Grip chains are used in the packaging industry, medical technology, the electrical industry, PCB production and metalworking. For applications in food technology, all chains can be provided with a food-safe initial lubricant. Different spring forces allow different materials to be gripped gently and held securely. The clamp fits precisely into the groove, which ensures a better holding force. The films do not warp and are not deformed at the clamp contour. Dimpled plates ensure functional reliability and hygiene.

The base chains are chemically nickel-plated; maintenance-free versions of the Megalife series are available on request. The recommended maximum application speed is two meters per second for the ½-inch grip chain and 0.6 meters per second for the 5/8-inch grip chain. Modified control geometries are required for higher speeds. The manufacturer offers grip chains in various designs to suit the material to be transported. pb
