We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Stainless Steel Chains",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Metal chain resists corrosion from
Tsubakimoto UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Tsubaki NEP chain uses a combination of three layers of surface coating, with a highly resistant base layer that bonds a harder wear-resistant coating onto the chain bushes".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Roller chains resist corrosion from
Iwis-Flexon: "Iwis CR chains have a 50% higher fatigue life than stainless steel versions, along with a 30% higher breaking strength".
In April 2005, we covered the news from Tsubakimoto UK
concerning its Problem solving chains
- take a look at Solving the problem of roller chain corrosion
which says: "Robert Young of Tsubaki UK provides an overview of the causes and the cures for chain corrosion".
Take a look also at the news release from Victrex, Polymer lightens up hygenic conveyors,
as well as Chains cut theme park down time from Tsubakimoto UK,
and Non-lube chains for safer working environments from Tsubakimoto UK.
