CASTING DETACHABLE CHAINS is the first malleable iron chain to be used extensively intended for industry-wide applications. It really is a light-weight, low cost chain obtainable in a full selection of sizes and can be used in a wide selection of applications where light and medium loads are carried at sluggish or intermediate speeds in relatively clean atmospheres. Constructed of one-piece, interconnecting links, Detachable Chain is easy to assemble and also to 
disassemble. Individual links are inserted in one part, at the correct position, as illustrated. When fully inserted, the link is Transmission Chain reduced to the same plane as all of those other chain and turns into an interlock chain segment until it is again elevated to the correct angle and detached.
Where simply no take-up comes in a chain application, correctly pitched coupler links, attached in pairs with pin and cotter, can be utilized to join ends right into a continuous chain with at the least slack.
Detachable Chain operates with the closed part of the hook riding following to the sprocket wheel. For drive applications, the direction of travel is in the direction of the hook; for conveyorand elevator applications, the path of travel is in the direction of the end bar.
The Detachable chain is produced inside our cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). Tensile strengths of Promal links range from 880 to 21,250 pounds. Two link designs are also available: Style •A” has a ordinary hook and fulfills standard services requirements; Style “B” includes a ribbed hook more suitable for heavy-duty services. All Detachable links are precision designed to regular chain industry specifications and so are interchangeable with other manufacturers’ chain links.
The pitch selection of our Detachable Chain, 0.902 to 4.063 inches, satisfies a multitude of detachable applications. A complete selection of attachment designs emerges. Brutaloy or cast steel sprockets are available for each detachable pitch size.
Material:
Detachable Chain are links cast of malleable iron or Promal (Duramal). It is furnished with carbon metal warmth treated pins and carbon metal case hardened bushings as standard. However, stainless pins and bushings could be provided when specific.
