Roller Chain and Links

Lightweight ANSI Roller Chain

This acetal chain is suitable for general purpose applications.

Extended-Life Lightweight ANSI Roller Chain and Links

Plastic bushings as well as stainless steel pins and outer side plates give this chain a longer service life than other lightweight chain.

Chemical-Resistant Lightweight ANSI Roller Chain

Commonly used in chemical manufacturing, paper pulping, and waste processing, this chain is made of PVDF.

Lightweight Miniature Roller Chain

This acetal plastic chain is light, quiet, and nonconductive. Its links snap together, so you don't need connecting links.

Center-Channel Roller Chain Guides

These guides align chain more precisely than open-channel guides.

Open-Channel Roller Chain Guides

Minimize friction, reduce noise, and prolong the life of your roller chain. Guides can be cut to the exact length you need.

Deep-Channel Roller Chain Guides

Also known as captured guides, deep-channel guides prevent chain from slipping off track.

ANSI Roller Chain Wear-Indicating Rulers

Place these plastic rulers on links to measure chain wear.

Tensioners for Chain and Belt Drives

Floating Roller Chain Tensioners

Mount these tensioners directly onto your chain drive. They have adjustable straps that take up slack and apply constant tension.

Roller Chain Tensioning Rings

Install these rings between strands of chain to absorb slack without the need for realignment, lubrication, or tools—good for use in confined spaces where maintenance may be difficult.

Channel-Guided Roller Chain Tensioners

These tensioners range in height from 5 15/32" to 7 25/32".

Low-Profile Channel-Guided Roller Chain Tensioners

At less than 4" in height, these tensioners are good for use on low-clearance drives.

Ultra-Low-Profile Channel-Guided
Roller Chain Tensioners

Able to fit in tight spots, these tensioners are less than 3" tall.

Corrosion-Resistant Guards for Chain and Belt Drives

Made of ABS plastic, these plastic guards won’t rust, and they absorb impact from chain and belt drives.

Chain Barriers

Build-Your-Own Chain Barriers

Mix-and-match posts and chain to create a barrier that suits your needs.

Magnetic-Mount Rings for Chain Barriers

Instead of a post, use these rings to hang chain between metal surfaces.

Connecting Chain Links for Chain Barriers

Links split in half and snap back together. Use to connect two lengths of chain.

S-Hooks for Chain Barriers

Chain Barriers

Remove the tops on these three-post barriers to fill the bases with sand or pea gravel for added stability.

Sign Holders for Chain Barriers

Belt Conveyors

Conveyor Chain Belting

Also known as sprocket-driven conveyor belting, sprockets drive the belt.

Conveyor Wear Strip Rivets

Rivets attach plastic wear strips to the conveyor frame.

Wear Strips for Conveyor Chain Belts

Attach these strips to conveyor frames to reduce friction and abrasion on chain belts.

Sprockets for Conveyor Chain Belts

Sprockets transmit power to drive belting.

Idler Wheels for Conveyor Chain Belts

Idler wheels keep the belt moving and prevent sagging.

Sprockets for Food Industry
Cut-Resistant Conveyor Belting

Choose these sprockets when you need to expand your Ammeraal Beltech MPB conveyor line or replace its worn sprockets.

Cable and Hose Carriers

Lay-In Snap-Together Open Cable and Hose Carriers

The hinged snap-on crossbars open for access at any point along the carrier's length so you can lay in the cable and hose, rather than threading it through.

Feed-Through Snap-Together
Open Cable and Hose Carriers

Thread cable and hose through the entire length.

Low-Vibration Snap-Together
Open Cable and Hose Carriers

Designed for smooth, quiet travel, these carriers minimize clicking and jumping in vibration-sensitive applications such as printing and scanning.

Snap-Together Enclosed Cable and Hose Carriers

By completely surrounding the cable and hose, these carriers protect them from dirt, chips, and debris.

Any-Which-Way Enclosed Cable and Hose Carriers

Bending and twisting up to 380° in any direction, these carriers organize and protect cable and hose around machines that are constantly moving, such as robotic arms and conveyors.

Pull Cords

Rope Pull Cords

Operate doors, vents, skylights, and overhead equipment.

Starter Pull Cords

Replace broken or worn pull cords on machinery and tools, including those on lawn mowers.
