Corrosion resistant drive chains (Neptune/APP Series)
High corrosion resistance
Corrosion resistance Chemical Tsubaki’s corrosion resistant drive chains (rust resistance) resistance are the best choice for chains subject to Standard type Salt spray test* 1000-ppm sodium Sodium hydroxide severely corrosive environments. hypochlorite 5% Stainless steel chains, as well as surface 700 hrs 2,000 hrs 2,000 hrs treated drive chains and Neptune chain, provide both long service life and high ® Neptune performance. Neptune chain offers superior resistance to salt water, weather, 700 hrs 200 hrs; red rust 15 hrs; flaking and chemicals (alkalis), and the APP Slab conveyor Series provides special surface treatment Conventional on only pins, protecting pins from pitting type (which induces fatigue failure), making them very useful in environments subject * Salt spray test methods as speci ed in JIS-Z-2371. to water contact and steam.
15 16 There are two types of rolling. In hot rolling, heated metal goes through a rolling machine where it is worked into a sheet or bar. In cold rolling, sheet Hot rolling RRollingolling (hot(hot rrolling)olling) steel is made thinner at normal temperatures, and its surface is made smooth and uniform.
Hot rolling Chains for lifting Pin Gear Drive Unit
This process stretches a slab to a strip. The slab is reheated to approx. 1250°C and rolled in hot conditions. The resultant strip steel is wound into a roll like toilet paper (hot coil). Tsubaki Pin Gear Drive Units play an active role in moving steel rolling trolleys. They allow for long strokes not possible with hydraulic cylinders and contribute to space savings. Tsubaki chains are used in important areas, such as The pin rack is built as a unit of opening/closing heating furnace doors. In addition to trusted, a given length. Use of the proven heavy load chains, RF chains play an active role as angle type allows for easy they are compatible with heavy load chains and proven in installation and tooth many applications. engagement adjustment.
Toughroller
Tsubaki Toughrollers are ideal for moving, transferring, and transporting heavy objects. The rollers have a low center of gravity and are compact and highly circular, enabling transportation of heavy objects with small force.
Conveyor chains for transporting semi- nished products
Chains for use with conveyors for transporting semi- nished products such as slabs and billets should be designed by considering, among other criteria, the shape, temperature, and conveying atmosphere of objects to be conveyed. Tsubaki proposes optimum speci cations based on its wealth of experience.

The large number of teeth simultaneously in mesh Hollow type Solid type reduces uneven rotation. Rolling machine and roll drive for rolled sheet Looper equipment
Looper equipment refers to material accumulating devices used for transferring, winding, and unwinding rolled steel. In surface treatment lines such as CAL and CGL, the steel ow becomes discontinuous when the ends of coils are welded together on the inlet side or the wound coil is cut on the outlet side. For continuous surface treatment, the accumulated steel sheet needs to be fed out smoothly by elevating the carriage of the loop tower up and down. Tsubaki’s trusted, proven G8 Series Heavy Duty Drive Chain is used successfully for elevating the carriage.
