Leaf Chain AL 1266 - 15m/reel

AL Series Leaf Chain

The AL or American Light leaf chains utilise the same link plates as the equivalent pitch ANSI roller chain. The lighter duty of these chains generally sees them applied to machine tool applications or light lifting.

Leaf chain is a simple form of chain that offers higher tensile strengths and a narrower overall width when compared to standard power transmission chains. Leaf chains are composed of interlaced link plates and pins, but they do not include a bush or a rr. The outer link plates offer a tight interference fit to prevent the pins from rotating with the leaf chains running over sheaves rather than sprockets.

Due to their increased tensile strength, impact resistance and fatigue resistance, leaf chains or commonly used in lifting and material handling applications. These applications include but are not limited to lifts and hoists, forklift trucks, boom trucks, counter weight systems, machining systems and elevators.

Note
All chain coils/lengths are supplied with a standard connecting link.
