ACETAL RESIN

The acetal resin is characterized by good mechanical characteristics, excellent resistance to wear and a low coefficient of friction. Used in the manufacture of hinge chain plates, it offers an economical alternative to our LFA material. Approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for direct contact with food products.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to + 80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

Color: gray,white

FRICTION LOW ACETAL RESIN OF FRICTION

This material offers a low coefficient of friction, high wear resistance and greater tensile strength. It is recommended for high speed applications and in the presence of large workloads. Approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for direct contact with food products.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40°C to + 80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

LFA color: light brown, blue
WAF/WLF color: white

SUPER PERFORMANCE ACETAL RESIN

It has a lower coefficient of friction than the LFA material. The wear of the plates and the elongation of the pitch decrease. This type of resin is suitable for high speed and low lubrication applications. Approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for direct contact with food products.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to + 80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

Color: dark gray

EXTRA ADDITIVATED ACETAL RESIN

It has a high lubricant content which increases its smoothness.
Suitable for high speeds especially with PET containers. Increases wear resistance. Approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for direct contact with food products.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to + 80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

Color: light gray

HIGH WEAR RESISTANT ACETAL RESIN

Top grade thermoplastic resin containing low friction aramid fibers recommended for transporting glass and PET containers without lubrication.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to + 80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

Color: dark gray, yellow

WEAR-RESISTANT COMPOSITE POLYAMIDE

This material is extremely resistant to wear in abrasive environments. It is especially used for transporting glass, mechanical components, sand, etc.

Operating temperatures:
from – 20° C to + 120° C (dry)

Color: black

ANTISTATIC ACETAL RESIN

Protects against the accumulation of electrostatic charges. It is ideal in the presence of an explosive atmosphere and when an electrostatic force can cause the instability of the transported product.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to +80° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 65° C (in water)

Color: black

REINFORCED POLYPROPYLENE RESISTANT TO CHEMICAL AGENTS

It is a special material resistant to acids and corrosion. Particularly suitable when a chain is exposed to aggressive chemical agents.

Operating temperatures:
from + 5° C to + 105° C (dry)
from + 5° C to + 105° C (in water)

The dimensions of the chains produced with this material are higher than those indicated in the drawing. to find out the dimensions refer to our Technical Department.

Color: white

EXTRA PERFORMANCE POLYESTER RESIN

This material has a very low coefficient of friction and excellent wear resistance; wheelbase extension and plate wear are reduced. It is suitable for high speed lines and for applications without lubrication.

Operating temperatures:
from – 40° C to + 125° C (dry)
from – 40° C to + 60° C (in water)

Color: green, white, black

REINFORCED POLYESTER RESIN WITH GLASS FIBER (available on request)
