Questions we hear
Can you match the chain we run now?
Yes. We build chain and parts to OEM specifications, regardless of who built the original conveyor. If you do not know who made your chain, send a sample, a drawing or a few measurements and we can reverse engineer it.
Do you make the sprockets and wheels too?
Yes. We make sprockets with standard, compensator or skip tooth profiles, plus shafts, pillow blocks, take-ups and wheels from 1½″ to over 8″. If your chain still has life left, we can supply just the components you need.
What do you need to quote it?
- The chain type or part number
- Pitch, and chain width or number of strands
- Attachments, rollers and material
- The length you need
- A photo, a drawing or the OEM name
