Summary

This guide will talk about Welded Steel Chain

Welded Steel Chain

Welded Steel Chain

Welded steel chains are made from individual links of steel that are welded together, providing a strong and durable connection. Unlike traditional chains that use pins or other connecting mechanisms, welded steel chains are often more resistant to wear and corrosion, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications. Welded steel chains are designed to withstand extreme conditions, such as high temperatures, heavy loads, and rough environments.

Welded Steel Chain Type

WR Welded Steel Chain
The WR Series welded steel chain is known for its heat-treated pins, which offer additional strength. 
WH Welded Steel Chain
The WH Series welded steel chains feature fully heat-treated components, which provide superior tensile strength and greater resistance to wear and tear. 
While both the WR and WH Series welded steel chains are designed for heavy-duty use, the WH Series welded steel chain offers better overall performance due to its higher tensile strength and precision. The WR Series welded steel chain, however, is typically more cost-effective and sufficient for less demanding applications.

To extend the life of conveyor and elevator chains, it is crucial to ensure the correct direction of travel for all offset sidebar cast or bushed chains without rollers. The chain should move with the open end of the link facing forward. This helps prevent frictional wear between the link and the driving sprocket teeth.

As shown in the diagram, if the closed end of the link leads, the link will rotate on the driving tooth as the sprocket moves. However, when the chain is in the correct position, with the open end of the link leading, the following link simply moves on its pin as the sprocket wheel turns.

Applications of Welded Steel Chains

Welded Steel Chain Application

Conveyor System

Welded steel chains are often used in conveyor systems and are crucial for transporting goods because they can handle the repetitive movement of heavy materials without breaking down.
