Stainless Steel Chain (SS/SSK)

Superb resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in practically all over the place
You will discover two varieties of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS type has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. However, it really is made entirely of austenite stainless steel and hence its tensile power is somewhat reduce than 70% of a typical roller chain, and optimum allowable load drops to slightly above 10%.
By using precipitation hardened stainless steel for that pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK kind has one.five occasions higher maximum allowable load compared for the SS sort. Decide on SSK whenever you will need far more power than SS, or wish longer product lifestyle.
The two sorts have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Encouraged uses
?Conditions exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. A variety of chemical plats and water remedy plants.
?Circumstances of large temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Variety of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has decrease regular tensile strength and highest allowable load in contrast for the common roller chain.
Connecting links and offset links
R connecting hyperlinks are made use of for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller and C connecting links for #80 or bigger. 2POJ offset hyperlinks are utilised for sizes #25, and OJ hyperlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Conventional sprockets for Stainless Steel chains can be used because the dimensions would be the identical as typical roller chains.
Caution
As being a common house of stainless steel, pressure corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion may be triggered by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on right shows the information of exams over the degree of corrosion resistance for every medium and will not promise the overall performance with the chains. Please take into consideration the problems, temperature, level together with other general problem when employing.
