The GLR chain offers:

  • High tensile strength for heavy-duty conveying
  • Strong anti-shearing capability under load
  • Excellent wear resistance due to heat treatment
  • Stable performance in continuous operation
  • Smooth conveying and reliable system operation

The chain also has a well-finished surface, ensuring both durability and a clean appearance.

Application

The GLR scraper conveyor chain is mainly used in:

  • U-type scraper conveyors
  • TGSU arc scraper conveyor systems
  • Grain and feed conveying lines
  • Bulk material handling systems
