Profile steel chains

pewag ist the first hoist chain manufacturer to offer profile chains for hoists. Profile chains have several advantages, compared with round-steel-chains.

• 7% smaller chain diameter compared to round steel chains with same cross section areas. This is enabling a smaller chain drive and finally a smaller hoist

• Increased bending resistance of the intelligent profile section provides a higher fatigue resistance and higher safety factor against fatigue breakages

• Increased wear life time due to plane contact areas between chain, chain wheel and chain guide
