Surface Treated Neptune Chain TM Complies with RoHS Complies with RoHS Patent Pending

One hundred years of fundamental technology, and the endless pursuit of new value. Tsubakimoto Chain has worked tirelessly on improving chain performance since our founding in 1917. We were the first Japanese factory to be accredited by Japan Industrial Standards (JIS) for roller chain in 1953. We dubbed that roller chain our first generation chain, and every decade since we have made major leaps in performance up to the 2006 launch of our G7 Series, the world’s highest quality roller chain. To celebrate our 100th anniversary, we will be launching our next generation G8 Series, the next evolution...

Lower Environmental Load Neptune chains use no harmful hexavalent chromium in their corrosion resistant surface treatment, nor any other hazardous substances such as lead, cadmium, mercury, or arsenic. Neptune chains are RoHS compliant. No Strength Reduction Uses a special treatment process that does not affect chain strength (part hardness). Neptune chains have the same tensile strength and allowable load as our standard roller chains. RoHS is a directive issued by the European Union limiting the use of specified hazardous substances in electronics or electrical equipment. Unit: kN{kgf} Ref.:...

Nursing Bath A stainless steel chain that would satisfy the required performance would be too big to fit in the space provided, so the user chose a Neptune chain, which has the same strength as steel chain. Slight amounts of detergent and other chemicals are used in the bath, so Neptune provided a much longer service life than steel chains. Used on a stacker crane for mushroom cultivation in a high temperature, high humidity environment. Standard chain quickly corroded and suffered wear, while the required stainless steel chain would be too big, so the user chose Neptune. This equipment turns...

Spiral Conveyor The center of the spiral conveyor rotates and lifts or lowers the conveyed goods. These conveyors are used in high and low temperatures, in contact with water or steam, in contact with chemicals, and many other environments. The drive requires a high tensile strength that stainless steel chains cannot provide. Neptune chain, with its corrosion and chemical resistance, solves this problem. This conveyor conveys food, so there is always a wash-down when different products are conveyed or at the end of operations. Chemicals are used during this wash-down, so we proposed Neptune with...
