Outstanding resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in virtually all over the place
You’ll find two forms of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS type has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. On the other hand, it can be created fully of austenite stainless steel and so its tensile strength is slightly reduce than 70% of a regular roller chain, and highest allowable load drops to a little bit in excess of 10%.
By using precipitation hardened stainless steel for your pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK sort has one.five times greater maximum allowable load compared for the SS form. Pick SSK when you need more strength than SS, or desire longer product or service existence.
The two varieties have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Proposed makes use of
?Disorders exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Various chemical plats and water treatment plants.
?Disorders of higher temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Variety of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduced typical tensile strength and greatest allowable load compared to the conventional roller chain.
Connecting links and offset hyperlinks
R connecting links are used for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller sized and C connecting backlinks for #80 or larger. 2POJ offset backlinks are applied for sizes #25, and OJ links for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Typical sprockets for Stainless Steel chains can be applied because the dimensions would be the same as standard roller chains.
Caution
Being a common property of stainless steel, strain corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion can be triggered by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on suitable displays the information of exams around the degree of corrosion resistance for every medium and won’t promise the effectiveness in the chains. Please think about the conditions, temperature, degree and various total predicament when utilizing.
