Type L with AR Sliding Block

The TransDrive Type L with AR Sliding Block is a heavy-duty chain tensioner specifically designed for industrial chain drive systems requiring robust, extended contact chain guidance. At the heart of this model is the uniquely shaped “AR” (arc profile) sliding block, which provides smooth, low-friction engagement with the chain, ensuring consistent tensioning across simplex, duplex, and triplex chain configurations. The arc-shaped profile increases the contact surface between the chain and the tensioner, making especially suitable for applications that demand stable tensioning over longer distances.

Built for strength, reliability, and long service life, the Type L with AR block is commonly deployed in conveyor systems and power transmission setups where dependable, low-maintenance chain tensioning is essential for uninterrupted operation.

Features

  • Arc profile (AR) sliding block for extended chain contact and reduced wear.
  • Suitable for simplex, duplex, and triplex chains in a wide range of sizes
  • Heavy tension as standard, with optional light tension available.
  • Main body and column constructed from reinforced polyamide for strength and durability.
  • Provides consistent tension, reduces vibration, and extends chain and sprocket life.
