Highest wear resistance offered by sealing grease among pins and bushings
The durability of chain is significantly enhanced because grease is sealed concerning the pins and bushings by O-rings. The O-ring chain is definitely the most reliable model from the Greatest Lifestyle Chain Series with its superb put on resistance even from the situations or environments in which chain maintenance is tough.
Encouraged employs.
?Circumstances the place frequent chain substitute is required as a result of dress in stretch
?Situations in which lubrication during the services is unattainable
?In an environment with substantially soil, sand, dust, and so forth.
?Applications that require power higher than that of the sintered bushing roller chain
Other characteristics
?Cutting down noise. (The noise degree is 3 dB reduced compared to typical roller chains.)
?Reducing vibration with all the friction made by O-Ring. (The power loss due to the friction is nearly negligible, because the frictional force involving the pins and bushings is for commonly from the applications.)
Choice of chains
The strength of an O-ring chain is almost the same as that of the regular roller chain. (Because the pins are longer than individuals of typical roller chain, the typical rupture strength is somewhat lower.)
For picking out an appropriate chain, refer to “Selection of Chains” .
Once the support ambient temperature is increased than 80° C, specific heat resistant O-rings needs to be used. In this instance, speak to us for far more info.
Connecting back links and offset links
Two varieties of connecting backlinks are available: clearance match and interference fit. When large strength or sturdiness is needed, use interference-fit connecting hyperlink. Only 2POJ is obtainable since the offset hyperlink for all sizes.
Sprockets
O-ring chain employs longer pins than a regular roller chain. When making use of multiplex O-ring chain, the regular sprocket for multiplex chains can’t be utilised.
Caution
O-ring chain is not really suggested in applications exactly where solvents or other substances could assault “Nitric Rubber”. Specific material O-rings can also be readily available for these circumstances: Please seek advice from us for specifics. Generally, “Nitric Rubber” is broken by contact with the following chemical products.
