Metal Conveyor Belt Drive Components
Reliable drive components are essential for smooth and efficient metal conveyor belt operation. Chain links and sprockets are precisely matched to belt pitch, wire diameter, and operating load to ensure stable tracking, reliable power transmission, and long service life.
We manufacture standard and custom chain links and sprockets for new installations, replacement projects, and conveyor upgrades. Components are available individually or as a complete belt-and-drive package.
Applications: Food processing, heat treatment, electronics, glass manufacturing, and other industrial conveying systems.
Chain Links for Metal Conveyor Belts
Chain links are essential drive-edge components for metal conveyor belts, including balanced spiral woven, chain link, eye link, compound weave, ladder, flexible rod, and honeycomb (flat wire) belts.
Installed along the belt edges, they engage with drive sprockets to ensure smooth power transmission, stable tracking, and reliable conveying performance.
Materials & Specifications
Available in:
- Carbon Steel: General industrial applications.
- SS304 / SS316: Food processing and corrosion-prone environments.
- Alloy Steel: Heavy-duty and selected high-temperature applications.
Metal Conveyor Belt Sprockets
Metal conveyor belt sprockets are essential for smooth power transmission, stable belt tracking, and reliable conveying performance. Proper selection of sprocket pitch, tooth profile, and material helps minimize belt wear and extend service life.
We supply standard and custom sprockets for new conveyor systems, replacement projects, and equipment upgrades.
Custom Sprocket Specifications
Sprockets can be manufactured to match your belt model, technical drawings, and drive requirements.
Key specifications include:
- Belt pitch and PCD
- Number of teeth and tooth profile
- Bore diameter and keyway
- Hub length
- Material and dimensions
Compatible sprockets ensure accurate belt engagement and reliable operation.
Sprocket Materials
- Nylon PA6 / PA66: Lightweight, low-noise option for selected food-processing and general conveying applications.
- Stainless Steel SS304: Corrosion-resistant choice for food processing, wash-down environments, and selected elevated-temperature applications.
- Stainless Steel SS316: Enhanced corrosion resistance for chloride-rich and aggressive cleaning environments.
- Mild Steel: Cost-effective solution for general industrial conveying.
- Cast Iron: Suitable for selected heavy-duty, low-speed applications.
- UHMWPE / PEEK: Available for specialized low-friction, wear-resistant, or elevated-temperature requirements.
Material selection depends on operating temperature, load, speed, abrasion, corrosion, and cleaning conditions.
Applications
- Food processing and conveying
- Spiral freezers and coolers
- Baking ovens and heat-treatment equipment
- Washing and blanching systems
- Pasteurization and cooking lines
- General industrial conveyor systems
