CAN-AM CHAINS is a premier manufacturer of a wide variety of welded steel, specialty chains, bearings, sprockets and engineered plastics for the forest products and waste water treatment industries. With a reputation for performance and reliability, CAN-AM CHAINS include roller chains and welded chains, such as mill chains, drag chains, malleable chains and power transmission chains. Whenever chain performance means productivity, CAN-AM CHAINS Delivers!
Leaf chains are well-suited for any application requiring flexible, high-strength linkage for reciprocating motion or lifting at relatively low speed. For their low cost and long life, these chains are widely used for lift trucks, masts and other lifting as well as construction, mining machines and balance or counterweights of machine tools.
Built of interlaced plates held together by riveted pins. The chain nomenclature indicates the lacing combinations.
AL Series (Light Duty)
Consisting of link plates of the same contour and thickness as the pin link plates of ANSI roller chains in the same pitch. Mainly used for relatively constant, low, medium load with less shock.
BL Series (Heavy Duty)
Consisting of link plates with the thickness of the next larger size of ANSI roller chain. Chiefly used for medium load with greater shock.
300 Series Stainless Chains are assembled entirely from 300 Series (austentic) components. They have excellent corrosion resistanse and very low magnetic permeability but cannot be expected to have same wear resistance of our heat treated stainless chains.
For industries that required it, 300 Series chain can be considered ”non-sparking”.
* Chains are rollerless – dimensions shown is busing diameter.
Heavy Series chains, also built in accordance with ANSI B29.1, are designed using link plate material from next larger size chain. Heavy Series chain are not necessarily stronger than Standard Series chains, but the thicker link plate material provides an increase in fatigue resistance for those drives subjected to heavy shock loads, multiple stops/starts or reversing.
Though it’s referred to as strandard chain, it’s anything but. Our Standard Series chains, built to ANSI B29.1 standards, are manufactured to very specific requirements. The only thing standard about our chains are their ability to fit many standard applications. From industry to agriculture, our Standard Series chains are designed to last longer than any other manufacturer’s roller chains.
