Iron chains - Import export

The attachment chain may only be used as an attachment accessory without edge protection if a 20% reduction in load lifting capacity is taken into consideration or if the nextlargest chain thickness is used. Otherwise, a secutex SKK hinged edgeprotector must be used. A “sharp edge” exists when the edge radius is smaller than the nominal thickness of the lifting chain. Further information is available in the “sharp edge“ chapter.

Even when securing the load, the lashing material must be protected from the “sharp edge“. Highvalue loads may not be damaged by lashing chains. The secutex SKKE simple edgeprotector is simply placed onto the chain via the slit on the reverse side, making it impossible to lose. The edgeprotector is light and flexible. Due to the low deadweight and flexible textile reinforcement, the edgeprotector can be attached easily and quickly to the load. Important note The secutex SKKE simple edgeprotector is not intended for prolonged use.

The secutex chain sleeve protects the chain (sandblasting) and the slinger. The protective hose is not well suited for the intensive use and transport of sharpedged parts due to the high surface pressure and the lack of reinforcement. Please note The chain hoses are designed for chains of quality class 8 that conform to standards.

You can rely on the cast steel chain C600 to deal with the toughest traction applications and move the heaviest loads. The chain’s simple yet robust cast steel design makes it an economical and highly resilient partner for the most rugged conditions and over long distances. Highlights • Breaking loads increased about 25% by using cast steel rather than cast iron chains • Alternative galvanized, zinc plated version for corrosion protection • Threaded pins in connecting link for easy closing and unclosing of chain • Both versions also available in plastic

The main characteristic of the magnetic particle clutch is the possibility to smoothly change the torque depending on the field voltage. To transmit the torque from the external to the internal rotor, specifically alloyed and highly abrasion-resistant iron particles are inserted into the particle gap. Depending on the electromagnetic field, these fine iron particles build magnetic chains and thus transmit the torque. The power of the field determines the stability of the particle chains and also the transmittable torque.
