Chains and sprockets
March 1st 2008

Wyko, an Eriks company, distributes the Fenner Plus range of chain and sprockets.

The solid rollers of the Fenner Plus transmission roller chain are manufactured to achieve a high surface hardness and ensure high wear resistance. This is said to boost the chain's performance in hostile environments.

Shot peened plates help extend chain life further. The process relieves the stresses that build up during manufacture and reduces the likelihood of fatigue failure in the field. As the chain plates are punched progressively, hole concentricity and accuracy of both diameter and pitch is maintained.

This results in a quiet, accurate mesh with sprockets, and eases pin extraction when splitting the chain.

Chain pins are specially case hardened to ensure resistance to abrasion from dust and debris is maximised, which helps minimise chain stretch. The chain is delivered pre-tensioned.
