O-Ring Chain (LD)/X-Ring Chain (LX)

Highest wear resistance accessible by sealing grease among pins and bushings
The durability of chain is substantially enhanced due to the fact grease is sealed among the pins and bushings by O-rings. The O-ring chain is the most dependable model on the Ultimate Life Chain Series with its outstanding put on resistance even in the situations or environments wherever chain servicing is challenging.
Advisable employs.
?Circumstances the place frequent chain substitute is required on account of wear stretch
?Circumstances exactly where lubrication throughout the service is unattainable
?In an atmosphere with considerably soil, sand, dust, and so forth.
?Applications that demand power higher than that of a sintered bushing roller chain
Other characteristics
?Minimizing noise. (The noise degree is 3 dB lower in contrast to typical roller chains.)
?Decreasing vibration with all the friction made by O-Ring. (The power reduction because of the friction is almost negligible, since the frictional force in between the pins and bushings is for typically in the applications.)
Choice of chains
The strength of an O-ring chain is nearly exactly the same as that of a common roller chain. (Since the pins are longer than these of regular roller chain, the common rupture strength is somewhat decrease.)
For picking a suitable chain, refer to “Selection of Chains” .
Once the services ambient temperature is greater than 80° C, specific heat resistant O-rings need to be employed. In this case, contact us for more facts.
Connecting back links and offset links
Two forms of connecting links can be found: clearance fit and interference fit. When large strength or durability is required, use interference-fit connecting hyperlink. Only 2POJ is accessible since the offset website link for all sizes.
Sprockets
O-ring chain employs longer pins than a conventional roller chain. When applying multiplex O-ring chain, the standard sprocket for multiplex chains cannot be employed.
Caution
O-ring chain is not really proposed in applications where solvents or other substances may possibly attack “Nitric Rubber”. Exclusive material O-rings may also be readily available for these circumstances: Please seek the advice of us for details. On the whole, “Nitric Rubber” is broken by speak to with all the following chemical elements.
