Description
What is the pintle chain?
Pintle chain is a type of chain drive, in which the links are held together by metal pins which maintain the rigidity of the sidebar link along with retaining themselves in the links. It comprises a series of links sufficient in number to make it long as the desired length. They are used to transmit mechanical power from one place to another.
Features:
The chain consists of a series of identical links each comprising sidebars and a cylindrical barrel. The sidebars are flared in an outward direction to give a space between the flattened end portions and bars. The links are connected by pins having D-shape cross-section which extend through an aligned opening in the respective tubular portions.
There are several different classes of pintle chain, 400, 600, 700, 800, and 900 class pintle chains. Each class is used in different types of applications and are typically in stock.
400 Class Pintle Chain
400 Class pintle chains are manufactured with high-quality cast offset-style links and hardened steel pins. These chains are available from stock with standard cotters or can be supplied with stainless steel cotters for extremely abrasive applications. Typically these chains are found in agricultural applications, water treatment facilities, conveying and drive applications, forestry, grain handling, and many more! We also offer a full line of sprockets, attachments, and other accessories for 400-class pintle chains.
