Stainless Steel Chain
Diamond produces a wide range of Single-Pitch Drive and Double-Pitch Conveyor chains manufactured in four combinations of stainless steel depending upon the specific application.

Nickel-Plated Chain
Diamond Chain produces a full line of Nickel-Plated roller chains for a variety of uses in environments where the chains are exposed to moisture. Common uses include applications exposed to the weather, high humidity or those on machines that are frequently washed down with water.

Diamond Nickel-Plated chain is different from many rust-resistant chains, because Diamond electroless nickel plates all of the components before assembly, virtually eliminating the possibility of stress-corrosion cracking. Pre-assembly plating also ensures all components are plated, which prevents internal rust from seeping out and causing contamination.

Note: These chains are not intended to resist corrosion from caustic chemicals or acids. Stainless steel chain is normally recommended for those types of applications.

Diamond ACE Chain
Diamond ACE (Anti-Corrosion Exterior) chain is uniquely designed and incorporates an electrochemically bonded, protected exterior coating that is applied to the component parts prior to assembly. Pre-assembly coating ensures all component parts are thoroughly treated, which prevents internal rust from seeping out and causing contamination.

The protective coating serves as an insulating barrier that actually oxidizes before the carbon steel base chain, thus protecting and preserving the chain's physical and structural integrity.

Common applications for Diamond ACE include exposure to weather, high humidity or on machinery that is routinely washed down with water.

Note: These chains are not intended to resist corrosion from caustic chemicals or acids. Stainless steel chain is normally recommended for those types of applications. Contact Diamond's Application Engineers for assistance in selecting the proper chain for your application.
