Made of a simple link plate and pin construction, steel leaf chains is identified by a number which refers to the lacing of the links and the pitch. The chains have particular features like high tensile strength for each section area, that enables the design of smaller devices. There are A- and B- type chains in this series and both the BL6 and AL6 Series have the same pitch as RS60. Lastly, these chains cannot be driven using sprockets.
In roller chains, the link plates maintain a higher fatigue resistance due to the compressive stress of press fits, yet the leaf chain just has two outer press fit plates. On the leaf chain, the maximum allowable tension is low and the tensile strength is high. While handling leaf chains it is vital to consult the manufacturer's manual in order to ensure the safety factor is outlined and utilize safety measures always. It is a better idea to carry out utmost care and utilize extra safety guards in applications wherein the consequences of chain failure are severe.
Using a lot more plates in the lacing causes the higher tensile strength. Because this does not improve the utmost acceptable tension directly, the number of plates used may be restricted. The chains require frequent lubrication since the pins link directly on the plates, producing a really high bearing pressure. Making use of a SAE 30 or 40 machine oil is frequently advised for the majority of applications. If the chain is cycled more than 1000 times every day or if the chain speed is over 30m for every minute, it would wear really fast, even with continual lubrication. So, in either of these situations utilizing RS Roller Chains will be more suitable.
AL type chains are only to be utilized under certain situations like for instance where there are no shock loads or if wear is not a big concern. Make sure that the number of cycles does not go over one hundred day after day. The BL-type will be better suited under different conditions.
If a chain utilizing a lower safety factor is selected then the stress load in parts would become higher. If chains are utilized with corrosive elements, then they can become fatigued and break somewhat easily. Doing frequent maintenance is really important if operating under these types of situations.
