CASTING DETACHABLE CHAINS may be the first malleable iron chain to be used extensively pertaining to industry-wide applications. It is a lightweight, low priced chain available in a full selection of sizes and can be utilized in a wide variety of applications where light and medium loads are carried at slow or intermediate speeds in fairly clean atmospheres. Constructed of one-piece, interconnecting links, Detachable Chain is simple to assemble and also to disassemble. Individual links are inserted from one part, at the proper angle, as illustrated. When completely inserted, the link is lowered to the same plane as the rest of the chain and turns into an interlock chain segment until it really is again raised to the correct position and detached.
Where simply no take-up comes in a chain application, properly pitched coupler links, attached in pairs with pin and cotter, can be utilized to become listed on ends right into a continuous chain with at the least slack.
Detachable Chain operates with the closed side of the hook riding next to the sprocket wheel. For drive applications, the path of travel is certainly in the direction of the hook; for conveyorand elevator applications, the path of travel is certainly in the direction of the finish bar.
The Detachable chain is produced inside our cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). Tensile strengths of Promal links range between 880 to 21,250 pounds. Two link designs are also offered: Style •A” has a simple hook and fulfills standard service requirements; Style “B” has a ribbed hook more 
suitable for heavy-duty assistance. All Detachable links are Stainless Steel Chain precision designed to regular chain industry specs and are interchangeable with additional manufacturers’ chain links.
The pitch selection of our Detachable Chain, 0.902 to 4.063 inches, satisfies a multitude of detachable applications. A full selection of attachment designs emerges. Brutaloy or cast metal sprockets can be found for every detachable pitch size.
Material:
Detachable Chain are links cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). It really is furnished with carbon steel heat treated pins and carbon metal case hardened bushings as regular. However, stainless steel pins and bushings could be provided when specified.
