Stainless Steel Chain (SS/SSK)

Great resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in practically all over the place
You can find two types of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS sort has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Having said that, it really is created totally of austenite stainless steel and so its tensile power is somewhat reduced than 70% of the conventional roller chain, and greatest allowable load drops to a little more than 10%.
Through the use of precipitation hardened stainless steel for that pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK style has 1.five occasions higher maximum allowable load in contrast on the SS kind. Choose SSK when you will need far more power than SS, or wish longer product or service lifestyle.
Each forms have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Recommended makes use of
?Problems exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Several chemical plats and water remedy plants.
?Ailments of large temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Selection of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduced average tensile strength and greatest allowable load in contrast to your typical roller chain.
Connecting backlinks and offset back links
R connecting links are applied for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller sized and C connecting hyperlinks for #80 or bigger. 2POJ offset back links are used for sizes #25, and OJ hyperlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Conventional sprockets for Stainless Steel chains may be made use of since the dimensions will be the similar as typical roller chains.
Caution
Like a basic residence of stainless steel, worry corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion may be brought about by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on correct exhibits the data of tests to the amount of corrosion resistance for each medium and doesn’t assure the effectiveness in the chains. Please take into consideration the situations, temperature, degree and other general predicament when making use of.
