Short Pitch Conveyor Chain with Attachments
As a precision core component for industrial material handling systems, the Short Pitch Conveyor Chain with Attachments is engineered to deliver stable, efficient, and versatile conveying performance in medium-speed, medium-load scenarios. Adhering strictly to ANSI B29.1 and ISO 606 standards, this chain features a short pitch design (12.7mm to 31.75mm) paired with standardized and customizable attachments, ensuring precise sprocket meshing, uniform load distribution, and seamless compatibility with a wide range of conveyor systems—making it a reliable choice for manufacturing, logistics, and processing industries.
Core Advantages: Short Pitch Precision & Versatile Attachments
The defining advantage of this chain lies in its short pitch structure, which enables higher meshing frequency with sprockets, delivering superior transmission accuracy and operational stability compared to long-pitch chains. This design is optimized for medium-speed operations (up to 400 rpm), minimizing chain vibration and ensuring smooth material conveying, even for small or lightweight workpieces. Paired with a full range of attachments—including standard A-type (carrying), K-type (pushing), and customizable fixtures—it adapts to diverse material handling needs, from unit goods like cartons and components to small-batch bulk materials.
Built for durability and reliability, the chain core is crafted from high-grade carbon steel (1045) or alloy steel, with precision-stamped side plates and heat-treated rollers, pins, and bushings. Through carburizing, quenching, and tempering processes, wear parts (rollers, pins) achieve a surface hardness of HRC 58-62, while the core maintains excellent toughness to resist impact and deformation. Attachments are firmly welded or bolted to the side plates, with reinforced connection points to withstand dynamic loads and prevent detachment—ensuring consistent performance in continuous operation.
Versatility and cost-effectiveness are further enhanced by its modular design. Available in single-strand, double-strand, and triple-strand configurations, it covers working load capacities from 8kN to 120kN, adapting to varying load requirements. Optional surface treatments—black oxide, zinc plating, and nickel plating—provide targeted corrosion resistance for humid, dusty, or moderately corrosive environments. The short pitch design also simplifies installation and maintenance, with compatibility with standard ANSI sprockets reducing replacement costs and downtime.
Structural Excellence & Operational Stability
Optimized for precision conveying, the short pitch structure ensures tight meshing with sprockets, eliminating lateral deflection and maintaining consistent alignment even in long-distance conveyor systems. The roller-bushing assembly minimizes contact friction, reducing energy loss and extending service life, while the flat, straight side plates ensure uniform attachment positioning—critical for stable material transport. The chain operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20℃ to 120℃, adapting to indoor industrial environments and mild outdoor conditions.
Safety and maintainability are integrated into every detail. Attachments feature smooth, rounded edges to prevent material damage and debris accumulation, reducing jamming risks. The chain supports both cottered (permanent) and spring clip (quick-adjust) connections, enabling on-site maintenance without specialized tools. Its predictable wear pattern allows for proactive servicing, while standardized components ensure easy replacement of links or attachments—minimizing operational interruptions.
