About SLR Series Self-lubrication Roller Chains

The SLR Series Self-lubrication Roller Chains are a highly advanced design that combines the benefits of standard roller chains with the added advantage of not requiring lubrication after installation. These chains feature a special sintered bushing that is oil-impregnated, working in conjunction with a specially treated bearing pin to keep the chain lubricated during operation. One key advantage of these self-lubrication roller chains is that they can be easily interchanged with standard chains.

These chains are available in different materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-plated steel, which can be chosen based on the specific application and operating conditions. It is recommended to use these self-lubrication chains in environments with low shock loads and temperatures ranging between 10oF and 140oF. The SLR series contains rollers, while the SL series is rollerless and has bushings that are larger, enabling them to hold more lubrication.

Advantages of SLR Series Self-lubrication Roller Chains

There are numerous advantages to using self-lubrication roller chains. One of the main benefits is that they eliminate the need for manual lubrication, making them suitable for applications that do not require lubrication. This maintenance-free solution has proven to be highly beneficial for various industries, reducing downtime and increasing production. Additionally, these chains have corrosion-protection features, which help lower maintenance costs.

The self-lubrication roller chains from Ever Power have some unique features designed for long-term use. These chains incorporate a special oil-impregnated sintered bushing that extends beyond the inner plate, preventing dirt and debris from penetrating the chain. Chemically plated and tempered pins offer added protection in the bearing area. As a result, these chains can perform even in environments where conventional lubrication is impractical.

Usage Scenarios

The SLR Series Self-lubrication Roller Chains are suitable for a wide range of applications. They are commonly used in industries such as textiles, agriculture, and food processing. These chains are quieter compared to standard chains, minimizing noise levels in the working environment. They are also smaller and lighter, making them ideal for machines that require a significant amount of torque.

Product History

The concept of self-lubrication roller chains originated from the need to eliminate the manual lubrication process and reduce maintenance costs. The development of specialized sintered bushings and treated bearing pins revolutionized the design of roller chains, creating the self-lubrication feature and extending the chains' lifespan.

Product Classification

The SLR Series Self-lubrication Roller Chains fall under the category of roller chains, specifically designed for self-lubrication applications. These chains are part of the broader range of transmission chains used in various industrial machinery.
