240DC Double Capacity Roller Chain | 240DC Chain

240DC double capacity roller chain is capable of transferring extremely high loads of force to a high degree of efficiency. Our 240DC roller chain is made from high-grade alloy steel that has been precision machined into individually heat-treated components to create a chain capable of operating in some of the most extreme applications in the world. What sets this 240DC chain apart from others is the solid bushing solid roller (SBR) features and a quad-staked rivet for improved side load capacity and shock load ability. Something important to note about this chain is that it still operates on standard single-strand 240 sprockets but has load characteristics of a double-strand chain. Many application engineers choose double capacity roller chains due to their small form-factor for high load capabilities. 240 double capacity roller chain is found in applications such as; elevators, earth moving equipment, mining, high-torque drives, and more.

240 Double Capacity Chain Benefits

Precision solid bushings and solid rollers for superior performance and strength. Solid bushings and solid rollers greatly resist distortion and wear, giving longer life in heavy and shock-loaded applications.

The quad-staked pins of this chain have greatly increased the side plates' holding power, reducing the effect of shock loading and increasing the chain's overall durability.

This chain's Wide Waist Link Plates are wider than standard, reducing stretching and increasing fatigue resistance by approximately 30%.

All components are made from high-strength steel for superior durability and performance.
