Double Guard Chain (WG)

by | Dec 24, 2020 | engineeringchain

Steel chain approaching stainless steel chain in corrosion resistance
Double Guard Chain is highly corrosion resistant with coating of double layers of two diverse materials. In comparison with the High-Guard Chain, it exhibits nearly doubled corrosion resistance while in the salt water spray check, and may be utilized in mild alkaline and mild acidic conditions.
Options
?With its improved corrosion resistance, it can be used in circumstances exactly where High-Guard or Rustless Chains can not be employed, and in some cases in some disorders exactly where only stainless steel could be employed.
?The coating includes environmentally friendly non-chrome materials. To comply using the EU’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, hexavalent chromium is just not used.
Suggested makes use of
?Ailments that demand both strength and corrosion resistance
Multilevel parking facility, moving decks, cleansing lines etc. ?Conditions exposed to rain or sea water
Machines installed outdoors, amusement machines
?Conditions exposed to mild alkaline and mild acidic chemical agents, sea water or wastewater. Numerous chemical plants and water therapy plants.
Selection of chains
Double Guard Chain has an equivalent power to a regular roller chain.
Connecting links and offset links
R connecting links are employed for high-guard chains #60 or smaller and C connecting backlinks for #80 or greater, and OJ and 2POJ are utilized as offset links.
Sprockets
Normal sprockets for high-guard chains may be used since the dimensions would be the same as regular roller chains.
Caution
Use stainless steel chains should the chains will can be found in direct make contact with with meals.
Double Guard chain won’t have a gloss such as the nickel coated chain.
Unless of course not so specified through the customer, chains are coated with grease and shipped. If achievable, oil the spaces in between pins and bushes and bushes and rollers. Please use the recommended lubrication oil for your maintenance with the chain as oiling with grease may cause flexion failure.
