Product Information
Rotary heavy duty cranked link chains chains were developed mainly for chain drive applications involving extremely heavy loads or particularly adverse operating conditions. Chains of this type are particularly resistant to violent shocks, wear and extreme operating conditions, and also have consequently enjoyed increasing achievement in a wide variety of applications in recent years.
For the most part, rotary chain dimensions are standardized under 
ISO 3512, ANSI B 29.10 and DIN 8182. One significant benefit of rotary chains is usually that their links are all constructed to the same design, making it easier to lengthen or shorten the chains when required. They have another advantage over regular roller chains - all links are subject to the same degree of wear.
ELITE rotary chains with cranked links are fitted with cotter pins. The chain plates can be found in naturally hardened steel or special tempered metal, according to the expected mechanical load. Chains put through extremely high loads are installed with induction-hardened pins, making them not only extremely tough, but also giving them the highest possible level of surface hardness.
