ASA – American Standard Transmission Chains (ANSI)

American Standard transmission chains, governed by ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standards, are commonly used in North America and other regions with similar mechanical systems. These chains offer a larger pitch size and are designed to handle high loads and power transmission in water treatment operations. Key features include:

  • Pitch Sizes: ANSI chains generally have larger pitch sizes than BS chains, allowing them to support more substantial loads, making them suitable for large-scale, heavy-duty operations.
  • Durability: These chains are designed with durability in mind, ensuring they can withstand the intense mechanical forces and challenging conditions in water treatment plants.
  • Applications: ANSI chains are typically found in North American-style water treatment equipment, where high-load power transmission is required, such as in large grit removal systems, sludge handling, and rotating machinery.

Chains manufactured by Group company John King Chains Limited in England.
