RUD CHAINS LTD

AL Series leaf chains are manufactured to ANSI leaf chain specification dimensions and are considered today's "lighter" duty of leaf chains. AL leaf chains were the first series of ANSI leaf chains and are still used in many lifting applications today due to the space-saving high strength lifting design and nature of this chain. What puts our leaf chain selection in another class of its own is the use of high-strength hardened pins, heat-treated plates, and shot-peened components. The chain is also pre-tensioned at the factory to reduce flex during initial installation. Typically leaf chains are stocked in 10ft boxes, 50ft reels and 100ft reels but we also provide cut to length and custom leaf chains.

Linear guideways, also known as linear motion bearings or linear slides, are mechanical components designed to facilitate linear motion in machinery and equipment.

Open conveyor systems are susceptible to contamination from foreign objects or small components, which can lead to potential belt failures or damage to the items being transported. Transfer chains designed for conveyor systems act as a preventative measure, preventing costly breakdowns before they occur. These Transfer (TF) chains are completely sealed on three sides thanks to wear-resistant, durable snap-on plastic attachments. These attachments maintain coverage even when the chains pass over the sprockets.

No other type of chain is as versatile as conveyor chains and our product range reflects this versatility. Bushing conveyor chains, roller conveyor chains, hollow pin chains, scraper chains, special conveyor chains for the paper industry and rotating chains are just some of the conveyor chains we can supply. Our product range also includes a wide range of special conveyor chains with straight, curved or U-shaped attachments and much more.
