Stainless Steel Chain (SS/SSK)

Exceptional resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in virtually all over the place
There are actually two varieties of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS variety has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Having said that, it really is manufactured completely of austenite stainless steel and so its tensile strength is somewhat lower than 70% of a regular roller chain, and highest allowable load drops to a bit in excess of 10%.
By utilizing precipitation hardened stainless steel to the pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK form has one.five times larger highest allowable load in contrast to your SS sort. Select SSK any time you have to have a lot more power than SS, or need longer product daily life.
Each varieties have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Advised utilizes
?Problems exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Numerous chemical plats and water therapy plants.
?Situations of substantial temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Choice of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduce regular tensile strength and optimum allowable load compared on the normal roller chain.
Connecting back links and offset back links
R connecting backlinks are utilized for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller sized and C connecting backlinks for #80 or bigger. 2POJ offset backlinks are applied for sizes #25, and OJ hyperlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Normal sprockets for Stainless Steel chains may be utilized because the dimensions will be the same as typical roller chains.
Caution
As a basic property of stainless steel, pressure corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion is often triggered by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on proper exhibits the information of exams on the amount of corrosion resistance for every medium and does not guarantee the overall performance on the chains. Please consider the disorders, temperature, level as well as other all round scenario when applying.
