Excellent resistance to corrosion and heat that allows use in nearly all over the place
You will find two forms of Stainless Steel Chain: SS and SSK. The SS form has the highest resistance to corrosion and heat. Nevertheless, it really is created entirely of austenite stainless steel and as a result its tensile strength is somewhat decrease than 70% of a conventional roller chain, and maximum allowable load drops to a little more than 10%.
By using precipitation hardened stainless steel to the pins, bushes and rollers, the SSK kind has 1.five occasions larger greatest allowable load compared for the SS sort. Pick SSK when you have to have far more power than SS, or desire longer solution existence.
The two sorts have equivalent corrosion resistance.
Suggested uses
?Circumstances exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic
chemical agents, sea water and wastewater. Various chemical plats and water treatment plants.
?Disorders of high temperature
Heat-treating furnaces, dry furnaces, incinerators
Selection of chains
Stainless Steel Chain has reduced average tensile strength and optimum allowable load compared towards the standard roller chain.
Connecting backlinks and offset links
R connecting backlinks are utilised for Stainless Steel Chains #60 or smaller and C connecting links for #80 or bigger. 2POJ offset hyperlinks are used for sizes #25, and OJ hyperlinks for all other sizes.
Sprockets
Common sprockets for Stainless Steel chains may be utilized because the dimensions will be the identical as typical roller chains.
Caution
Being a common residence of stainless steel, 
anxiety corrosion
cracking and pitting corrosion is usually brought on by chlorine and chlorine ion (CR-).
The chart on proper exhibits the data of tests within the degree of corrosion resistance for every medium and will not ensure the effectiveness with the chains. Please think about the circumstances, temperature, level together with other total problem when making use of.
