Complete Stainless Steel Slat Top Chain Product Matrix & Specifications

To perfectly match your automated conveyor layouts, our premium stainless steel flat top chains are engineered in strict compliance with global industrial standards (ISO 4348 and DIN 8153) and are categorized into two major motion types:

1. Sideflexing Stainless Steel Flat Top Chains (Radius & Curved Layouts)

Engineered to navigate smooth horizontal curves and multi-flexing corner tracks without product tipping, vibration, or pulsing. Essential for continuous layout integration in modern bottling, canning, and high-speed packaging facilities.

• SS881 Bevel Series: Features standard beveled guide wings under the plate, ensuring positive mechanical retention within the curved conveyor corner tracks. Perfect for multi-tier cooling, proofing, and freezing conveyor layouts.
• SS881M Magnetic Series: Specifically engineered with flat edges optimized for magnetic conveyor tracks. The magnetic force holds the chain perfectly flat without physical tabs or bevels, dramatically reducing friction coefficient, system noise, and wear.
• SS881TAB Series: Equipped with precision-integrated TAB hold-down lugs. This positive mechanical locking mechanism ensures the chain remains securely seated in high-speed cornering, inclining, or declining conveyor segments.
• SS8857M Heavy Duty Series: A thickened-plate variant of the magnetic retention chain, purpose-built to handle extreme working tension and high impact loads in heavy glass bottling and canning lines.

2. Straight Running Stainless Steel Flat Top Chains (Linear Transport)

Built for high-capacity linear transport lines demanding maximum surface flatness, uniform pitch tolerance, and long-distance conveying durability.

• SS812 & SS815 Series (Standard Single Hinge): The globally recognized benchmark for straight-run slat conveyors. Provides an optimal balance of surface flatness and structural flexibility for unstable container transport.
• SS8157 Series (Heavy Duty Single Hinge): Features a significantly increased plate thickness compared to standard 815 series. Engineered to withstand high shock loads and aggressive chemical washdowns in heavy industrial packaging lines.
• SS512 & SS515 Series (Mini-Pitch 25.4mm): Specialized 1-inch short-pitch chains designed to facilitate smooth, ultra-tight dead-plate transfers between conveyor sections, preventing product stagnation or cosmetic damage.
• SS802 & SS805 Series (Double Hinge Heavy Duty): Designed with a robust double-hinge structure that distributes high working tension evenly across joint pins. The definitive choice for extra-wide conveyor lines, heavy crate handling, and automotive assembly parts conveying.

Critical Manufacturing Advantages & Quality Controls

1. Ultra-Precision Surface Flatness: Our stainless steel top plates undergo automated surface grinding and polishing treatments, minimizing product friction coefficients. This eliminates the risk of “bottle-tipping” or glass scratching on high-speed filling lines.
2. Hardened Pin & Hinge Geometry: Joint pins undergo continuous-induction hardening via our specialized mesh belt furnaces to perfectly match the cold-drawn tolerances of the chain links. This reduces initial chain elongation and wear-in stretching.
3. Optimal Fatigue Strength: Thanks to our Epson multipurpose furnace and premium progressive-die stamping, every single link delivers uniform metal grain flow, yielding high fatigue limits capable of tolerancing continuous cyclic tension.
4. Hygienic Edge Treatment: All conveyor chain plates feature deburred, radiused edges and an open hinge architecture. This prevents debris build-up and allows easy CIP (Clean-in-Place) sanitation, fully complying with global food safety standards.
