Tsubaki: The choice for chain TM
Chain Integrity
A Chain is Only as Strong as its Weakest Link You invest in new chain and attachments and you expect your operation to run smoothly. For that to happen, here’s what you should know: Proper welding is paramount. The integrity of a chain’s welds is critical to the success of your operation. A catastrophe at the refinery should not let you know it wasn’t done right in the first place. Chain that’s created with improper welding techniques will reveal a fatigue factor and will fail before its time. The tensile strength of the entire chain is reduced just because of its weakest weld. Weld penetration – filling the seam of the metals being joined to its greatest depth – is the most important aspect of consistent welding practice.
But you can’t always see improper weld penetration by looking.
At U.S. Tsubaki we do it right the first time by offering pre- and post-heat process on all heat-treated sidebars prior to welding, reducing the potential for cracking on the surfaces and subsurfaces and high-hardness zones that result in brittle or fatigue failure.
Our welds are tested for proper weld penetration, to ensure that each weld has achieved optimum strength and each link will provide maximum durability.
Then we put our welds to punishing failure tests – during every manufacturing run.
That’s our Tsubaki promise to you.
Sprockets
When chains and sprockets articulate correctly, your operations are enhanced, resulting in longer life from your chain. It is our goal to offer you the real value and long-term savings this represents. U.S. Tsubaki offers a wide variety of engineering class sprockets to complete all your power transmission needs.
