Drop forged link chains — also called forged or scraper chains — are made of heat treated high grade alloy steel (42CrMo, 20CrMnTi). Links can be fitted with plastic flights or steel scrapers, arranged vertical, horizontal or inclined. Sizes 10160 / 10160R / 12514 / 14218 / 14226 / 16025 / 20025 / 20028 cover powder, granule, flake and block handling.
