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

Highest put on resistance readily available by sealing grease concerning pins and bushings
The durability of chain is dramatically improved due to the fact grease is sealed involving the pins and bushings by O-rings. The O-ring chain will be the most dependable model of your Ultimate Lifestyle Chain Series with its exceptional put on resistance even during the conditions or environments where chain maintenance is tough.
Advisable employs.
?Conditions in which regular chain substitute is required due to wear stretch
?Circumstances in which lubrication through the services is not possible
?In an natural environment with much soil, sand, dust, and so on.
?Applications that call for strength greater than that of a sintered bushing roller chain
Other options
?Reducing noise. (The noise degree is three dB lower compared to common roller chains.)
?Reducing vibration with all the friction created by O-Ring. (The energy reduction because of the friction is nearly negligible, since the frictional force between the pins and bushings is for typically in the applications.)
Collection of chains
The strength of an O-ring chain is almost the identical as that of a common roller chain. (Because the pins are longer than these of normal roller chain, the typical rupture power is slightly decrease.)
For picking an appropriate chain, refer to “Selection of Chains” .
When the services ambient temperature is larger than 80° C, distinctive heat resistant O-rings have to be utilized. In this case, contact us for more info.
Connecting back links and offset links
Two kinds of connecting backlinks are available: clearance fit and interference fit. When high strength or durability is needed, use interference-fit connecting link. Only 2POJ is obtainable because the offset link for all sizes.
Sprockets
O-ring chain uses longer pins than a normal roller chain. When utilizing multiplex O-ring chain, the standard sprocket for multiplex chains cannot be utilised.
Caution
O-ring chain isn’t suggested in applications wherever solvents or other substances may perhaps assault “Nitric Rubber”. Exclusive materials O-rings can also be out there for these situations: Please talk to us for particulars. Normally, “Nitric Rubber” is damaged by get in touch with with the following chemical components.
