WEAR PERFORMANCE
RENOLD ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE
■ The performance of our chain is ensured by a programme of
continuous testing and quality audits.
■ Breaking loads exceed the minimum international standards
and ANSI standards.
■ Our specially formulated lubricants reduce initial wear, give
corrosion protection and ensure long storage life.
■ Renold Chain is highly fatigue resistant, giving up to four
times the life of many other chains.
■ Renold E-Z fit feature minimizes down time. Renold's unique control over pin/bush contact makes sure that wear life is better than
most other brands. Little initial chain adjustment is therefore required.

FORK LIFT TRUCK - LEAF CHAIN

RENOLD ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE


■ Renold Leaf Chain has been designed for: ■ Successful performance in this demanding industry
- High fatigue strength; has resulted in many original equipment
- Long service life; manufacturers and users specifying only Renold.
- Maximum resistance to wear;
- Compact design-optimum size/strength ratio. ■ Maximum efficiency, versatility and reliability has
been developed in partnership with these major
manufacturers of lifting equipment.

RENOLD ULTIMATE SPECIFICATION


The Renold specification has taken many years in design and development to achieve the optimum product. In order to ensure this is
translated into product performance, we strictly control:

Materials Heat Treatment Processes Fits Assembly Lubrication Proof Loading

Link plates are manufactured from high tensile alloy steel,


which gives optimum ductility whilst retaining maximum
strength. Link plates are hardened and tempered,
then stress relieved.

Pitch accuracy and pin hole diameters are maintained


during manufacture, offering precision performance
of the chain over many thousands of
operations.
Articulation of
inner links is improved by
close control of the pin and plate
hole dimensions, reducing friction to
a minimum.

Pins are manufactured from steel with a high yield to UTS ratio
for maximum resistance to bending. Pins are heat treated to achieve an
optimum surface hardness, ensuring minimum elongation of the chain due to wear.

All Renold Chain is proof loaded after final assembly,


complying with the highest international industry standard.

RENOLD ULTIMATE RELIABILITY SAFETY


■ The key to Renold Chain reliability is 'consistency’ in design ■ No leaf chain should operate above 98 feet per minute.
and manufacturing processes.
■ A safety factor of 7:1 is normal for fork lift truck applications,
■ Optimum ductility and maximum strength are ensured by for medium shock loading 9:1 and for heavy shock loading
controlling material specifications from all our suppliers. 11:1.

■ Manufacturing and assembly techniques are monitored by ■ Certificates of proof loading should always be requested for
SPC and conform to ISO 9000 (BS 5750). a lifting application.

■ Traceability of product and materials is assured by stamping NB. Never use a connecting link in any lifting application to join leaf or
and certifying each chain as specified by the international roller chain lengths together, in any manner that does not have the
lifting industry standards. truck manufacturers approval. Misuse of connecting links will render
your chain warranty void and subject the user to a safety hazard.

Renold Distributors will not supply connecting links for this purpose.

When chains are sold as assemblies, the connecting pins must be fitted
to the chain anchor and chain using the approved method outlined by
the truck manufacturer.

If you are unsure about the correct method, contact your local Renold
Chain Representative or the Truck Manufacturer direct.

CONVEYOR CHAIN DETAILS

CONVEYOR CHAIN TYPES


The precision conveyor chain, like transmission chain, consists of THE DEEP LINK CHAIN
a series of journal bearings held in precise relationship to each
other by constraining link plates.

Each bearing consists of a bearing pin and bush on which the


chain roller revolves. The bearing pin and bush are case-hardened
to allow articulation under high pressures, and to contend with
the load carrying pressure and gearing action imparted via the
chain rollers.

There is, for each strength of conveyor chain, a range of pitches;


the minimum pitch being governed by the need for adequate Deep link-type chains have sideplates with a greater depth than
wheel tooth strength; the maximum pitch being normally the normal chain plates; thus providing a continuous carrying
dictated by plate and general chain rigidity. When required, edge above the roller periphery. When lateral flexing of the chain
the normal maximum pitch can be exceeded by the use of is required to negotiate horizontal bend radii, coned bearing pins
strengthening bushes between the link plates, and suitable gaps are employed.
to clear the bushes must be provided in the wheel teeth.
Available in Hollow or Solid Pin versions.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS

Conveyor chain, like transmission chain, can be manufactured


to a number of different international standards. The main
standards available are:
THE SOLID BEARING PIN CHAIN
BRITISH STANDARD - BS

This standard covers chain manufactured to suit the British


market and markets where a strong British presence has
dominated engineering design and purchasing. The standard is
based on the original Renold Conveyor Chain design.

