Chain Roller Bearings
Open semi-precision type bearing. Case hardener inner and outer raceways complete with full compliment of case hardener carbon steel balls. The maximum static load capacity is 325 lbs.
Chain Side Links
The conveyor side links are punched from ENS medium tensile steel strip and have a thickness of 3/16 inch.
Spindles
The spindles are machined from EN 32M carbon case-hardening semi-free cutting bright steel. One end of the spindle is knurled to captivate the side link when it is pressed into position. This eliminates the possibility of it rotating in the link.
Cruciform Block
The cruciform block is manufactured from sintered iron and is suitable for applications of up to 180 degree C (356 degree F.) The cruciform block acts as a universal joint allowing the spindles to articulate in both the horizontal and vertical planes.
Track Construction
The track is manufactured from two accurately cold rolled “cruciform” sections. The two sections are spaced apart by bolted end plates at a pitch of 750mm (29-1/2 inch) centers. Track sections are bolted together using (8) #10 mm bolts and locknuts. The standard length is 3000 mm or 9 feet 10-1/8 inches.
