You’ll find a range of choice for heat treatment method and specifications for your conveyor chains. Specific treatments is usually applied not just on the chain as being a complete but to every single element individually, such as pins or plates only.
Select wanted combinations in reference on the following explanation of capabilities and utilizes.
Double Guard Coating
The surface is taken care of with excellent corrosion resistant coating that approaches the resistance of stainless steel. Double guard coating includes double layers of two distinct resources. It exhibits just about doubled corrosive resistance in the salt water spray check compared to our standard higher guard coating, and may be used in mild alkaline or mild acidic conditions up to pH3.
With its improved corrosive resistance, it could possibly be used in conditions exactly where higher guard or plated coatings cannot be utilized, and in some cases in some circumstances wherever only stainless steel might be employed.
(Double guard coating cannot be utilized to welded components.)
Higher Guard Coating
Large guard coated surface has fantastic corrosion resistance.
The surface in the chain is finished in non-gloss white extremely protective coating. It’s outstanding resistance to salt corrosion and rusting. This coating protects chains in substantial temperatures as it can resist heat up to about 250°C.
Since higher guard coating acts as a sacrificial anode for the chain entire body, you’ll be able to anticipate adequate corrosion resistance even if the coating has come off to some extent. Also, it might be applied to welded components.
It is actually recommended for outside use or near the sea in circumstances in which effectiveness as substantial as that of stainless steel is not required. In circumstances that call for resistance to alkaline and acid, double guard or stainless steel coating is recommended as they have improved resistance than high guard.
Plating
Plating is mostly finished with nickel. It truly is a coating with the two interesting exterior and corrosion resistance. Through the use of it with grease lubrication, it exhibits great corrosion resistance. You’ll be able to anticipate the impact to delay hydrogen brittle destruction when used in circumstances exactly where chains are exposed to sea breeze or acidic sprays.
(Double guard coating can’t be utilized to welded elements.)
