The Secret Behind the Longevity of Stainless Steel Conveyor Chains

What is the reason for the long life of certain conveyor chains? And there is something special: those are made of material called stailness steel. Ssteel is a very hard type of metal that will not rust or break easily. Because of this quality, conveyor chains can last a few years without being replaced. JINQIU CHAIN is one such company. This choice has made their products notably strong and durable, a critical factor for businesses that have a reliance on these conveyor systems.

What is Stainless Steel?

304 — the stainless steel we use to manufacture JINQIU CHAIN conveyor chains. Type 304 stainless steel is made from a blend of iron, carbon and 8-10.5% chromium. The chromium is really critical because it makes the steel resistant to rust and corrosion. When chromium oxidation reacts with air, it creates a thin coating on the surface of the steel. This layer is what helps protect the steel from being oxidized over time. This means that stainless steel chains can continue to operate properly even in extreme scenarios where different materials may be the downfall.

What Makes Stainless Steel So Durable?

The second reason is that JINQIU CHAIN conveyor chains are durable and can withstand wear and tear for an extended period. Stainless steel is strong in weight bearing, yet resistant to everyday wear and tear. Stainless steel also can with stand high temperatures, which is why it is a suitable construction material for use in conveyor chains that may be subjected to heat while in use. Stainless steel is sensitive for conveyor chains because stainless steel is so strong, tough, and able to perform exceptionally well under heat.

True or False?

Many people think stainless steel is no stronger than another type of metal called carbon steel. This simply is not true. Carbon steel may be harder than stainless steel. But it is otherwise noticeably less strong, less durable in many scenarios than stainless steel. Stainless steel also resists rust and corrosion much better than other metals, making it an ideal material for use in harsh environments. This is because it is made of good quality stainless steel, which is what makes JINQIU CHAIN counting conveyor chains more stable and takes longer to wear out compared to other solutions.

Good for the Environment

Stainless steel conveyor chains are not only strong and durable but they also come with significant environmental advantages. The great thing about stainless steel is that it is recyclable. Stainless steel conveyor chains can also be recycled once they have reached the end of their working life, being melted down and formed into new products. This recycling process conserves natural resources since it decreases the requirement to mine and create new materials. In addition, stainless steel is easy to clean and maintain. Stainless steel conveyor chains require less cleaning, saving water and energy.

By this, we conclude by the stainless steel used by JINQIU CHAIN for its conveyor chains, which is highly durable and tough. Here lies the other example of why stainless steel conveyor chains are used, because they have a very long life span and long they tend to be the smartest investment for any business that uses conveyor systems in their jobs. Moreover, JINQIU CHAIN's conveyor chains are eco-friendliness since it is made up of a material that can be reused and doesn't ask for much cleaning and maintenance. Above all else, products at JINQIU CHAIN have durability because their construction entails top-quality stainless steel, ensuring lasting solutions that benefit your business.
