Built to ANSI B29.3 standards, Diamond Double-Pitch Conveyor chain utilizes oval contour linkplates. These are produced with either standard or oversized rollers. Double-Pitch Conveyor chain can be found on conveyors of all shapes and sizes, often accompanied by one or more of our many attachments.
Double-Pitch Conveyor Chain
Features & Benefits
Materials
The Diamond Difference begins with raw materials that meet exacting standards for metal grade, mechanical properties, carbon and alloy content to ensure minimization of impurities that impact tensile and fatigue strength.
Fabrication
Diamond designs each component to exacting dimensional standards for optimal performance. Precision ground pins, seamless rollers and extruded solid bushings work in concert with linkplates created using a proprietary multi-stage process to maximize the bearing area and thus enable the superior performance of Diamond® Double-Pitch Conveyor roller chain. Double-Pitch Conveyor chain features oval contour linkplates that are produced with either standard or oversized rollers.
Heat Treatment
Strict control of atmosphere, time and temperature optimize the material properties – increasing strength, durability and wear resistance.
Shot Peening
Proprietary shot peening equipment was developed specifically to ensure consistent intensity and coverage of components. Shot peening adds a layer of compressive stress that helps components resist fatigue failure when exposed to repeated high loads.
Lubrication
We use a proprietary lubrication process on all lubricated chains for enhanced corrosion protection and extended wear life.
Preloading
Following assembly, all chains are preloaded to firmly seat the pins and bushings. This is to reduce initial run-in and extend the wear life of the chain.
