Outstanding resistance to corrosion and heat that permits use in almost all over the place
You’ll find two kinds of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS sort has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Even so, it’s produced entirely of austenite stainless steel and consequently its tensile strength is somewhat lower than 70% of a conventional roller chain, and optimum allowable load drops to a little bit over 10%.
By utilizing precipitation hardened stainless steel for your pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK kind has 1.five occasions increased optimum allowable load in contrast to your SS style. Select SSK when you want additional power than SS, or desire longer item life.
The two styles have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Advised makes use of
?Conditions exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Many chemical plats and water treatment method plants.
?Situations of large temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Collection of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduced regular tensile strength and maximum allowable load compared to your regular roller chain.
Connecting links and offset hyperlinks
R connecting backlinks are utilised for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller and C connecting back links for #80 or larger. 2POJ offset links are applied for sizes #25, and OJ hyperlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Normal sprockets for Stainless Steel chains is usually employed because the dimensions will be the similar as normal roller chains.
Caution
Like a common property of stainless steel, pressure corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion can be caused by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on appropriate shows the information of tests within the amount of corrosion resistance for each medium and isn’t going to assure the effectiveness with the chains. Please take into consideration the problems, temperature, level and various total situation when making use of.
