Our Zinc-Plated Chains are designed for power transmission and conveying applications where improved resistance to moisture, oxidation, and environmental exposure is required.
Manufactured from precision-engineered steel components and finished with a zinc protective coating, the chain provides an additional barrier against corrosion while maintaining reliable mechanical performance.
The zinc-plated finish makes this chain suitable for applications where standard carbon steel chains may require additional surface protection.
The zinc coating provides a protective barrier between the steel surface and the surrounding environment, helping reduce oxidation and corrosion during exposure to moisture and humid conditions.
Chain components are manufactured from selected steel materials and precision-formed to provide reliable tensile strength, dimensional consistency, and wear resistance.
Precision-manufactured rollers, bushings, pins, and plates help provide stable chain engagement with sprockets and consistent power transmission during operation.
The zinc-plated surface improves surface protection while providing a clean metallic appearance suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Different chain configurations, attachments, and connection components can be supplied according to equipment requirements.
We manufacture zinc-plated chains according to customer drawings, samples, ANSI/ISO specifications, or application requirements.

Actual specifications depend on chain size, material, plating process, and customer requirements.
The zinc-plated surface acts as a protective layer over the steel substrate.
Depending on the required corrosion resistance and application environment, different zinc-plating processes and coating specifications can be selected.
Key parameters may include:
Zinc coating thickness
Plating method
Surface appearance
Salt spray resistance requirement
Post-treatment
Passivation
Environmental operating conditions
For applications exposed to moisture or corrosive environments, the appropriate zinc coating specification should be selected based on actual operating conditions.
Note: Zinc-plated chain provides improved corrosion resistance compared with untreated carbon steel chain, but it should not automatically be considered suitable for continuous immersion, highly acidic/alkaline environments, or applications requiring food-grade corrosion-resistant materials.
A typical roller chain consists of precision-manufactured components including:
Outer Plates
Provide structural strength and transmit tensile loads.
Inner Plates
Support the bushings and rollers and engage with the sprocket.
Pins
Connect the outer plates and carry tensile loads during operation.
Bushings
Provide the bearing surface between pins and inner links.
Rollers
Engage with the sprocket teeth and help reduce sliding friction during chain operation.
Proper control of component dimensions and assembly tolerances contributes to smooth chain articulation and stable sprocket engagement.
Zinc-plated chains are suitable for a variety of industrial environments where enhanced surface protection is required.
Typical applications include:
Material Handling Equipment
Conveyor Systems
Packaging Machinery
Agricultural Machinery
Food Processing Equipment*
Textile Machinery
Printing Machinery
Industrial Automation
Outdoor Equipment
Light-Duty Industrial Machinery
General Power Transmission Systems
For direct food-contact applications, the chain material, lubricant, coating system, and applicable food-contact requirements should be specifically confirmed.
Suitable for applications where the chain may encounter humidity, condensation, or intermittent exposure to moisture.
