Stainless Steel Chain (SS/SSK)

Great resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in just about all over the place
You will find two forms of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS type has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Having said that, it is actually produced entirely of austenite stainless steel and therefore its tensile strength is slightly reduce than 70% of the regular roller chain, and highest allowable load drops to slightly above 10%.
Through the use of precipitation hardened stainless steel for the pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK kind has one.five instances higher maximum allowable load in contrast to your SS kind. Pick SSK when you have to have additional strength than SS, or want longer solution lifestyle.
Each kinds have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Recommended utilizes
?Disorders exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Various chemical plats and water treatment plants.
?Situations of higher temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Collection of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduce normal tensile strength and greatest allowable load in contrast towards the normal roller chain.
Connecting back links and offset hyperlinks
R connecting hyperlinks are applied for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller sized and C connecting hyperlinks for #80 or greater. 2POJ offset hyperlinks are used for sizes #25, and OJ backlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Conventional sprockets for Stainless Steel chains is usually utilised since the dimensions would be the exact same as regular roller chains.
Caution
Being a common house of stainless steel, anxiety corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion is often induced by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on right displays the data of exams to the level of corrosion resistance for each medium and isn’t going to guarantee the effectiveness of your chains. Please consider the situations, temperature, degree and various all round problem when using.
