TSUBAKI Top Chains
SnapCover® Chain

Steel chain used in combination with plastic covers.

Features a high allowable load while minimizing scratches to items placed directly on the chain for conveyance.

Base chain specifications:

• Standard series
• NP Series (nickel plating)
• Lambda Series (lube-free)
• SS Series (SUS304)

Features

• Has a higher allowable load than plastic block chain (7x RSP60 for RS60-SC), making it ideal for long conveyor layouts.
• Uses plastic for the covers that directly convey items, thereby preventing scratches on the items.
• Selection of six chain pitches available for use in a wide variety of applications.

Construction and connecting links

The connecting links are designed especially for SnapCover Chains.

• Connecting link plates can be removed because plastic covers are attached.
• Be aware that SnapCover Chain cannot use standard connecting links (cotter pins/spring clips).

Reference Number System

(1) Chain size: RF06B, RS40, RS50, RS60, RS80, RS100
(2) Base chain specs: Blank = Standard series, NP = NP series, LMC = Lambda series, LM = Lambda series (for RF06B only), SS = SS Series
(3) Model: SC = SnapCover Chain
(4) Plastic cover material: A = Standard series, E = Electroconducive series
(5) *CL is used only when there are connecting links.

Plastic covers

Standard series (base link)	Standard series (connecting link)	Electroconducive series
Material: Polyacetal (white)	Material: Polyacetal (light blue)	Material (base link and connecting link): Electroconducive polyacetal (black)
Used in general applications.	Connecting links can be easily identified.*	Used to prevent dust from clinging to the chain from static electricity, and to prevent electrical noise and sparks. (Volume resistivity 1 x 10 6 Ω·cm)

Cannot be used in conjunction with Electroconducive Series in order to preserve its electroconducive properties.
