Chain 08B-1 with WA2 attachment

Product Description

Roller chain 08B-1 with WA2 attachment

Chain 08B-1 is a simplex roller chain compliant with the European dimensional standard, with a pitch of 12.7 mm. The chain is manufactured in accordance with the standard DIN 8187 / ISO 606; each pin, roller and plate is individually hardened, which we as a European manufacturer consider key to durability. The WA-2 attachment is mounted on selected outer links - an L-shaped bent plate used for fastening flights, dividers or other working elements of the conveyor. The Ozdowski brand hardens pins, rollers and plates individually, before the links are assembled into a complete chain - as a result, our chains are approx. 20% stronger than the standard requires and therefore more durable and robust when working under load.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How do I select the right roller chain with attachment for an industrial drive?

The key is to determine three parameters of the chain itself: pitch, inner width and roller diameter - for 08B these are 12.7 mm, 7.75 mm and 8.51 mm respectively. In addition, the type and spacing of the attachments must be matched to the machine design.

What is the WA-2 attachment and what is it used for?

The WA-2 attachment is a widened bent attachment with one mounting hole, with a larger mounting surface than A-1. It is mounted on selected links of the 08B chain to fix conveyed elements, flights, dividers or other working elements to the drive - the exact spacing of the attachments must be matched to the machine design.

What is the difference between a bent and an upright attachment?

The bent attachment (designations without the letter S, e.g. A-1, K-1, WA-2, WK-2) has a plate bent into an L shape and fixed to the side of the chain, close to its axis. The upright attachment (with the letter S, e.g. SA-1, SK-1, WSA-2, WSK-2) has a plate mounted perpendicularly, projecting upwards from the chain. The choice depends on how the flight, divider or other element is fixed in the specific machine.

Which roller chain should be chosen for operation in very dusty conditions?

In conditions of heavy dust and sand contamination, standard chains quickly seize. In such environments, it is worth considering a version with increased abrasion resistance or more frequent, dedicated lubrication - ask about the options available for this pitch.

Where is this product used?

The 08B chain with WA-2 attachment is used in conveyors, feeders and transport lines, where a flight, divider or other working element fixed to the attachment pushes or lifts the conveyed goods. Typical applications include packaging lines, sorting machines and conveyors in the food industry and agricultural machinery.
