Grades Of Stainless Steel For Roller Chain

In the world of stainless roller chain, you'll come across many options for stainless grades with #304 being the most popular. In most situations, the 304 stainless chain offers enough protection from corrosive elements. However, there unique applications that requires superior protection than what 304 can provide. The solution would be 316 stainless steel roller chain, which can handle a broader range & higher concentration of substances. Nitro Chain offers 316 stainless roller chain in the full selection of sizes by quotation.

Stainless Steel Roller Chain For Extreme Temperatures

Stainless has extraordinary temperature resistance making it a great option extreme cold or hot environments. We suggest staying within the recommend range for AISI 304 stainless (listed below), if possible, to maximize the service life. Temperatures outside of this range are acceptable, but you will experience an increased rate of wear.

Recommended Ambient Temperatures: -40°F Up To 752°F
Maximum Ambient Temperatures: -200°F Up To 1,200°F

304 Stainless Steel Magnetism

The standard material to build Nitro stainless chains is #304, which is typically referred to as non-magnetic. Due to the cold forming process of the material, it can develop slight magnetic properties, which is common in 304 stainless parts.
