Product features and benefits – plates

• Precision blanked profile optimises stress distribution
• Strict control of steel specification (including trace elements) to ensure very consistent heat treatment results
• Triple punch holing techniques maximises resistance to crack propagation and ensures controlled positional location of pin and bush for even wear
• Special coating gives improved corrosion and light acid resistance
• Connecting link plates are specially treated to ensure the same fatigue performance as the overall chain

Product features and benefits – pin and bush

• Optimised hardening to minimise wear but also prevent brittleness
• Unique bush bore profile to ensure full contact between pin and bush bore surfaces
• Three-stage pin surface treatment giving a unique combination of lubrication retention and extended wear life
• Exclusive 6-stage cold extrusion process giving concentricity and material grain flow, optimising shock load resistance
