or cracking under long-term dynamic operation.
3. Low noise & shock absorption

   Elastomer profiles absorb vibration and impact during conveying, reducing operational noise (30% lower than all-steel conveyor chains) and protecting both the chain system and conveyed products from damage.
4. Wear resistance & long service life

   High-grade elastomer material with anti-abrasion formulation, paired with heat-treated steel chain components (pins, bushings, rollers), ensures excellent wear resistance for both dry and mild wet conveying conditions, extending maintenance intervals and reducing downtime.
5. Easy integration & interchangeability

   Based on standard C08B roller chain dimensions, the chain is fully interchangeable with conventional C08B sprockets and conveyor drive systems, requiring no additional modification to existing equipment for retrofitting or replacement.
6. Customisable profiles

   Elastomer profile shape, thickness, and hardness can be customised according to customer conveying needs (e.g., flat, grooved, or textured profiles) for optimal adaptation to specific workpiece shapes and material characteristics.

• Light to medium material conveying in automotive, electronics, and home appliance manufacturing (e.g., component transfer, assembly line conveying)

• Packaging and logistics industry (carton, pallet, and parcel conveying with non-slip requirements)

• Food and beverage processing (dry food conveying, non-marking bottle/can transfer; food-grade elastomer option available)

• Woodworking and furniture production (panel and workpiece conveying, preventing surface scuffing)

• General industrial automation lines (low-noise, stable conveying of small to medium-sized parts)

• Conforms to industrial roller chain standards for mechanical performance and dimensional tolerance

• Elastomer material meets RoHS environmental requirements, free of harmful substances

• 100% pre-delivery dynamic load testing to ensure no elastomer delamination and stable chain operation

• Customised material and profile solutions available for special working conditions (e.g., oil-resistant, high-temperature, anti-static)

• Regularly check elastomer profiles for wear or damage; replace the chain if severe abrasion occurs

• Avoid contact with strong solvents and high-temperature open fire to prevent elastomer ageing

• Lubricate the inner roller chain components (pins, bushings) with special lubricants (compatible with elastomer materials) to ensure smooth rotation

• Operate within the rated load and speed to extend the overall service life of the chain system
