Corn Head Gathering Chains

Corn Head Gathering Chains


The very first successful corn combine that used corn gathering chains was manufactured in 1929 by the Gleaner-Baldwin Company. However, major developments didn't begin until after World War II when the engineers at John Deere produced and successfully offered a corn head combine mount in 1954. Corn head gathers use chains (known as corn head gathering chain) running in a ramp mechanism to gather the stalks and then cut them with pairs of circular saw blades, then an auger-type mechanism feeds the plants into a threshing cylinder. Since then a few things have changed, but the general concept and operation has remained the same.

At USA Roller Chain and Sprockets we recognize the importance of the chain in a corn head gathering assembly. That is why the corn head gathering chain we offer is manufactured using high-quality steel that has been heat-treated for maximum strength and durability. These chains manufactuing process is done using the latest techniques and implement a solid-roller design for increased performance. We can also supply corn head gatherer sprockets!
