Stainless steel roller chain is widely used in industry and agriculture as the power chain of transmission machinery, such as bicycle chain and motorcycle chain, production line conveyor belts, grain combine harvester, agricultural tractors, and other equipment. Today we have compiled a maintenance guide for stainless steel roller chains to keep your chain in good working condition.

Regular inspection of stainless steel roller chain appearance and operation to ensure all components are intact. If damage or corrosion is found, it needs to be replaced promptly.

In addition, the tension and position of the stainless steel roller chain were measured to ensure that the pitch size met the set-up requirements. As needed, remove a ring and reconnect the stainless steel roller chain to adjust the tension.

The daily need to regularly check the chain and sprocket wear, because they wear may damage the performance of the machine. If the chain shows signs of wear, you may need to adjust the sprocket to improve transmission. If the chain wear elongation of more than 3%, should be a timely replacement chain, or easy to generate jumping teeth.

At the same time pay attention to sprocket wear, do not recommend the new chain with the old sprocket, this will accelerate the chain wear. When a pair of chains are installed, the coplanarity of the two sprockets is an important step in the maintenance of the stainless steel roller chain.

Regular lubrication is also a key component of stainless steel roller chain maintenance. At the end of the inspection, the stainless steel roller chain is thoroughly lubricated with light petroleum-based oils. Prevent metal accumulation of dust and moisture, avoid chain corrosion, to maintain the smooth operation of the chain.

Chain production of all the processes is around the above requirements for the use of the development. If you have any other questions about the stainless steel roller chain, feel free to consult us
