Constructed to ANSI B29.3 standards, Diamond® Double-Pitch Conveyor chain consists of oval contour linkplates, standard or oversized rollers. These chains can be found on conveyors in a wide array of industries, from packaging to food and beverage. By adding ACE (Anti-Corrosion Exterior) plating to carbon steel, this gives additional protection in high humidity, salt water or washdown environments.
ACE Plated Double-Pitch Conveyor Chain
Features & Benefits
Materials
The Diamond Difference begins with raw materials that meet exacting standards for metal grade, mechanical properties, carbon and alloy content to ensure minimization of impurities that impact tensile and fatigue strength.
Fabrication
Diamond designs each component to exacting dimensional standards for optimal performance. What makes this chain “corrosion resistant?” To create ACE Double-Pitch Conveyor chain, we add ACE plating to carbon steel to provide extra protection against high-corrosion environments.
Heat Treatment
Strict control of atmosphere, time and temperature optimize the material properties – increasing strength, durability and wear resistance.
Shot Peening
Proprietary shot peening equipment was developed specifically to ensure consistent intensity and coverage of components. Shot peening adds a layer of compressive stress that helps components resist fatigue failure when exposed to repeated high loads.
Lubrication
We use a proprietary lubrication process on all lubricated chains for enhanced corrosion protection and extended wear life.
Preloading
Following assembly, all chains are preloaded to firmly seat the pins and bushings. This is to reduce initial run-in and extend the wear life of the chain.
Applications
