Drop Forged Chain X458 4 Inch Pitch Overhead Conv | RFQ Sourcing Details

Because of the material makeup of rivetless drop forge conveyor chains, they are often found in lightly corrosive applications such as car washes, automotive industry, material handling, meat packing, overhead conveyors, poultry processing, sugar processing, and many more general conveying and trolley conveyor type applications.

Something important to note about this chain is just because it is an X458 conveyor chain does not mean that it is an equivalent to other manufacturers.

Though dimensionally the same, our drop forged chains use the best metallurgy sources, fully heat-treated and hardened pins, and is quality inspected through every process to ensure the end result is a premium long-lasting chain.

This is why we can rate our chain at an ultra high 48,000 LBS tensile strength and it is one of the most widely used X458 chains in the industry. X458 conveyor chain is apart of the rivetless drop-forge chain type within Engineer Class chains.

This is because the links of X-458 chain are manufactured from a forged steel-cast material and can be easily assembled as well as disassembled. Drop Forged Rivetless Chain - All SMCC drop forged chains are commonly used in overhead conveyor systems and automated material handling systems.

- SMCC drop forged chain offers increased flexibility. - All chain components are heat treated to achieve greater durability and extended chain life. - Precise pitch control and smooth bearing area for optimal wear life.

X458 Conveyor Chain Pictures: Because of its design, X458 conveyor chain is extremely easy to assemble and disassemble and it does not require any special tools to do so. This is one of the reasons why this chain is so commonly used in applications because of the ease in making repairs or replacing.

CHAIN STANDARDS Standards organizations (such as ANSI and ISO) maintain standards for design, dimensions, and interchangeability of transmission chains.

For example, the following Table shows data from ANSI standard B (Precision Power Transmission Roller Chains, Attachments, and Sprockets) developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).
