Excellent resistance to corrosion and heat that enables use in virtually all over the place
You can find two sorts of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS form has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Nonetheless, it’s produced entirely of austenite stainless steel and therefore its tensile strength is somewhat reduced than 70% of the common roller chain, and maximum allowable load drops to a bit over 10%.
Through the use of precipitation hardened stainless steel to the pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK variety has one.5 occasions increased maximum allowable load compared on the SS sort. Select SSK any time you need more power than SS, or want longer merchandise lifestyle.
Each styles have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Advised makes use of
?Problems exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Many chemical plats and water treatment method plants.
?Circumstances of large temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Selection of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has lower normal tensile strength and highest allowable load in contrast towards the conventional roller chain.
Connecting links and offset backlinks
R connecting backlinks are used for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller and C connecting backlinks for #80 or larger. 2POJ offset links are employed for sizes #25, and OJ links for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Typical sprockets for Stainless Steel chains is usually made use of because the dimensions are the identical as common roller chains.
Caution
Being a common house of stainless steel, pressure corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion is usually brought about by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on right demonstrates the data of exams within the level of corrosion resistance for every medium and won’t assure the effectiveness of your chains. Please take into consideration the conditions, temperature, degree and other all round predicament when using.
