TSUBAKI

Heat Resistant Lambda Chain (LMDK-LMCK) and Lambda Food Grade Chain (LMC-FG) have been combined in the new KF Series

LAMBDA CHAIN KF SERIESilbd8 LUBE FREE CHAIN • Bushes are impregnated with a

special NSF-Hl certified lubrication

Due to the special NSF-H1 certified lubrication impregnated bushes, Lambda Chain® KF Series is usable in a wide temperature range (from room temperature to 230°C), and for food product applications while at the same time being kind to the environment.

• "KF" is stamped onto the chain's inner or outer plates. *Offset links are specially handled.

o Running Time KF Series has a wear life equal to or greater than Food Grade Lambda Chain and is over ten times that of Small Size Carbon Steel Conveyor Chain. (0.5% wear elongation comparison, in-house test results)

With lubrication that does not degrade or vaporize at high temperatures (150°C-230°C), KF Series enjoys the highest anti-wear performance in high temperature applications. ;J\ Never use KF Series chain in conditions over

Application Examples for KF Series Lambda Chain

~ Perfect for inside furnaces Furnace

, where maintenance is difficult! Ambient Temperature: -170°C

Semiconductor Board Conveyance Through Furnace Semiconductor boards are washed in a previous process and then dried in the furnace. (Hot air is blown down from above to dry the boards). Normally lubrication quickly vaporizes and wear life is met, but Lambda Chain KF Series chain enjoys a long wear life even when conveying through high temperature furnaces.

Semiconductor Industry

~ Usable inside and outside of ovens! , Great results for food conveyance!

Ambient Temperature: -170°C

Continuous Oven Conveyor Great results in high temperature ovens! Lambda bushes impregnated with NSF-Hl grade lubrication can be used in continuous conveyance from room temperature to high temperature environments (230°C). Especially for layouts where lubrication is impossible, KF Series chain provides by far the best results for your application.
