Straight Sidebar Roller Chains
CAN-AM Straight sidebar roller chains are identical to standard ANSI & BS roller chains except for straight side plates. The main usage is conveyor applications where a flat side plate is required. Straight sidebar chains provide a higher fatigue resistance than their standard counterparts. Check our ANSI & BS roller chain pages for more technical information.
- Increased strength, fatigue & chain service life
- Commonly used in conveyor applications
- Can be used on standard ANSI & BS roller chain sprockets

Features
Solid Rollers
Solid rollers, allows for smooth rotation on the bushing, minimising the impact load as the chain engages the sprocket tooth.
Heat Treatment
Heat treating ensures consistent quality in all chain components resulting in optimum toughness and wear resistance.
Pre-Lubrication
Hot dipped in special lubricant ensuring all load bearing surfaces are protected increasing wear life of the chain.
Shot-Peened Parts
All chain rollers and link plates are shot-peened for greater fatigue strength.
Factory Preloading
Preloaded during assembly, minimising initial elongation of the chain.
Dimensionally Identical
CAN-AM roller chains are manufactured to ANSI & BS standards & are directly inter-changeable with other brands.
