Key Features and Benefits Plastic Profiles:
- Increased chain life
- Noise reduction
- Light weight structural parts
Traditional Steel guide profiles for transmission or conveyor chain lead to heavy wear on the link plates and rollers of the chain. In order to reduce wear and frictional resistance, the chain needs to be constantly lubricated. Dataplas offers an extensive range of profiles from stock or manufactured to a customer’s drawing.
Applications
- Plastic Profiles,
- Wear Strips and
- Plastic Chain Tensioners:
Applications exist in almost every industry where transmission chain, belt or link chain are driving equipment or delivering products. Highly engineered systems allow designers to short circuit traditional structured components when incorporating the range of profiles that have been developed to support and guide chain.
