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

Highest wear resistance out there by sealing grease involving pins and bushings
The durability of chain is radically enhanced since grease is sealed in between the pins and bushings by O-rings. The O-ring chain is definitely the most reliable model on the Ultimate Daily life Chain Series with its superb put on resistance even during the situations or environments wherever chain upkeep is hard.
Recommended employs.
?Conditions the place frequent chain replacement is required as a consequence of put on stretch
?Situations exactly where lubrication throughout the support is extremely hard
?In an atmosphere with significantly soil, sand, dust, and so on.
?Applications that call for power higher than that of the sintered bushing roller chain
Other options
?Decreasing noise. (The noise degree is three dB reduce in contrast to standard roller chains.)
?Reducing vibration with the friction produced by O-Ring. (The electrical power reduction as a result of friction is nearly negligible, because the frictional force involving the pins and bushings is for usually in the applications.)
Selection of chains
The strength of an O-ring chain is almost precisely the same as that of the normal roller chain. (Because the pins are longer than those of normal roller chain, the common rupture strength is slightly reduced.)
For picking out a suitable chain, refer to “Selection of Chains” .
Once the support ambient temperature is higher than 80° C, specific heat resistant O-rings have to be used. In this instance, contact us for extra information and facts.
Connecting hyperlinks and offset back links
Two types of connecting links are available: clearance fit and interference match. When high power or sturdiness is required, use interference-fit connecting website link. Only 2POJ is obtainable as the offset website link for all sizes.
Sprockets
O-ring chain utilizes longer pins than a common roller chain. When using multiplex O-ring chain, the conventional sprocket for multiplex chains can’t be utilised.
Caution
O-ring chain isn’t advisable in applications the place solvents or other substances may perhaps assault “Nitric Rubber”. Unique material O-rings can also be obtainable for these problems: Please talk to us for details. Generally, “Nitric Rubber” is broken by contact with the following chemical components.
