P78.1 welded chain with F29 attachment: 78.1 mm pitch welded conveyor chain with hardened working parts.
The SHINING P78.1 is a welded conveyor chain on a 78.1 mm pitch, supplied with the F29 attachment welded to the link. It is the form of chain used where a cane carrier or scraper line needs a sharper, more heavily braced link than a forged chain of the same pitch can give.
Welded construction allows the link to be shaped progressively during manufacture, so the finished chain combines a strong link form with the hardened working surfaces the sugar duty demands. F29 flights and attachments are welded to your drawing and checked for straightness before shipment.
Cane Carriers: main conveying of cane into the milling train.
Scraper and Flight Conveying: where F29 flights push or drag the material.
Bagasse Conveying: wet, abrasive bagasse duty.
Feed and Washing Tables: conveying cane and trash at the front end of the mill.
General Bulk Handling: chain duty where a welded, hardened link is preferred.
The links are of welded construction and the working parts are hardened, which gives the chain the toughness and fatigue resistance that a riveted chain of the same pitch cannot always reach.
A welded link can be given a sharper, more heavily braced shape than a forged or cast link, so it resists the shock loads of a cane carrier without opening up.
Riveted construction is standard. Cottered construction can be furnished on a made-to-order basis where field assembly demands it.
Flights, scrapers and pusher attachments are welded to your drawing and checked for straightness and weld quality before shipment.
Matching sprockets and split or segmental rims are available so the drive side is covered as well as the chain.
The P78.1 runs at a 78.1 mm pitch and is supplied with the F29 attachment welded in place. Attachment height, lead and hole positions are made to your drawing; tell us the duty and we will confirm the link, pin and attachment build.

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.
