Description

083 roller chain is one of the lesser standard metric roller chain sizes but is still used in many applications worldwide. Made per ISO and British Standards, the DUROCHAIN 083 chain will directly interchange with other brands! Our tier-one premium 083 roller chain showcases a slew of features that drive the latest roller chain innovations. More specifically, the DUROCHAIN 083 chain has a solid bushing and solid roller configuration, paired with unique processes done to each component to improve upon wear life, performance, and durability. Discover the new class of roller chains on the market today when you choose DUROCHAIN; there's a reason why we bring the "DURO" into a chain.

Features

  • Through-Hardened High-Strength Pins -
  • One of the most stressed components in a roller chain is the pins. The industry standard for premium chains is a case hardening process that provides a high-strength abrasion-resistant layer on the outer surface of the pin. This technique has been used for many years and does provide excellent strength and wear resistance until the hardness layer is worn. At DUROCHAIN, we use pins hardened to the core, called through hardened pins. This provides ample wear resistance throughout the life of the chain and increases strength.
    • Precision Solid Round Parts -
    Drastically improving chain wear life and performance of transmitting energy, solid bushings and rollers provide perfectly cylindrical bearing surfaces. Solid round parts require special manufacturing equipment that most factories will not make the initial investment in; however, the improvements in wear life and performance versus a chain with split round parts outweigh these costs in the long run. The issue with a split bushing or a split roller is when a chain experiences shock load or is used for some time, the split components will begin to deform, causing excessive internal wear and friction. All of our standard mild-steel DUROCHAINs use these solid round parts except hollow pin chains. Additionally, our bushings are made from alloy steel hardened to a specific HRC; the rollers are made from SAE steel and hardened to a specific HRC as well. We have found that these specific hardnesses provide the best wear life possible for the material itself.
    • Max Countour Sideplates -
    Precision made from steel alloy and hardened to an optimal HRC, our unique max contour side plates provide the highest shock load absorption and most extended wear life! The unique design adds additional material to the plate while maintaining the dimensional requirements of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). DUROCHAIN max contour side plates add strength and wear life to their accompanied chain assembly compared to the standard side plates used by other tier-one chains.
    • Quad-Staked Rivets -
    DUROCHAINs are equipped with high-hold quad-staked rivets instead of the standard dual-stake rivets used by other manufacturers. This improves the chain's ability to withstand shock loads and side thrust. The superior rivet ensures that the chain is held together with the utmost capacity possible, giving it more versatile capabilities than its predecessors.
    • Superior Plate Hole Preparation -
    We compared processes to other premium roller chain plate holes to see the most effective and best method for achieving the maximum holding power possible. Most manufacturers use a simple piercing method when creating these plate holes; some use piercing and shaving processes. DUROCHAIN link plate holes are precision pierced, shaved, and ball drifted. Combining all three methods produces link plates capable of superior holding power and maximum pin-to-plate contact.
    • Perfectly Factory Pre-Load -
    DUROCHAIN is factory pre-loaded to a specific amount that ensures absolute minimal chain stretch. By today's standards, almost all roller chains are pre-loaded to some extent; however, a specific percentage achieves the best balance of reducing stretch and improving wear life. Extensive research was done to ensure DUROCHAIN was factory pre-loaded to this perfect percentage. Additionally, pre-loading ensures all components are perfectly aligned post-manufacturing for optimal performance.
