LEAF CHAINS
Leaf chains are built of interlaced plates held together by rivet pins. They are built with the same high degree of precision as our roller chains. HKK Leaf chains are used for applications that require strong flexible linkage for transmitting motion or lift. Specially selected steel and unique heat treatment assures high strength and durability. The first number or numbers in leaf chains identifies the chain pitch, the last 2 numbers identify the chain’s lacing. New applications should use BL series leaf chains.
Leaf Chain is the most simple of steel chains, consisting only of link plates and pins. This chain generally has greater tensile strength than roller chains and runs over sheaves rather than sprockets. They are suitable for hanging, balancing or motion transmitting applications. Leaf chains are often used as counterweight chains for machine tools, elevator and oven doors, fork lift truck masts, spinning frames and similar lifting or balancing applications.
Plates are connected by pins and hold the tension loaded on the chain.
AL TYPE
Plate configuration and thickness are the same as ANSI G8 roller chain. Pin diameter is almost the same as ANSI G8 roller chain.
BL TYPE
BL Series leaf chains consist of link plates which are thicker and larger in contour than the AL Series link plates of the same pitch. The link plates have the same thickness as the link plates of the next larger pitch size in ANSI G8 roller chains. The pins have the same diameter as those of ANSI G8 roller chains of the next larger pitch.

Can a gear chain be retrofitted into an existing system?
Yes, a gear chain can be retrofitted into an existing system under certain circumstances. Here are some considerations:
1. Compatibility:
– The existing system should have the necessary space and structural support to accommodate the gear chain. It’s important to assess whether the gear chain can be integrated without causing interference or compromising the overall functionality of the system.
2. Shaft Alignment:
– The alignment of the input and output shafts must be suitable for the installation of a gear chain. If the existing system has misalignment issues, they should be addressed before retrofitting the gear chain to ensure proper operation and minimize the risk of premature wear or failure.
3. Power and Torque Requirements:
– The gear chain selected for retrofitting should be capable of handling the required power and torque of the system. It’s essential to evaluate the load characteristics, speed, and operating conditions to choose the appropriate gear chain that meets the performance requirements.
4. Modifications and Adaptations:
– Depending on the specific system configuration, some modifications or adaptations may be necessary to accommodate the gear chain. This can include changes to the mounting arrangement, shafts, or other components. Professional engineering expertise may be required to ensure proper installation and functionality.
5. System Integration:
– The integration of the gear chain into the existing system should be carefully planned and executed. This involves ensuring proper alignment, adequate lubrication, and appropriate tensioning of the gear chain. It’s also important to consider the compatibility of other system components, such as bearings and seals, with the gear chain.
Before retrofitting a gear chain, it’s recommended to consult with experienced engineers or professionals familiar with the specific application and system requirements. They can provide guidance on the feasibility of retrofitting and help identify any potential challenges or modifications needed for a successful integration.
Can a gear chain be used in corrosive or harsh environments?
A gear chain can be used in corrosive or harsh environments depending on its material composition and protective measures. Here are some considerations:
1. Material Selection: Choose a gear chain made from materials that are resistant to corrosion and can withstand harsh conditions. Stainless steel, for example, is commonly used in such environments due to its corrosion resistance.
2. Coatings and Surface Treatments: Apply specialized coatings or surface treatments to the gear chain to enhance its resistance to corrosion and protect it from harsh chemicals or abrasive substances.
3. Sealing and Enclosures: Use appropriate sealing mechanisms and enclosures to prevent contaminants, moisture, and corrosive agents from reaching the gear chain. This can include sealed housings, gaskets, or protective covers.
4. Regular Maintenance: Implement a thorough maintenance program to inspect, clean, and lubricate the gear chain regularly. This helps remove any accumulated debris or corrosive substances and ensures proper functioning.
5. Environmental Controls: Control the environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to corrosive elements in the working environment. This may involve installing ventilation systems, implementing protective barriers, or using specialized enclosures.
However, it’s important to note that even with these measures, the performance and lifespan of a gear chain in corrosive or harsh environments may be reduced compared to operating in normal conditions. Therefore, careful consideration should be given to the specific environmental factors and the suitability of the gear chain for the intended application.
Can a gear chain be used in high-speed applications?
Yes, a gear chain can be used in high-speed applications. Gear chains are designed to transmit power and motion efficiently, even at high speeds. However, there are certain considerations to keep in mind when using a gear chain in high-speed applications:
- Quality and Precision: To ensure smooth and reliable operation at high speeds, it is essential to use high-quality gear chains manufactured to precise specifications. The chain components should be accurately machined and assembled to minimize vibrations and ensure proper engagement with the sprockets.
- Lubrication: Adequate lubrication is crucial for reducing friction, wear, and heat generation in high-speed gear chains. The lubricant should have excellent thermal stability and provide sufficient film strength to withstand the increased operating speeds.
- Balancing: Proper balancing of rotating components, such as sprockets and shafts, is important to minimize vibration and maintain the stability of the gear chain system. Imbalances can lead to excessive stress and premature failure of the chain.
- Temperature Control: High-speed operation can generate heat, so it is important to consider temperature control measures such as cooling systems or proper ventilation to prevent overheating of the gear chain.
- Maintenance and Inspection: Regular maintenance and inspection are crucial for identifying any signs of wear, misalignment, or damage that may compromise the performance and safety of the gear chain. High-speed applications may require more frequent inspections and maintenance intervals.
By considering these factors and selecting a gear chain designed specifically for high-speed applications, it is possible to utilize gear chains effectively and safely in high-speed mechanical systems.
