The SHINING P100 Scraper Conveyor Chain features integrated Teflon (PTFE) scraper plates, delivering superior non-stick performance and chemical resistance for clean, efficient conveying. It is the ideal solution for food processing (e.g., bleaching earth) and chemical handling, guaranteeing 80 kN strength and easy clean-down. Custom-configured for immediate integration into your drag conveyor system. For Non-standard products, MOQ=100FT.
Overview
The SHINING P100 Scraper Conveyor Chain with Teflon is a precision-engineered scraper conveyor chain designed for efficient and reliable material handling in specific industrial applications. It features a robust roller chain construction (Pitch: 100mm) with integrated Teflon (Polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE) scraper plates attached at regular intervals (every 4 links). This chain is engineered to provide dependable performance in conveying applications where material release, hygiene, and chemical resistance are paramount. The chain delivers a guaranteed minimum Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) of 80 kN, ensuring structural integrity for its intended use.
Features
Premium PTFE Scrapers: The defining feature of this chain is the use of Teflon (PTFE) for the scraper plates. PTFE is selected for its exceptional non-stick properties, extremely low coefficient of friction, and outstanding resistance to a wide range of chemicals. This facilitates superior material release, minimizes product buildup, reduces conveyor drag, and simplifies cleaning—critical advantages in sensitive processes.
Robust Chain Construction: The chain is manufactured from high-quality alloy steels. Critical components undergo precise heat treatment to achieve optimal hardness (e.g., Plate HRC 35-42, Pin HRC 45-52) for a balance of strength and wear resistance.
Proven Performance: Independent inspection confirms the chain exceeds its rated 80 kN UTS specification, with tested values reaching 86.2 kN, and demonstrates excellent dimensional accuracy and smooth, flexible operation.
Custom-Configured: Supplied as complete, ready-to-install sets of specified lengths, with scrapers pre-installed at the designated interval for immediate integration into your conveyor system.
Primary Applications
This chain is specifically suitable for scraper or drag conveyor systems in industries where its material properties offer distinct benefits:
Food & Edible Oil Processing: Ideal for conveying additives like Bleaching Earth (Activated Clay) used in the decolorization and purification of edible oils. PTFE's inertness and non-stick surface prevent contamination and ensure complete, clean material discharge.
Chemical Handling: Suitable for conveying powdered or granular chemicals where corrosion resistance and purity are essential, leveraging PTFE's broad chemical compatibility.
Applications Requiring Easy Cleandown: Processes with strict hygiene standards or frequent wash-downs benefit from PTFE's smooth, non-porous surface that resists adhesion and is easy to clean.
Why Teflon (PTFE) Over UHMW?
While UHMW-PE is an excellent, highly wear-resistant polymer used in many heavy-duty scraper chains (such as our HSB150 for grain), Teflon (PTFE) is the superior choice for this specific application due to the following critical properties:
Unmatched Non-Stick Performance: PTFE has the lowest coefficient of friction of any solid material, ensuring that sticky materials like bleaching earth are less likely to adhere to the scraper, promoting cleaner discharge and higher efficiency.
Superior Chemical Inertness: PTFE is virtually inert to almost all industrial chemicals and solvents, making it ideal for applications involving active chemical agents like bleaching earth, where material purity and component integrity are crucial.
Excellent Hygienic Properties: Its non-porous, smooth surface prevents bacterial growth and allows for thorough, easy cleaning, which is a significant advantage in food-related processing environments.
Wide Service Temperature Range: PTFE maintains its properties across a broader temperature range compared to UHMW, accommodating processes with potential thermal variations.
