Standard Conveyor Chain
Conveyor chain, like tranny roller chain, can be manufactured to a number of different international standards. The main standards available are:
British Standard (BS)
This standard covers chain produced to suit the British market and markets in which a strong British existence has dominated engineering design and purchasing. The standard is centered on the original Ever-power Conveyor Chain design.
ISO Standard Chain
Chain produced to ISO Standard is not interchangeable with BS or DIN Regular Chain. This standard has a wide acceptance in the European market, except in Germany. Chain manufactured to this regular is becoming more popular and so are used extensively in the Scandinavian area.
Ever-power has intensive experience in the produce of conveyor chain. The Ever-power specification of conveyor chain provides taken many years in design and development to attain the optimum product.
To be able to ensure that is translated into product performance, we strictly control:

Heat Treatment
Processes

Ever-power Ultimate Reliability
The key to Ever-power chain reliability is consistency in design and manufacture.
Maximum chain strength and level of resistance to wear are attained by strict control of the material specification and through the use of state of the artwork heat treatment processes.
The constant overall tolerances of Ever-power chain make it well suited for conveying systems requiring precise alignment on multi-strand chain layouts.
Breaking loads surpass the minimal international standards.
Right chain selection is vital for the best possible performance. Ever-power’s experienced design team are always available to freely recommend on particular items and applications.
Standard and Deep Link conveyor chain is available to BS4116 Part 4 along with ISO 1977, with both Hollow and Solid Bearing Pins.
Extra Strength Standard Conveyor Chain
To check our standard range of British Standard Conveyor Chain, this extra power chain is more suitable for conveyor applications selected on ultimate tensile power (breaking load). Each chain is the same dimensionally as its normal counterpart, for example a supplementary strength 24000 lbs chain has simply the same measurements as a standard 12000 lbs series chain. This chain is utilized extensively in the conveying of animal feed and bulk food stuffs such as for example grain, maize, wheat and raw food mixtures.
Many of these applications use scraper type conveyor systems that as a rule have long center distances between sprockets. This kind of systems are sometimes slow moving with little or no shock loading. Get in touch with our technical sales staff for selection and applicational information.
