One lock for all transportation and conveying tasks with the round steel chain/link chain
The new UKS universal chain lock can be used in combination with the round steel chain/link chain for a wide range of conveyor applications, replacing the RSP, VK and FL chain locks. This means lower storage costs for you and a reduction in your total cost of ownership. The quick and easy installation by a single person significantly reduces downtime during installation or repair of all types of conveyors. The case hardness of the UKS chain lock corresponds to grades R80 to R160, while the increased tooth cross-sections (and the pitch of the cross-section of the connecting teeth) ensure reliable power transmission. To prevent damage when the sprockets are driven over, the lock shape has been adapted to the chain link width.
Areas of application
- Vertical conveyors (e.g. elevators / bucket elevators)
- Horizontal conveyors (e.g. scraper conveyors for ash removal or other applications)
- For multi-purpose use in round steel chains
- Instead of the square lock VK, the space-saving lock RSP and the flat lock FL
- Pocket wheels and sprockets
Advantages
- Quick and easy installation by one person
- Insert hardness corresponds to the qualities R80-R160
- Fits RUD pocket and chain wheels
- Improved design of the teeth to prevent breakage
- It is no longer necessary to observe a tightening torque
- One connector for all transport tasks with round steel chains/link chains in conveyor technology→ This means less stockholding & fewer order numbers in purchasing
- Easier and faster installation → This means less downtime when installing and repairing all types of conveyors
- No mandatory mounting direction as the UKS universal chain lock runs over pocket and chain wheels
- Reduces your total cost of ownership
