O-Ring Chain (LD)/X-Ring Chain (LX)

Highest put on resistance offered by sealing grease concerning pins and bushings
The durability of chain is dramatically enhanced given that grease is sealed involving the pins and bushings by O-rings. The O-ring chain would be the most dependable model of your Greatest Lifestyle Chain Series with its fantastic dress in resistance even within the conditions or environments wherever chain maintenance is hard.
Advisable uses.
?Circumstances in which frequent chain replacement is required as a result of dress in stretch
?Circumstances wherever lubrication during the support is not possible
?In an natural environment with significantly soil, sand, dust, etc.
?Applications that need strength greater than that of the sintered bushing roller chain
Other options
?Reducing noise. (The noise level is 3 dB reduced in contrast to conventional roller chains.)
?Lowering vibration using the friction created by O-Ring. (The power reduction as a result of friction is nearly negligible, since the frictional force between the pins and bushings is for usually in the applications.)
Selection of chains
The power of an O-ring chain is nearly the same as that of a conventional roller chain. (Because the pins are longer than these of standard roller chain, the average rupture power is slightly decrease.)
For picking an appropriate chain, refer to “Selection of Chains” .
When the support ambient temperature is greater than 80° C, unique heat resistant O-rings must be utilized. In this case, contact us for more information and facts.
Connecting back links and offset hyperlinks
Two varieties of connecting back links are available: clearance match and interference fit. When substantial strength or durability is required, use interference-fit connecting link. Only 2POJ is obtainable because the offset link for all sizes.
Sprockets
O-ring chain makes use of longer pins than a normal roller chain. When employing multiplex O-ring chain, the typical sprocket for multiplex chains can’t be made use of.
Caution
O-ring chain isn’t suggested in applications the place solvents or other substances may possibly assault “Nitric Rubber”. Unique materials O-rings can also be readily available for these situations: Please seek advice from us for facts. In general, “Nitric Rubber” is broken by make contact with using the following chemical components.
