Description Technical Specs
 

Exceed expectations on the production floor with WH132 welded steel chain from USA Roller Chain & Sprockets. As a top Engineer-Class chain in the marketplace today, this welded mill chain offers efficiency in various industries. It's perfect for processing pulp, sugar, paper, grain handling, forestry applications, and other heavy-duty conveyance sectors. Interestingly enough WH132 steel chain will run on the same sprockets as it's cast counterpart H132 chain, which makes making the switch to a welded steel chain seamless!

Each mill chain comes as an offset link design with a low 14.2-pounds-per-foot weight specification. With 122,000 pounds of ultra-high tensile strength, this WH132 chain serves your industry well. The secret behind its durability is high-precision strengthened welds added to high-grade steel. Every weld is supported by heat-treated parts that include the barrels, side plates, and pins. Solid metallurgy accompanies every shipment from USA Roller Chain. Order your 10-foot coils today. Put those 20-link strands to work as each heat-treated pin per coil supports the entire assembly. Your system is ready to fly with welded chains.

WH132 Chain Application Examples:

  • Heavy-duty conveyors
  • Forestry
  • Grain handling
  • Pulp, paper, and sugar processing

WH132 vs WR132 vs WH132HD vs WH132XHD Chain


WR132 and WH132 chain directly interchange with each other dimensionally and are both equally as popular. WH132HD heavy duty chain and WH132XHD extra heavy duty chain dimensionally is the same but with different side-bar thicknesses, WH132HD = +0.120" and WH132XHD = +0.125". However, when taking a closer look there are differences. WR132 does not implement fully heat-treated components, thus it has a much quicker wear life and a lower tensile strength rating. Because of this we primarily recommend WH132 chain for general applications and WH132XHD chain for applications requiring the highest strength 132 chains available.
WR132 tensile strength - 85,500 LBS (-36,500 LBS)
WH132 tensile strength - 122,000 LBS
WH132HD tensile strength - 139,500 LBS (+17,500 LBS)
WH132XHD tensile strength - 140,000 LBS (+18,500 LBS)

WH132 Welded Steel Chain Construction


Welded steel chains got their name from their construction. A welded steel chain is manufactured with a precision strengthened weld around the outside diameter of the barrel connecting the two sidebars together. Within the barrel, there is the pin which on a WH132 chain the pin is full 360° heat-treated for optimal wear life. Then housing it all are the heat-treated distinctive offset style sidebars. Please note that standardly we supply WH132 chain as a riveted construction but WH132 cottered chain is also available from stock.
Made in USA WH132 Chains

Something that really sets USA Roller Chain and Sprockets apart from other suppliers in the industry is our lineup of domestically manufactured chains. We supply a Made in USA WH132 chain for almost the same price as an import chain, the benefit of domestic welded steel chains boils down to the metallurgy and workmanship/ quality control. Domestic steel has better properties than import and US workers ensure the chain is up to quality standards and is ready for install. Though working loads and tensile strengths are the same with a domestic chain, the metallurgy that domestic materials support will provide an overall better working life in the long-run.
