Bent attachments
Bent attachments create a robust link between the chain and your custom components. These standardized plates (compliant with ISO 606) serve as a reliable interface, giving design engineers the freedom to mount individual parts, sensors, or other functional elements directly onto the roller chain.
Advantages of roller chains with bent attachments
- Flexible mounting on one or both sides
- Custom pitch spacing available
- Compatible with simplex, duplex, and triplex chains
- Versatile for drive, conveyor, and lifting applications
- Enables multiple functions when used with other custom chain attachments
- Robust performance in demanding temperatures and contaminated environments
- Positive, slip-free power transmission
- Economical over the entire service life
- Wide performance spectrum through various chain sizes and multi-strand designs
- Supports a broad range of transmission ratios
- Large center-to-center distances are feasible (e.g., in conveying systems)
- Chain elongation clearly indicates the end of the service life
- Easy to extend and shorten as needed
- Bidirectional drive possible (both sides)
- No pre-tensioning required, resulting in no static load on bearings
- suitable for fire-safety-relevant applications
- Available in zinc-plated, nickel-plated and stainless-steel versions
If our standard bent attachments aren’t the right fit, we can manufacture custom designs quickly and precisely to your specifications.
