R160 R140 R100 R80 R2B R2 RUD mining chains New special grades of RUD chains - What has improved in our chain grades? The RUD round link chain is a central element of many conveyor systems. Thanks to its high-quality properties, it is generally the right and often the only option for handling individual tasks. The advantages over link cable are convincing, as Heribert Herzog, application engineer at RUD Ketten, explains: "Due to its design, the round link chain already has three-dimensional mobility. This not only makes it flexible in use and resistant to weather influences such as dirt, rain and ice, but also ensures automatic self-cleaning during operation. It is also insensitive to corrosion, remains flexible even when corroded and retains its unrestricted functionality." This leads toOptimized bending behavior Your benefitPerfect geometry - smoother running - optimum power transmission of the round steel chain when running over the wheels This leads tooptimal process control Your benefit: - a longer service life of the round steel chains - safe operation of your system This leads toOptimized deformation behaviour of the chain during calibration / optimum mirror formation Your benefitOptimized running-in behaviour - reduced wear / maintenance costs

RUD round steel chain R160 Tough - and double the running time. Double the service life, nothing less than that is what RUD offers its customers in the use of bucket elevators and ash removal systems - the new R160 round link chain has been optimized for a longer predictable service life. A specially melted special chain link significantly improves the wear behavior with the same breaking force. With a breaking stress of 400 N/mm2, designed for particularly rough and heavy-duty application scenarios, such as de-ashers with a high abrasive fly ash content in coal-fired power plants, it now offers double the standard service life of twelve months compared to other chain types and thus significantly increases the service life cycle of the entire system. The RUD R160 round link chain offers improved technical properties that contribute to greater efficiency and safety in operation. In combination with other products in the portfolio, RUD thus offers its customers the most innovative, tailor-made solutions.
