Conveyor chain, like transmission roller chain, could be manufactured to a variety of international standards. The primary standards available are:
British Standard (BS)
This standard covers chain produced to match the British market and markets in which a strong British existence has dominated engineering design and purchasing. The typical is based on the initial Ever-power Conveyor Chain design.
ISO Standard Chain
Chain manufactured to ISO Standard is not interchangeable with BS or DIN Regular Chain. This standard includes a wide acceptance in the European market, except in Germany. Chain produced to this standard is now more popular and are used extensively in the Scandinavian area.
Ever-power has considerable experience in the produce of conveyor chain. The Ever-power specification of conveyor chain offers taken a long time in design and advancement to achieve the optimum product.
To be able to ensure that 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 resistance to wear are attained by strict control of the materials specification and through the use of state of the artwork heat treatment processes.
The consistent overall tolerances of Ever-power chain make it perfect for conveying systems requiring precise alignment on multi-strand chain layouts.
Breaking loads surpass the minimum international standards.
Correct chain selection is vital for maximum performance. Ever-power’s experienced design team are always available to freely advise on particular items and applications.
Standard and Deep Hyperlink conveyor chain is open to BS4116 Component 4 in addition to ISO 1977, with both Conveyor Chain Hollow and Solid Bearing Pins.
Extra Strength Standard Conveyor Chain
To complement our standard selection of British Standard Conveyor Chain, this extra power chain is more suitable for conveyor applications chosen on ultimate tensile power (breaking load). Each chain may be the same dimensionally as its regular counterpart, for example a supplementary strength 24000 pounds chain has basically the same sizes as a normal 12000 lbs series chain. This chain can be used extensively in the conveying of pet feed and bulk food stuffs such as for example grain, maize, wheat and raw food mixtures.
Many of these applications make use of scraper type conveyor systems that normally have long center distances between sprockets. This kind of systems are sometimes slower moving with little if any shock loading. Contact our technical sales staff for selection and applicational details.
