Its simple design, with open barrel construction, minimizes pin surface connection with chain gearing face, thus reducing the likelihood of seizure due to corrosion and the occurrence of materials build in the roots of the sprockets. The chain is quite suited, for that reason, in handling materials with a inclination to pack and corrode. Steel Pintle chain is appropriate a wide variety of agricultural and industrial applications. The chain utilises all heat treated parts with riveted pin design.
