Long life for self-lubricating chain
When the environment or location of a roller chain drive is such that regular lubrication is not possible or practical, Duralube self-lubricating chain can offer a long-lasting solution.
Contoured link plates stabilise stress and load for increased fatigue life.
High carbon pins provide increased load carrying capability for 15% higher tensile rating and longer wear.
Excel chain is preloaded, a process that is done to align the various chain components, reducing initial run-in for precise pitch, eliminating tight joints and reducing maintenance time.
The Excel range is available in single and multiple strands from 9.53 to 31.8mm pitch.
Typical applications of Excel British Standard roller chain include industrial manufacturing, textiles, agriculture, construction, materials handling and automotive.
