Description

1. Chain Size and Classification:

• 24B refers to the size of the chain:
  • 24 indicates the pitch, which is the distance between the centers of two adjacent pins. For the 24B chain, the pitch is 3/4 inch (or 19.05 mm).
  • B designates a specific style of chain that usually uses hardened steel rollers and pins, providing superior resistance to wear and tear.

2. Duplex Chain:

• Duplex means the chain features two rows of rollers, which offers several advantages:
  • Higher Load Capacity: The duplex design allows the chain to handle more load compared to a Simplex chain (which has a single row of rollers). The 24B-2 chain is ideal for medium-to-heavy-duty applications that require high strength and load-bearing capacity.
  • Improved Durability: With two rows of rollers, the load is distributed more evenly, resulting in better wear resistance and a longer service life compared to simplex chains.

3. Common Applications:

• The 24B-2 Duplex roller chain is used in various industrial and mechanical applications where higher load-bearing capacity and durability are essential:
  • Industrial machinery: For conveyor systems, production lines, and other heavy-duty equipment requiring reliable power transmission.
  • Power transmission systems: In applications where higher loads need to be transmitted efficiently over time.
  • Automated systems: In machines requiring continuous and smooth power transmission.
  • Heavy-duty equipment: Used in industries like mining, agriculture, construction, and manufacturing, where machinery operates under high stress.

4. Material and Construction:

• Steel: The 24B-2 roller chain is typically made from high-quality steel, ensuring strength and durability.
• Corrosion Resistance: Certain variants may come with corrosion-resistant coatings such as zinc plating, making them suitable for outdoor environments or systems exposed to moisture.
• Heat Treatment: The rollers and pins of the chain are often heat-treated to enhance their wear resistance and increase the chain’s longevity.
• Lubrication: Regular lubrication is crucial for smooth operation, reducing friction and wear on the chain, ensuring efficient power transmission.

5. Dimensions:

• The 24B-2 Duplex roller chain typically features:
  • Pitch: 3/4 inch (19.05 mm), which is the standard distance between the centers of two adjacent pins.
  • Duplex design: The chain has two rows of rollers, allowing it to support heavier loads and provide greater strength than simplex chains.

6. Advantages of Duplex Chains:

• Higher Load Capacity: The duplex construction provides superior load capacity compared to simplex chains, making the 24B-2 ideal for heavier-duty applications.
• Increased Durability: The two rows of rollers distribute the load more evenly, resulting in better wear resistance and a longer operational lifespan.
• Reduced Maintenance: Duplex chains require less frequent maintenance compared to simplex chains due to their enhanced strength and durability.
• Efficient Power Transmission: The 24B-2 duplex chain ensures efficient power transmission in applications where consistent and reliable operation is critical.
