1. Maximum Allowable Load

Limit value that takes fatigue fracture and wear into consideration, assuming use under

lubricated conditions.
By determining a corrected chain tension based on a selection described in our catalog and
using the chain below this value, no anomalies will occur early in operation. However, this
does not apply when performance has deteriorated due to use under extreme environmental
conditions.

2. Minimum Tensile Strength

Minimum value determined by taking into account past breakage results.
When a given chain breaks under tension, it does not pass Tsubaki standards if it breaks under
a load lower than this value.

Special
3. Average Tensile Strength
Tensile strength determined from the calculated strengths of each component, taking into
account past results.
When tensile tests are performed, the value at failure may be higher or lower than this number,
and thus, this value is not guaranteed.

Wear Resistant/Heavy Load

4. Roller Allowable Load
Typical value that will not cause roller rotational failure or premature wear, assuming use under
lubricated conditions.
When selecting, include an extra margin of safety over allowable values according to operating
conditions (high speeds, heavy loads, long-term operation) and expected life.

Special Attachment
5. Attachment Allowable Load
Vertical load that an “A” attachment can accept. When using “K” attachments, calculate this
value by doubling the allowable load of the corresponding A attachment.
Depending on the shape and structure of attachments to be installed by the customer, force
may be generated that will cause A attachments to twist. Contact a Tsubaki representative if
you have any concerns.

6. Total Length Tolerance of Conveyor Chain

Accessories
Related Products &

The length tolerance of any individual size when subjected to a measured load is –0.25% to
+0.25% of the reference length. The reference length is calculated by multiplying the reference
pitch (P) by the number of links.

5. Double row chains

Double row chains (two strands of chain with scrapers, stay pins, etc. attached) are counted as a single unit.
One pitch of chain equals one link.

Example 1: Scraper every 2 links, 8 links = 8 links x 1 strand as shown in the figure below

Note: Indicate whether the scraper is to be shipped connected or separate.

Selection and Handling

Example 2: Stay pin (ST) every link, 8 links = 8 links x 1 strand as shown in the figure below

Note: Chains with stay pins (ST) are usually shipped with the stay pins separate.
Even when shipped disassembled, one pitch of double row chain is still one link.

Coal fly ash, a highly abrasive constituent of cement, has
seen increasing use in recent years. In order to extend the
wear life of our Fly Ash Conveyor Chain, we further improved
our popular Anti-Wear Series and implemented a special

are added to a base conveyor chain to allow for direct

conveyance on the chain links.
1. Tsubaki also manufactures Deep Link Conveyor Chain with
R rollers from Bearing Roller Conveyor Chains. These rollers
will give the chain a low coefficient of friction and a higher
roller allowable load, allowing users to go down two chain
sizes. (It will be necessary to check allowable tension.)
2. Tsubaki can also manufacture Deep Link Conveyor
Chains with top plates.
3. Tsubaki can manufacture Deep Link Chains to any

screens, such as those found in water intakes at thermal power

plants. The pins, bushes, and rollers use tempered SUS400 series
stainless steel, giving them the corrosion and wear resistance
necessary to operate continuously in both seawater and air. There
are special plastic bearings in the roller inner diameter, allowing
for lube-free operation in seawater for easy maintenance.

Double Plus Conveyor Chain Roller Type: VR

1. Conveying
Corrosion Resistant
General Use/Heavy Duty/

The frictional force between the large and small diameter rollers
cause them to rotate in unison, and the difference in the roller
diameters allow for items to be conveyed at 2.3 times the
speed of the base chain.
2. Accumulating
As there is a braking force acting on the large diameter
roller, slip occurs between the large and small diameter
rollers, allowing for free flow conveyance.
3. Energy Savings/Lower Costs
The small coefficient of friction means low required
energy, reducing necessary chain size and costs.
Industry Specific Products

4. Longer Life
Chain speed is 1/2.3 with a large roller allowable load, giving the
chain over twice the life of standard chains. (Compared to Top

Bearing Roller Conveyor Chain

Corrosion Resistant
General Use/Heavy Duty/

Tsubaki's Bearing Roller Conveyor Chain, with its unique

cylindrical bearings within the rollers, is able to provide
the high efficiency, reduced costs, suppression of stick-
slip phenomenon, and longer roller/rail life that existing
chains cannot.

