Type S with Roller
The TransDrive Type S with Roller is a heavy-duty industrial chain tensioner specifically designed for applications where low friction and high-speed operation are critical. Unlike the sliding block version, this model features a durable polyamide (nylon) roller that provides smooth, rolling contact with the chain, significantly reducing resistance, wear, and heat generation during operation.
This makes it especially well-suited for high-speed conveyor systems and dynamic power transmission applications, where consistent chain guidance and reliable tensioning are essential. Engineered for long-lasting performance and minimal maintenance, the Type S with Roller ensures smooth, efficient operation even under demanding industrial conditions.
Features
- Polyamide roller with an outside diameter of 40 mm, suitable for high-speed applications up to 8,000 rpm.
- Heavy tension as standard, with an optional light tension version available.
- Main body and column constructed from reinforced polyamide for strength and durability.
- Compatible with various chain sizes and configurations (simplex, duplex, triplex).
- Provides consistent chain tension, reduces vibration, and extends chain and sprocket life.
