Engineering and welded-steel chain families for demanding conveying, drag and bulk-material applications. This page is prepared for model identification, preliminary selection and quotation. The exact production configuration should be confirmed before order placement.

About this model

C55 Engineering Conveyor Chain (model C55) is a standard item in the KEDI Engineering Chains range, with Family C55; Construction Heavy-duty engineering chain; Material Heat-treated carbon/alloy steel; Application Heavy conveyor / bulk handling. It is produced to drawing and standard, inspected for dimensions and hardness before shipment, and can be supplied alone or as a matched set with mating transmission parts. Material, heat treatment, bore and surface finish can be adapted to the application.

Material & process

MaterialCarbon steel or alloy steel plates, case-hardened pins, bushings and rollers
Heat treatmentThrough-hardened plates; carburised pins and bushings for wear resistance
SurfacePre-lubricated; black, shot-peened, zinc or nickel plated and stainless versions on request
StandardsISO 606 / DIN 8187 (B series) and ANSI B29.1 (A series) dimensions
Custom optionsAttachments (A/K/SA/SK), extended pins, hollow pins, special lengths and connecting links

Quality control

  • Pitch length measured under specified load
  • Tensile strength sampling per batch
  • Hardness of pins, bushings and plates checked after heat treatment
  • Visual check of riveting, rotation and lubrication before packing

How to select

  1. Calculate design power: motor power multiplied by the service factor of the driven machine.
  2. Choose pitch and number of strands from the power rating at the small sprocket speed.
  3. Use at least 17 teeth on the small sprocket; keep a single-stage ratio below 7:1.
  4. Set the centre distance at 30 to 50 pitches and plan lubrication for the running speed.
  5. Order chain and sprockets together so pitch, roller width and tooth form match.

Ordering & packing

  • For a quotation, send: model C55, quantity and delivery destination
  • For custom versions: drawing or sample, material, heat treatment and finish
  • Packing: anti-rust oil, moisture-proof wrap, carton or wooden case; labels on request
  • Lead time: confirmed with the quotation for standard sizes, and after drawing review for custom parts

Frequently asked questions

Can you match my existing chain?

Yes. Send the chain number, pitch, roller diameter and inner width, or a short sample, and we will confirm an equivalent.

Do you supply matching sprockets?

Yes. Simplex, duplex, triplex, taper-bore and idler sprockets are produced to match the chain.

Can attachments be added?

Attachments, extended pins and special connecting links can be fitted to drawing.
