2198 sugar mill chain with K2 attachment: 152.4 mm pitch, 450 kN ultimate strength, 22.10 mm pin.
The SHINING 2198 is a heavy sugar-mill roller chain supplied with the K2 attachment. It runs at a 152.4 mm pitch with a 22.10 mm pin and an average ultimate strength of 450 kN - the strength class that suits a main carrier or a heavily loaded intermediate line. Sidebar, bush and roller dimensions are given in the table below.
The 2198 carries the load with a strong sidebar and a large-diameter bush and roller, all heat-treated, so the chain holds its pitch through the wet, abrasive conditions of a sugar house. The K2 attachment is welded to your drawing.
Main Cane Carriers: where a high-strength chain carries the whole crop.
Intermediate Carriers: between milling stages on a heavily loaded line.
Bagasse Conveying: wet, abrasive bagasse duty.
Feed and Washing Tables: front-end conveying of cane and trash.
Heavy Bulk Handling: continuous heavy conveying where 450 kN is required.
Every working part - pin, bush and roller - is heat-treated or hardened to reach the strength and working life the sugar duty demands, not left in the as-machined state.
The chain is built for high strength and a long working life under continuous load, which is what keeps a mill's carrier line running between shutdowns.
The roller turns on the bush rather than sliding, so friction and wear are taken at the bush/roller interface and the pin is protected from the abrasive load.
A full line of matching sprockets is available, and attachments are made to your drawing, so chain, sprocket and attachment come from one source and wear together.
Chain, sprockets, slats, buckets and shafts can all be supplied together, so the whole assembly is sized and matched by one manufacturer instead of being pieced together.
The table below gives the standard 2198 section with the K2 attachment. Dimensions are in mm and the average ultimate strength in kN. Other attachments and pitches are made to order.

SHINING has manufactured conveyor chain and sprockets for sugar mills for over twenty years, with drop forging, welding, machining and heat treatment under our own control. Every production batch is tensile-tested before shipment, and our quality system is certified to ISO 9001:2015 (46026Q00958R053) and ISO 14001:2015 (46026E00959R053).
We build to interchange. Send the OEM part number, an old link or a drawing, and we will confirm the match and reproduce it dimension-for-dimension, with sprockets and attachments cut to suit.
Standard production lead time is 60 days from receipt of the order and confirmation of the drawing. For breakdowns and planned shutdowns we can discuss an expedited slot - tell us your date and we will plan the delivery around it.
Our engineers support station and duty review, chain selection, wear and elongation analysis, maintenance planning, and genuine replacement parts. Send your conveying duty and we will size the chain for you.
Tell us your duty, your drawing or the OEM part number, and our engineers will come back with the right chain and a price. Email the sales team at sales@shiningco.com.
