The rivetless chain benefits from a robust and simple construction with good strength to weight ratio making the chain type a good choice for use with overhead trolleys, scraper flights and assembly conveyors. Both Standard and X style are offered in alloy steel. The X series is bi- directional flexing both horizontally and vertically making it most suitable for overhead systems with vertical curves. There are a plethora of attachments available with this chain allowing a large variety of applications.

Maxituff is a registered trade mark of John King and refers to the up rated heat treated alloy steel uniquely available from John King.