◆ Functions and Benefits of Bearing Rollers

Bearing Roller Functions Bearing Roller Benefits
Standard conveyor chain Bearing roller
conveyor chain 1. Reduces chain running 1. Reduces chain tension and
Special

resistance (1/3 of standard required motor capacity

conveyor chain) 2. Prevents stick-slip
2. Greatly increases roller phenomenon during long-
allowable load length/low-speed conveyance
3. Reduces rail wear and stops
poor roller rotation
4. Increases wear life (bush-roller)

Shoulder Bush Conveyor Chain Series: DB

This chain has the same base outer dimensions as a

Corrosion Resistant
General Use/Heavy Duty/

standard conveyor chain, but the larger bush diameter

increases the roller allowable load, allowing for
conveyance of heavier objects. The bush also serves as
a measure against outer diameter wear. The chain's
coefficient of running friction is 0.10 (lubricated) or 0.18
(unlubricated).

Toughroller (Endless Rollers)

Corrosion Resistant
General Use/Heavy Duty/
Outstanding performance when conveying, transferring,
or moving heavy items
Consisting of a frame and endless rollers, the endless rollers (roller, pin, and link plates) wrap around a center plate on the
frame. In contrast to a standard bearing, the operating principle behind Toughroller's operation is that the center plate is
the inner ring, the rollers are the balls, the link plates and pins are the ball cage, and the contact surface is the outer ring.

Construction Applications

Top Plate 1. Transferring/conveying heavy items.

Special
2. When items are conveyed only infrequently and do not
warrant conveyor use.
3. When efficient use of space is important.
4. As a slide guide for long items.

Notes on Using Axle and Attachment Bearing Rollers

1. Allowable load values are determined by roller-rail wheel contact pressure or bearing rotation strength. Use rails with
SS400 or stronger material. Do not use bearing rollers with curved rails.
Accessories
Related Products &

2. For lubed specifications, lack of lubrication will cause poor rotation. Use water resistant specifications in environments
where bearing roller may come in contact with water.
3. Be aware that precision is much coarser than with cam followers.
4. Do not use in acidic or alkaline environments.
Water resistant specifications (SUS400 series parts) may rust in certain usage environments.
5. Due to the small clearance between axle and hole, do not chamfer the attachment hole for Axle Bearing Rollers.
Be sure not to exceed the maximum screw tightening torque when attaching the nut.
6. Do not allow roller to come into contact with severe shock
Selection and Handling

7. This product does not come equipped with a brake. Consider installing one on the equipment side.
8. When re-lubricating lubed specifications, be sure to drip a few drops at a time between the roller and spacer on either
side. Once lubrication has degraded, lube every 1 to 3 months with ISO VG100–150 {SAE30–40} oil.
9. Rotational resistance of bearings and spacers will increase if worn. Be sure to replace as necessary. Use the following
to determine usage limit.
· Over 0.5mm of play between roller and bearing.
· When resin spacer has worn away.
10. All parts are coated with an anti-rust agent before shipment.

pump. Once lubrication runs out air will enter the pump, requiring the and inner plate (pin-bush)
air to be pumped out before lubrication can begin again.

load selection method and choose the chain with more leeway.

2) When a conveyor consists of multiple strands of chain, correct the number of strands in the above formula to allow for
uneven loading of the chain.

 For Safe Use
Warning Observe the following points to prevent hazardous situations.

● Do not use chains or accessories (peripheral devices and parts) for anything other than their original purpose.
● Never perform additional work on the chain.
・Do not anneal the various parts of the chain.
・Do not clean the chain with acids or alkalis, as they may cause cracking.
・Never electroplate the chain or its parts, as this may cause cracking due to hydrogen embrittlement.
・Do not weld the chain, as the heat may cause cracking or a reduction in strength.
・When heating or cutting the chain with a torch, remove the links immediately adjacent and do not use them again.
● When there is a need to replace a damaged (fractured) portion of a chain, always replace the whole chain with a new product rather than replacing
only the damaged or fractured portion.
