Our Chain

We work with two of the world’s most established manufacturers of conveyor chain and accessories to provide flexible and agile sourcing options for our customers, as well as our excellent and reliable UK based mouldings facility which casts the sprockets we use to power our chain. This combination provides us with the reaction speed and capability to meet any requirement from stock or custom made.

As a British-based supplier and manufacturer, all our materials and components conform to the relevant BS guidelines. This quality benchmark provides assurance that no matter where our customers are in the world, they can be assured that we will only supply certified, high-quality products, hand-assembled with the greatest care and attention to detail to consistent standards.

Whether from stock or as a bespoke commission, we have the expertise to help you build, maintain, and repair your conveyor system. We can also offer many components on an emergency breakdown basis. Even if we weren’t the original supplier, we can usually help identify a suitable, cost effective solution to get your conveyor system back up and running with minimal delay.

Whether for a specialist function, unconventional and particularly aggressive conditions or to provide greater cost efficiencies over a chains’ lifetime, sometimes the best option is to commission a made to order, bespoke conveyor chain.

We’ve been designing & manufacturing bespoke chain for major car plants, leading water treatment companies and many other market leading companies for decades and our strong manufacturing and engineering background ensures that we can always provide you with the perfect solution, however exacting your requirements.

We produce and brand conveyor & elevator chain and accompanying sprockets in large volumes for OEM’s, helping you promote your own brand, safe in the knowledge that you’re supplying the very best chain there is.

So, whether you’re designing a customised system, looking to replace a non-standard conveyor chain already in operation, or just wanting advice on where to start, get in touch and discuss your requirements with our dedicated Technical Sales team.

Conveyor chain is extremely adaptable for different tasks and environments resulting in many different types of chain, dimensions and configurations. With several hundred different special types of chain on the market often designed to be applied to a specific machine, if our range of stock chain is not suitable our bespoke chain service can manufacture any chain with any attachments. Here are some of the most popular types of chain we supply with or without integrated attachments.

Roller Chain / Transmission Chain The most commonly used chain is roller chain or as it is also known transmission chain. These are the simplest chain drives, used mainly for transmitting power.
Extended Pin Roller Chain Similar to traditional roller or transmission chain but with an extended pin coming out of either one side or both sides of the chain.
Solid Pin Chain These heavy duty chains have straight, flat side plates and are used for moving products / materials which either sit directly on top of the chain or are propelled using specific fitted attachments.
Hollow Pin Chain Same as the solid pin conveyor chain, only these have a hollow bore through which a metal rod can be placed to assist the movement of products  or materials between two or more parallel strands of chain.
Forged Link Chain These chains are normally supplied with flights welded onto each side. Used for scraping loose granular products such as cement, flour and grain.
Crank Link Chain Heavy duty chains, typically used on rotary screens and theme park rides. Used mainly for transmitting huge amounts of power.
Apron Conveyor Chain These chains are fed with product being dumped directly onto the steel slats of the chain. The product can then be conveyed up an incline and fed directly into another awaiting machine such as a rotary hammer crusher.
