For Use at Low-temperature
When using conveyor chains at low-temperature such as in the refrigerator or in a cold ambiance, the following circumstances may perhaps come about.
one) Minimal temperature brittleness
In general, a material is embrittled at low-temperature and shock resistance is lowered. This phenomenon is named low-temperature brittleness, as well as degree of embrittlement differs from materials to materials.
The services restrict of a conveyor chain depends on its specs.
two)Influence of freezing
At low-temperature, bending failure, roller rotation failure, fixing of chain, etc. could possibly be brought about from the freezing of penetrated water or deposited frost while in the clearance amongst pins and bushings, bushings and rollers or inner plates 
and outer plates. These ailments bring about an overload to act on the chain and drive, diminishing the lifestyle on the chain.
To avoid freezing, usually, it can be advised to fill the clearances by using a low-temperature lubricant suitable for the support temperature to stop water, frost, and so on. from penetrating the respective portions of the chain. For lubrication, a silicon based grease is suggested.
For Use at High-temperature
Chains strength is diminished by high-temperature atmosphere, direct conveying of high-temperature loads, or radiated heat, etc. The support limit at high-temperature depends not about the temperature of your support environment but the temperature and material of the chain physique.
Following disorders may well take place when chains are used at high-temperature:
1) High temperature brittleness and fracture by lowered hardness of heat handled material
2) Brittleness triggered by carbide precipitation
three) Abnormal wear by scale
4) Fatigue fracture caused by repeated thermal shock (cooling and growth)
5) Abnormal dress in resulting from an increase during the coefficient of friction
6) Creep fracture
seven) Fracture due to thermal fatigue of welded location
8) Effects brought on by thermal expansion
?Stiff backlinks and rotation failure as a result of decreased clearance ?Fatigue fracture as a consequence of lowered fitting force
9）Lubrication failure and stiff hyperlinks resulting from deterioration and carbonization of lubricating oil
Grease exceptional in heat resistance incorporate people based on silicon, graphite or molybdenum disulfide.
For use at high-temperature, high-temperature resistance bearings and stainless steel bearings are advised.
