DOUBLE CAPACITY

DOUBLE CAPACITY

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the application of double capacity roller chains designed for high-load environments such as mining, ports, construction, and cranes. These chains offer higher strength in a single strand, allowing for size reduction and space-saving benefits.
Specifications: The 'DC' and 'TC' type roller chains can operate on standard sprockets, reducing the chain width by about 25% and weight by about 5% compared to double strand chains. This results in cost savings and efficiency improvements.
Applications: These chains are suitable for industries like steel, cement, and heavy machinery, where high load capacity is essential. The double capacity chain provides nearly twice the breaking strength of conventional single strand chains by using twice the number of side plates.
Benefits: The chains offer space-saving and weight reduction advantages without requiring changes to existing sprockets. They provide increased strength, making them a preferred choice for heavy machinery manufacturers.
Performance Data: The document provides a comparison of breaking strengths for different chain numbers:
  • 80-1 DC: 149.0 kN
  • 80-2: 157.0 kN
  • 160-1 DC: 522.0 kN
  • 160-2: 550.0 kN
  • 240-1 DC: 1,286.0 kN
  • 240-2: 1,354.0 kN

DOUBLE CAPACITY-1

DOUBLE CAPACITY ROLLER CHAIN Higher strength in a single strand roller chains Roller chains are used in a wide variety of fields, including steel, cement, and heavy machinery as key components for power transmission. In applications requiring particularly high load capacity, it has been common to introduce double strands of chains in order to increase the breaking strength of the chain itself. Our “Double Capacity Chain,” is a product that achieves nearly twice the breaking strength of conventional chains despite being a single strand chain by consisting of twice the number of side plates as a single strand chain. Application for SHOCKED LOAD Mining / Port / Construction / Crane ・Size Reduction ・Space-Saving “DC” type and “TC” type roller chains can operate on standard sprocket. It also saves space and weight by reducing the width of the chain by about 25% and the weight by about 5% compared to a double strand chain. For suitable applications, the benefits of total cost reduction can be achieved. The “Double Capacity Chain” has been adopted by many heavy machinery manufacturers. Breaking Strength is close to double strands roller chains Existing Sprockets & Roller Chain Average Tensile Strength Space-Saving and weight reduction Or Increased strength without
