How long does the Roller Chain last?
Roller chains in your conveyors (and their sprockets) need regular inspection and service. Have maintenance check them on a regular basis for proper tension,
lubrication, and alignment. In a correctly sized and installed drive, roller chains can be expected to last for approximately 15,000 hours.
How often should roller chains be lubricated?
For oil bath, slinger disc, or oil stream lubrication, be sure that all orifices are clear and that the oil is being directed onto the chain correctly.
Change the oil after the first 50 hours of operation and after 500 hours thereafter (200 hours in severe service).
