Materials:
- Stainless Steel: The most common material used, known for its durability, corrosion resistance, and suitability for food processing and high-temperature applications. Different grades like 304, 316, and 201 are used depending on the specific requirements for corrosion resistance and strength.
- Mild Steel: A cost-effective option used in general-purpose applications. Mild steel belts often undergo surface treatments, such as galvanizing (electric or hot-dipped), to improve their durability and resistance to environmental factors.
- Carbon Steel: Offers good strength and is economical. It’s suitable for various applications where high-strength and lower costs are important.
These materials enable the Chain Link Conveyor Belts to operate effectively in different environments, from high-temperature furnaces to food processing lines, ensuring both durability and functionality. The choice of material largely depends on the specific requirements of the application, such as resistance to corrosion, strength, and exposure to high temperatures or chemicals.
