Nickel Plated Heavy Series Chain

Heavy Series roller chain utilizes thicker linkplates for increased fatigue resistance in applications involving heavy shock loads, multiple starts and stops or reversing motions. By taking it a step further and adding nickel plating to the original carbon steel, this gives further protection in high humidity or washdown environments. Nickel Plated Heavy Series chain is designed to fit a wide variety of standard applications while offering superior wear and fatigue performance.

Features & Benefits

  • Materials

    The Diamond Difference begins with raw materials that meet exacting standards for metal grade, mechanical properties, carbon and alloy content to ensure minimization of impurities that impact tensile and fatigue strength.

  • Fabrication

    Diamond designs each component to exacting dimensional standards for optimal performance. What makes this chain “corrosion resistant?” To create Nickel Plated Heavy Series chain, we add nickel plating to carbon steel to provide extra protection against high-corrosion environments.

  • Heat Treatment

    Strict control of atmosphere, time and temperature optimize the material properties – increasing strength, durability and wear resistance.

  • Shot Peening

    Proprietary shot peening equipment was developed specifically to ensure consistent intensity and coverage of components. Shot peening adds a layer of compressive stress that helps components resist fatigue failure when exposed to repeated high loads.

  • Lubrication

    We use a proprietary lubrication process on all lubricated chains for enhanced corrosion protection and extended wear life.

  • Preloading

    Following assembly, all chains are preloaded to firmly seat the pins and bushings. This is to reduce initial run-in and extend the wear life of the chain.
