FB Chain provides the highest quality materials and manufacturing methods to suit the most arduous of conveyor chain applications - from the transport of biomass fuels, to the recycling industry, paper & pulp, cement, steel-work, the wood industry and food processing. Our conveyor chains, sprocket wheels and attachments are case-hardened to achieve the optimum balance between strength, durability and resistance to wear.
Leaf chain failure, unless it's the result of a sudden breakage due to operator error, shock load or overload, is normally a gradual process in which the leaf chain or roller chain elongates as it wears. The accumulative effect of leaf chain wear is a significant increase in the actual pitch of the leaf chain.
Through our work on British Industrial Truck Association (BITA) technical and ISO standards committees we've always been aware of leaf chain safety and the implications of leaf chain wear. For many years we stocked a plastic chain wear gauge which we gave away as a free product to customers. However, it quickly became clear that this flimsy plastic device wasn't fit for purpose.
The FB chain wear gauge was designed to specifically address the common problems previously associated with the 'Tape/Steel Rule' methods. Having studied all the other versions that were available in the market we noted that several of these, sold and distributed by major OEMs, used measured leaf chain lengths of between 12" - 15".
Discover ways to enhance the performance and service life of your safety-critical materials handling equipment.
