Bush chains are manufactured in accordance with ČSN 02 3301 and in dimensions according to ČSN 02 3329. Our Universal joint manufacturing programme also includes non-standard bush chains produced according to your internal documentation.
A bush chain is very like the roller chain. Nevertheless, it does not possess friction – reducing rollers and is usually thus appropriate rather for lower traveling speeds. The permitted standard motion speeds of the slow-running bush chains range between 0.3 m/sec to at least one 1.2 m/sec, with a maximum of 3.0 m/sec. Bush chains are most frequently found in applications requiring continuous operation under coarse working circumstances as well as procedure in warm and humid environment where the use of belt drives would be inappropriate.
