900 SERIES PINTLE CHAINS, sometimes referred to as “sugar mill” or “intermediate carrier chain” is utilized extensively in sugar mills. Multiple strands of 900 Pintle Chain, available with one or two holes per link, can be fitted with overlapping beaded carrier slats to create a continuous apron conveyor for intermediate carrier support.
The pin holes at the closed end of the 900 Class hyperlink are given with smooth bushings which are press-fitted into the links and keyed into place. The bushings are renewable and may be powered out and replaced when they become worn. 900 Class Pintle Chain was Drive Chain created with dual barrels, one on each side of the open up end of the links, to support double sprockets. The purpose of this driving method is to eliminate the possibility of material build-up in the sprocket contact area, which often causes the chain to leap the sprocket. Heavy ribs rigidly reinforce these traveling barrels.
Our 900 Course chain links, with tensile power from 22,500 to 32,500 pounds, can be found with large sliding areas to reduce chain wear and prolong chain lifestyle. Broad wearing areas and large cross sections team up to provide a considerable link which is manufactured according to manufacturer’s criteria and can perfectly replace links created by other manufacturers.
Brutaloy sprockets for 900 Class Pintle Chain are plentiful in 3.170 inches. 900 Class Pintle Chain should only be permitted to travel in a single direction; links should always run in the direction of their closed narrow end.
Available in cottered construction just, 900 Class Chain is usually assembled with T-headed pins which are locked into place by two lugs cast on the ends of the driving barrels to avoid pin rotation. Pin rotation during operation would result in wear on the inside of the bushing. Both the head of the pin and the cottered end of the pin are guarded by cast lugs on the barrel end of the links.
