Rexnord began manufacturing drive chain in treating equipment in-house for better control the late 1800’s and has been a leader in drive chain and to precisely fit the heat treat needs of drive innovation since. Today’s chains are a product of over chain pins and bushings. a century of improved product design, testing and • Pins, bushings and rollers are manufactured to application experience. No one else in the industry exact tolerances. Sidebars and sidebar holes are comes close to our level of expertise. punched using the latest punch press technology to give superior fit and finish. • Selectively Induction Hardened (SIH) pins, available in many of our drive chains, afford you unmatched toughness and wear resistance. Ideal for tough, shock loaded applications. • Stocked in the largest network of warehouses in the industry. All backed up with extensive engineering and sales support. Smooth and precise, yet rugged. Our drive chains are able to handle applications from 1 to 300 plus horsepower. 30 DRIVE CHAINS � DRIVE CHAINS Wear life is directly affected by the hardness and case Ideal replacement for gearing, multiple strand roller depth of the wearing components chain, and belt drives • Selectively Induction Hardened pins (the pin with • Requires less precision and expense than gearing – the crescent-shaped hardened area) are heat treated center distances are more flexible and adjustable. only on the portion of the pin that experiences wear. • A single strand of Rex or Link-Belt drive chain can The balance of the pin is left in a tough state to frequently replace multiple strand roller chain withstand shock loading. drives, thus simplifying maintenance. And unlike • Chain rollers, sidebars and bushings are all heat multiple strand chains, our drive chains run on treated for wear resistance and strength. simple flame-cut sprockets. • Pins hardened by Rexnord’s advanced induction • Easily adjustable. The offset link design allows one hardening process feature extremely hard wear link at a time to be taken out or inserted. No surfaces and deep case depths as shown below. special connector links are required. • Lower overhung loads than belt drives due to the elimination of pre-tensioning. Rexnord chains run best on Rexnord sprockets Although our drive chains may be run on commonly available flame cut sprockets, they give better long term performance when matched with our sprockets. Our sprockets are flame cut and induction hardened to give hard, deep case depths. Most competitive sprockets have only a fraction of the case depth. Once the case depth is worn through, sprocket wear is rapid and chain interaction is affected, thus causing greater chain stress. CIH pins (right and bottom) offer very hard and deep case depths around the full circumference of the pin. SIH pins (upper left) are hardened only on the load bearing surface so shock can be better absorbed by the back of the pin. Proprietary induction hardening process gives every heat treated sprocket superior case depths and hardness. 31 DRIVE CHAINS � DRIVE CHAINS 3100 SERIES DRIVE CHAINS Longer life and durability than their ANSI roller chain equivalents The 3100 Series drive chains are designed with all the features of our standard drive chains. But, unlike the others, they operate on standard ANSI roller chain sprockets. They may also be used to replace ANSI roller chains of the same pitch. The 3100 Series chains handle the misalignment and contamination found in industrial applications better than roller chain. Rexnord has had excellent success with its Sealed Joint Drive Chains line of sealed joint elevator chains and is now using that technology to create sealed joint drive chains. Sealed joint drive chains are a new innovation. Please contact Rexnord to determine if this product is right for your application and if the chain you want is available. • Factory installed grease is trapped in the joint to reduce break-in wear and provide constant lubrication during the life of the seal. • Contaminants are sealed out to eliminate their abrasive or corrosive effects. Rexnord engineers have developed a proprietary method of sealing both the roller and bushing area of straight sidebar chains. Keeps factory lubrication in and contamination out! Patent pending. 32 DRIVE CHAINS � DRIVE CHAINS ® DRIVEMASTER ASSEMBLY TOOL The quick and safe way to assemble and ® ® disassemble Rex or Link-Belt drive chain Easily assemble and disassemble our drive chains with this portable tool. An optimum amount of interference fit has been used to assemble this chain at the factory – Drivemaster allows you to maintain this optimum press fit in the field. • Specify the chain or chains to be assembled and disassembled. • Each Drivemaster comes with one adapter set to accept the chain or chains you specify when ordering the unit. Different chains require different adapter sets. • Drivemaster can accept many other Rexnord chains such as welded steel and general engineered class chains. Again, specify the type of chains you anticipate working with. Easy-to-use Drivemaster assembly tool reduces down-time, maintains interference fit and eliminates cumbersome assembly/disassembly methods. Application Assistance and Wear Analysis • Rexnord engineers are always available for drive chain selection and application consultation. • Rexnord also provides drive chain wear and failure analysis. This service is designed to help you get the most our of your Rex or Link-Belt chains. Remember Direction of Travel! The general rule for direction of chain travel for offset drive chains is as follows: the narrow or roller end of the link in the tight side strand should always face the smaller sprocket, regardless of whether this is a driver Direction of Travel or driven. 33 DRIVE CHAINS � DRIVE CHAINS T G H A K D PITCH F OFFSET Properties TH Thru-Hardened CARB Carburized CIH Circumferentially Induction Hardened SIH Selectively Induction Hardened Dimensions are in inches.
