Overview of SS16A-U1 Stainless Steel Roller Chain with U Type Attachment

The SS16A-U1 stainless steel roller chain (with U-joint) is a high-quality chain designed for heavy-duty applications requiring precise and reliable performance. Constructed from durable stainless steel, it ensures corrosion resistance even in harsh environments. The robust roller chain structure consists of a series of interconnected links that transfer power from one component to another. The chain’s U-joints are also made of premium stainless steel, offering exceptional strength and durability.

Structure of SS16A-U1 Stainless Steel Roller Chain with U Type Attachment

The chain segments are an improvement on the standard roller chain, ensuring basic transmission function and strength. The chain segments are typically made of 304 or 316 stainless steel, and the pins, bushings, and chain plates between the links are also made of stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance.

The U-shaped attachment, made of stainless steel, is fixed to the pins or chain plates of the chain. It connects to the chain, providing a flat surface for bearing or conveying. The U-shaped structure better encloses and stabilizes the conveyed material.

Why Choose UK roller-coaster-chain.com Co.,Ltd Stainless Steel Roller Chains?

Our SS16A-U1 Stainless Steel Roller Chain with U Type Attachment stands out from competitors due to several key advantages:

  • High Strength: While typical stainless steel has the same strength as carbon steel, our stainless steel chains can reach 60%-70% of the strength of carbon steel. We offer materials such as 304, 316L (resistant to strong acid and corrosion), and 310S (resistant to ultra-high temperature).
  • Small Clearances and High Precision: Our chains have small gaps and high tightness, ensuring smooth operation and longer lifespan.
  • Premium Chain Plates: Our chain plates undergo a heat treatment process that involves controlling deformation or eliminating internal stress through pressure during the cooling process. This guarantees the size accuracy and mechanical properties of the chain. Additionally, the chain plates undergo high-pressure processing to increase their durability. The uniform thickness of the plates and the bright bands formed by punching twice ensure tight contact between the small tube and the pin, and high tightness, with all holes located in the center of the plate, without deviation. The chain plates also boast high flatness.

How To Select Sprockets For Stainless Steel Chains?

When selecting sprockets for SS16A-U1 stainless steel roller chains with U type attachment, there are several factors to consider to ensure efficient and safe operation. First, check the required speed (RPM) of the chain drive and select a sprocket with the appropriate number of teeth to achieve the desired speed ratio. Second, consider the chain pitch and select a sprocket with the same pitch to ensure good meshing between the chain and sprocket teeth.

Another important factor to consider is the sprocket material. In this case, it is recommended to use stainless steel sprockets with a stainless steel chain to prevent corrosion and improve durability. Our company offers a variety of stainless steel sprockets suitable for various sizes and types of chains, including pre-drilled bore sprockets, tapered bore sprockets, and guide bore sprockets.

Furthermore, the chain connection method needs to be considered, such as the U-joint in this example, and a matching sprocket should be selected. Our company also offers custom sprockets to accommodate specific connection methods.

In summary, selecting the right sprocket for a U-joint stainless steel chain requires consideration of factors such as speed, chain pitch, material, and connection method. Our company offers a variety of stainless steel sprockets to meet these needs and ensure safe and efficient operation.
