Breakdown Of Corrosive Resistant Chains

Stainless Steel

The stainless chains provide the best protection against a larger range of substances as well as applications that have extreme temperatures ranges.

Nickel Plated

Nickel plated chains will be your go to option for mild & low humid applications where the strength of carbon steel is needed.

ShieldX®

Our line of ShieldX® roller chain was designed & engineered with a special coating that offers far greater protection over plated roller chains. There are several features & benefits that makes this chain the best choice for drives that require higher levels of strength and wear protection.

Plastic Chain

Plastic roller chain is ideal light-duty applications that require cleanliness or where the chain may encounter harsh chemicals. This chain almost makes a great choice for any application where weight is a primary concern. Our plastic roller chains were developed with stainless pins and plates for increased strength over all plastic chains.

Custom Solutions

With industries evolving every year, there is always a need for new solutions to tackle corrosive problems. Nitro Chain is experienced in custom chain solutions for unique situations where our standard ranges of corrosive resistant chains won't work. Contact us with your requirements.
