Published in Power in Motion April 2007 -- G7- 'seventh generation' ANSI standard chain employs an innovative bushing system that greatly improves internal lubrication and extends wear life by 100% in the most popular RS80 to RS140 sizes. A combination of the new 'lube groove' bushing and an exhaustive testing regime also means that the new ANSI standard RS roller chain has a 33% higher kW rating.

As a partner to the already successful ANSI series, a new range of Engineering Plastic Combination chains (PC) are being launched in BS/DIN Standard sizes. PC chain offers a lightweight alternative to all-stainless chains for applications with a high level of moisture present, wash down conditions, and corrosive atmospheres. Available in drive, conveyor and attachment variations, the new PC series chains can provide high levels of resistance to water, acids, alkalis and food ingredients. A single-piece engineering plastic inner link design promotes easier cleaning and allows lube-free operation, extending chain life in poor lubrication situations.