Chain manufactured to ISO Standard is not interchangeable


with BS or DIN Standard Chain. This standard has a wide
acceptance in the European market. Chain manufactured to this The solid bearing pin type chain, while having exactly the same

BS CONVEYOR CHAIN - EXTRA STRENGTH

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION HOLLOW


PIN
SOLID
PIN

To complement our standard range of British Standard Conveyor


Chain, this extra strength chain is more suitable for conveyor
applications selected on ultimate tensile strength (breaking load).
Each chain is the same dimensionally as its normal counterpart,
for example an extra strength 24000 lbs chain has basically the
same dimensions as a normal 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. Most of these applications use scraper type conveyor
systems that normally have long centre distances between
sprockets. Such systems are sometimes slow moving with little or
no shock loading.
Contact our technical sales staff for selection and applicational
details.

ROLL-RING

ROLL-RING® is a simple yet innovative chain tensioner made from a specially formulated polymer.
The unique design is based upon a simple toothed ring that can be fitted to horizontal, vertical
or diagonal drives in a matter of seconds, simply by placing it in-between the two strands of
chain. When the drive is in use, the ROLL-RING® deforms to an elliptical shape, due to
compression between the strands and completely absorbs any slack in the system.
ROLL-RING® performs the job of a tensioner and a damper in one, and is ideally
suited to applications where maintenance is difficult or impossible.

TECHNICAL DETAILS
®
ROLL-RING chain tensioners provide tensioning using:
• Static tensioning force from the elastic ring
• Dynamic tensioning force from the damping of the working
material

CASE STUDY: CHOCOLATE PRODUCTION


A major chocolate manufacturer was experiencing serious problems
with short chain life on a main production line and also had chain
tensioning problems, due to the inaccessibility of the chain drives.
Firstly, the short chain life (4-5 weeks) was overcome when the
Renold Engineer recommended a change to Renold brand, nickel
plated chains, which has led to a new chain life of twelve months
so far, and at time of going to press, the new Renold chains are still
fitted.
Secondly, regular downtime due to the failure of the previous
chains, was extended through the fitting of chain tensioners and
their ongoing adjustments over time. With a time sensitive mainte-
nance policy, the chocolate manufacturer looked for a solution to
speed up the tensioning of the replacement chain and ROLL-RING®
provided that simple solution. The new Renold chains had to be

maximum power capable of being transmitted since the load in
the chain will be higher.

4 SELECT CHAIN DRIVE

From the rating chart, select the smallest pitch of simple chain to
transmit the SELECTION POWER at the speed of the driving
sprocket Z1.

This normally results in the most economical drive selection. If the


SELECTION POWER is now greater than that shown for the
simple chain, then consider a multiplex chain of the same pitch
size as detailed in the rating charts.

USE OF GREASE

As mentioned above, the use of grease is not recommended.


However, if grease lubrication is essential, the following points
should be noted:

■ Limit chain speed to 787 ft/min


■ Applying normal greases to the outside surfaces of a
chain only seals the bearing surfaces and will not work
into them. This causes premature failure. Grease has to

and reduce their effectiveness.
ABNORMAL AMBIENT TEMPERATURES

For elevated temperatures up to 250°C/482°F, dry lubricants


such as colloidal graphite or MoS2 in white spirit or poly-alkaline
glycol carriers are most suitable.

Conversely, at low temperatures between -5°C/23°F and -40°C/F,


special low temperature initial greases and subsequent oil lubri-
cants are necessary. Lubricant suppliers will give recommendations.

with the chain edges. The spray pipe should be positioned so that Chain for lifting applications falls into 2 main categories:
the oil is delivered onto the chain just before it engages with the
driver sprocket. ■ Leaf Chain.
■ Bush/Roller Chain.

LEAF CHAIN
Leaf chain is generally used for load balancing type lifting
applications as illustrated below. They must be anchored at either
end since there is no means of geared engagement in the chain
itself.

SAFETY FACTORS

A safety factor of 7:1 is normal for steady duty reciprocating


motion, e.g. fork lift trucks. For medium shock loads, 9:1 and for
heavy shock loads, 11:1.

APPLICATIONS
EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE

An important factor to control in a drive system is the chain and


chaincase temperatures during operation. Depending on the
severity of the drive service, continuity of use, etc., special
attention to the lubrication method may be required.

Chain temperatures above 100°C/212°F should be avoided if


possible due to lubrication limitations, although chain can gener-
ally give acceptable performance up to around 250°C/482°F in
some circumstances. A way of improving the effectiveness of the
lubrication and its cooling effect is to increase the oil volume
(up to 4.5 liters/11.18 gallons per minute per chain strand) and
incorporate a method of external cooling for the oil.

approximately 20%.

This modification does not improve the tensile strength since the
pin then becomes the weakest component. However, heavy duty
chains with higher tensile strength are available. This is achieved
by through hardening instead of case hardening the pin, but
unfortunately this action reduces wear performance due to the
lower pin hardness.

used.

HARSH ENVIRONMENTS

In anything other than a clean and well lubricated environment,


the factor of safety should be adjusted if some detriment to the
working life of the chain is to be avoided. Low temperatures will
also decrease working life, especially if shock loads are involved.

The following tables give a general guide to the appropriate


safety factors for different applications for a target life of
8 000 000 cycles.
