16ASS-1/80SS Simplex Short Pitch Stainless Steel Roller Chain

16ASS-1/80SS Simplex Short Pitch Stainless Steel Roller Chain

The 16ASS-1/80SS Simplex Short Pitch Stainless Steel Roller Chain is a staple product in the world of mechanical drive systems. This type of chain is defined by its durable and resistant stainless steel composition, short pitch, and simplex configuration.

Structure and Composition of 16ASS-1/80SS stainless steel chain

The structure of the 16ASS-1/80SS stainless steel chain is composed of three primary parts:

1. Link Plates

The link plates serve as the basic structure of the chain, consisting of inner and outer plates connected by a pin.

2. Rollers

The rollers bear the main load of the chain, consisting of roller bodies and roller axles. The roller body cooperates with the boss of the inner and outer link plates, and the roller axle cooperates with the pin of the link plate.

3. Pins

The pins are the connecting components of the chain, joining the link plates and rollers together.

Material Characteristics of 16ASS-1/80SS Stainless Steel Chain

Our stainless steel chain is made of advanced materials. They perform very well in acidic and alkaline environments where direct contact with food. Chains will be exposed to water and at extremely high or low temperatures (-40 ℃ to +400 ℃) where corrosion resistance is required. When chemical resistance is critical, Reynolds stainless steel chains should be selected. It is manufactured from FDA-approved materials and pre-lubricated with USDA H1-approved lubricants.

• All parts are made of austenitic rust-proof steel
• All components are surface finish machined to eliminate stress risk factors
• Lubrication to improve wear performance
• Tensile strength is about 65% of standard carbon steel chain

Applications of 16ASS-1/80SS Stainless Steel Chain

The short pitch stainless steel roller chain finds extensive application across a myriad of industries such as food processing, chemical industries, and medical equipment manufacturing. It is particularly suitable for moist and corrosive environments, ensuring efficient operation even in these challenging conditions.

Stainless Steel Sprockets for Chains

Stainless Steel Sprockets for Chains serve as the backbone of a robust and durable chain system. The seamless interaction between these sprockets and chains is crucial for smooth and efficient mechanical operations. The corrosion-resistant nature of stainless steel ensures longevity, making it ideal for various applications. The precise engagement of teeth on the sprockets with the links of the chain guarantees reliable power transmission. This symbiotic relationship enhances the overall performance, reducing wear and tear while maintaining a high level of efficiency. In industries where reliability is paramount, the combination of stainless steel sprockets and chains becomes indispensable for seamless functionality.
