Frequently Asked Questions
SS Roller Chains are made entirely of austenitic 304 stainless steel. The material composition includes Carbon (C) at less than 0.08%, Chromium (Cr) at 18.00 to 20.00%, and Nickel (Ni) at 8.00 to 10.50%. This composition ensures excellent corrosion resistance and durability, making them ideal for use in food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
To maintain SS Roller Chains in a corrosive environment, regular lubrication is essential. Apply silicon grease to the chain gaps to prevent noise and difficult articulation, especially when chains cycle between freezing and room temperatures. Proper lubrication extends the chain's working life and ensures optimal performance.
SS Roller Chains can be used at high temperatures, but extra clearance in the chain joints is required for temperatures above 400℃. Thermal expansion might cause the joints to seize and the chain to break. Always inform the manufacturer of the operating temperatures to get the best recommendations for your specific application.
Yes, other corrosion-resistant chains include the NS Series, which are made from austenitic stainless steel SS316. These chains offer greater resistance to corrosion and heat compared to SS Roller Chains and are almost nonmagnetic. However, they are more expensive and have specific application requirements.
SS Roller Chains are known for their glossy stainless steel appearance and exceptional corrosion resistance. They are constructed similarly to ANSI Roller Chains but are made entirely from 304 stainless steel. Despite their resistance, they may experience stress-corrosion cracking under certain highly corrosive conditions.
SS Roller Chains are suitable for splash applications but should not be submerged in water or other liquids. The ideal environment for these chains is indoors where rust prevention is critical. Submersion can lead to performance issues and reduced lifespan.
SS Roller Chains have a high ratio between tensile strength and maximum allowable tension, making them robust even under high tension during infrequent start-ups. Poly-Steel Chains, however, have a lower ratio and require careful selection to avoid breakage, especially considering inertia shock.
When selecting Poly-Steel Chains, it's crucial to account for maximum tension, including inertia shock. These chains have a lower ratio between tensile strength and allowable tension compared to SS Roller Chains. Improper selection could lead to chain breakage, so thorough assessment is necessary for satisfactory results.
