CASTING DETACHABLE CHAINS is the initial malleable iron chain to be used extensively for industry-wide applications. It Conveyor Chain really is a light-weight, low priced chain obtainable in a complete range of sizes and can be utilized in a wide variety of applications where light and moderate loads are carried at gradual or intermediate speeds in relatively clean atmospheres. Constructed of one-piece, interconnecting links, Detachable Chain is simple to assemble and also to disassemble. Person links are inserted in one side, at the proper position, as illustrated. When completely inserted, the hyperlink is reduced to the same plane as all of those other chain and turns into an interlock chain segment until it is again elevated to the proper angle and detached.
Where no take-up comes in a chain application, correctly pitched coupler links, attached in pairs with pin and cotter, can be utilized to become listed on ends into a continuous chain with a minimum of slack.
Detachable Chain operates with the closed side of the hook riding following to the sprocket wheel. For drive applications, the path of travel can be in the direction of the hook; for conveyorand elevator applications, the path of travel can be in direction of the finish bar.
The Detachable chain is produced inside our cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). Tensile strengths of Promal links range from 880 to 21,250 pounds. Two link styles are also offered: Style •A” has a plain hook and fulfills regular service requirements; Style “B” includes a ribbed hook more suitable for heavy-duty assistance. All Detachable links are precision made to regular chain industry specs and so are interchangeable with other producers’ chain links.
The pitch range of our Detachable Chain, 0.902 to 4.063 inches, satisfies a multitude of detachable applications. A complete range of attachment styles is offered. Brutaloy or cast metal sprockets can be found for every detachable pitch size.
Material:
Detachable Chain are links cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). It is furnished with carbon steel temperature treated pins and carbon metal case hardened bushings as standard. However, stainless steel pins and bushings could be provided when specific.
