As a common transmission element, stainless steel chains have different materials. Although they are all used in the same structure, the performance of stainless steel chains will vary greatly due to the difference in materials.I don't know where the specific differences are manifested.

    The stainless steel chain is designed to reduce friction through the hyperbolic arc chain design, so it can be used in places where the power is relatively large and the running speed is relatively slow; and the stainless steel chain is superior to other transmission elements many.

    In practical applications, some stainless steel chains are made of high-quality 1Cr18Ni9Ti or SS304 stainless steel. These stainless steel chains are resistant to acid, alkali, cold and heat, and long life. They are widely used in food, chemical, pharmaceutical, Rubber, printing, silk and other machinery, and supporting various import and export machinery.

    Some stainless steel chains use austenitic stainless steel as the main material, such as 304, 316 and 316L. They are more prominent in their excellent corrosion resistance, so this type of stainless steel chain can be used in acid, alkali and -40°-600° Used in high and low temperature occasions.What is more worthy of attention is the stainless steel chain made of 316L, in addition to corrosion resistance, it also has better diamagnetism and temperature adaptability.

    In addition, martensitic stainless steel is also a commonly used material type for stainless steel chains, such as 2Cr13.The stainless steel chain made of this material not only has good anti-corrosion ability, but also has the strength of carbon steel with the same carbon content, and is also widely used.
