Stainless Steel Chain (SS/SSK)

Great resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in just about everywhere
You will find two styles of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS form has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. However, it is actually manufactured entirely of austenite stainless steel and therefore its tensile power is somewhat reduced than 70% of the regular roller chain, and optimum allowable load drops to somewhat over 10%.
By utilizing precipitation hardened stainless steel for the pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK variety has one.5 instances increased greatest allowable load compared to the SS variety. Select SSK once you need to have a lot more power than SS, or need longer product lifestyle.
Each sorts have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Recommended makes use of
?Circumstances exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. A variety of chemical plats and water treatment plants.
?Situations of large temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Variety of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduced typical tensile strength and maximum allowable load compared towards the conventional roller chain.
Connecting back links and offset back links
R connecting backlinks are used for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller sized and C connecting links for #80 or larger. 2POJ offset links are used for sizes #25, and OJ backlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Standard sprockets for Stainless Steel chains is often employed since the dimensions are the identical as regular roller chains.
Caution
As a common house of stainless steel, tension corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion may be brought about by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on suitable exhibits the information of exams around the amount of corrosion resistance for each medium and won’t promise the efficiency from the chains. Please take into consideration the conditions, temperature, level along with other total scenario when working with.
