Double pitch Conveyor Chain attachments refer to additional components or accessories that are attached to a double pitch conveyor chain. Double pitch chains have longer pitches (the distance between the centers of adjacent pins) compared to standard roller chains, making them suitable for conveying applications where lighter loads and slower speeds are required. These attachments can be added to the chain to provide specific functionalities or accommodate specialized applications. Here are some common types of attachments used with double pitch conveyor chains:

Extended Pins: Extended pins are attachments that extend beyond the outer plates of the chain links. They can be used to mount or secure additional components, such as guide rails, brackets, or other equipment, to the chain.

Side Plates: Side plates are flat metal plates that are attached to the outer edges of the chain links. They provide additional support and stability to the conveyed products, preventing them from sliding off the chain during transportation.

Flights: Flights are commonly used attachments in double pitch conveyor chains. They are raised projections or cleats that are welded or bolted onto the chain links. Flights help to elevate or separate the conveyed materials, allowing for more efficient handling, sorting, or incline/decline operations.

Pusher Dogs: Pusher dogs are attachments that protrude from the side plates of the chain links. They are used to push or divert products laterally on the conveyor line, enabling controlled movement or sorting of items.

Guide Rails: Guide rails are fixed or adjustable components that are mounted alongside the conveyor chain to guide the movement of the products. They ensure precise alignment and prevent product deviation or misalignment during conveying.

Attachments for Special Applications: Double pitch conveyor chain attachments can be customized to suit specific applications. This includes attachments for accumulation, merging or diverting products, product holding or stabilizing devices, sensors, or any other accessory necessary for the particular material handling process
