“H” CLASS Refuse Drag Chains: A Reliable Solution for Conveying Abrasive Materials
“H” CLASS Refuse Drag Chains are widely used for the conveying of sawdust, wooden chips, pulp, garbage, tankage, ashes, and other abrasive materials through steel or wooden troughs. The chains are suitable for moderate-speed handling due to their large, wide opening area, which provides considerable capacity. The chains’ front face is flat, providing a broad area to push material along the trough and keep the chain from riding over the top of the material. The rounded inner aspect of the barrel is carefully shaped to create excellent sprocket contact. Sidebars are reinforced with Drive Chain wearing shoes, which provide additional wearing surface and stiffening for the link.
