Conveyor chain, like tranny roller chain, could be manufactured to a variety of international standards. The primary standards available are:
British Standard (BS)
This standard covers chain manufactured to suit the British market and markets in which a strong British existence has dominated engineering design and purchasing. The typical is centered on the original Ever-power Conveyor Chain design.
ISO Standard Chain
Chain manufactured to ISO Standard isn’t interchangeable with BS or DIN Regular Chain. This standard includes a wide acceptance in the European marketplace, except in Germany. Chain manufactured to this regular is becoming more popular and are used extensively in the Scandinavian area.
Ever-power has considerable experience in the manufacture of conveyor chain. The Ever-power specification of conveyor chain offers taken many years in design and advancement to achieve the optimum product.
To be able to ensure this is translated into product performance, we strictly control:

Ever-power Ultimate Reliability
The key to Ever-power chain reliability is consistency in design and manufacture.
Maximum chain power and level of resistance to wear are achieved by strict control of the materials specification and through the use of state of the art heat treatment processes.
The constant overall tolerances of Ever-power chain make it well suited for conveying systems requiring precise alignment on multi-strand chain layouts.
Breaking loads surpass the minimal international standards.
Correct chain Conveyor Chains selection is essential for the best performance. Ever-power’s experienced design team are always available to freely recommend on particular products and applications.
Standard and Deep Hyperlink conveyor chain is available to BS4116 Part 4 in addition to ISO 1977, with both Hollow and Solid Bearing Pins.
Extra Strength Standard Conveyor Chain
To check our standard selection of British Standard Conveyor Chain, this extra strength chain is more ideal for conveyor applications chosen on ultimate tensile strength (breaking load). Each chain may be the same dimensionally as its normal counterpart, for example an extra strength 24000 lbs chain has basically the same sizes as a standard 12000 lbs series chain. This chain is used extensively in the conveying of animal feed and bulk food stuffs such as grain, maize, wheat and raw food mixtures.
Many of these applications use scraper type conveyor systems that as a rule have long center distances between sprockets. Such systems are sometimes slow moving with little or no shock loading. Get in touch with our technical sales personnel for selection and applicational information.
