Heavy-Duty Performance Engineered for Agricultural Conveying
Why Choose S38 Series Chains over Standard Transmission Chains?
The S38 Series Steel Agricultural Conveyor Chain is specifically designed to perform well in high-load, low-speed, abrasive continuous-material handling conditions, in contrast to conventional drive chains that are primarily made for high-speed power transmission.
Enhanced Wear Resistance for Conveying: Built with solid rollers and precision-drawn bushings to withstand high friction caused by continuous material flow (grains, soil, and crop residue).
Superior Shock Load Resistance: Heat-treated alloy steel sidebars absorb sudden impact loads during peak harvesting operations without permanent elongation or sudden failure.
Optimized Pitch Stability: High-precision manufacturing ensures consistent pitch spacing across long conveyor lines, reducing strain on drive motors and preventing chain sagging.

Applications
This C210AF1 combine chain is widely applied to a full range of agricultural equipment.
It is a key component for combine harvesters, working reliably on feeder houses and grain elevators during crop harvesting.
It also fits perfectly on corn and maize harvesters as well as threshers to support continuous material transportation.
Besides, the chain is ideal for various agricultural conveyors, elevators and feeders on farms.
Thanks to its superior tensile strength and sturdy structure, it is well-suited for all kinds of heavy-duty farm machinery that needs to withstand heavy loads and frequent operation in tough field conditions.
Surface Treatments & Field Corrosion Protection
Agricultural conveyors work under harsh conditions, including high humidity, moist soil, acidic crop juices, and abrasive dust. H&H Chain provides a variety of specialist surface finishing options to extend service life and prevent premature rust:
Dacromet Coating (Recommended for Outdoor Machinery): Provides exceptional salt spray resistance, heat tolerance, and superior corrosion protection without hydrogen embrittlement.
Zinc Plating (Yellow / White): Cost-effective protection against moisture and mild outdoor exposure.
Nickel Plating: Ideal for agricultural food processing applications requiring hygiene and high wear resistance.
Shot Peening & Pre-lubrication: All S38 chains undergo heavy shot-peening to increase fatigue strength and are pre-dipped in high-viscosity synthetic grease for immediate field deployment.
Matching S38 Sprockets & System Components
Paired drive systems are essential for preventing uneven chain pitch stretch and early tooth wear. We offer cast and precisely machined S38 Matching Sprockets that are designed to work flawlessly with our chain line.
Sprocket Material Options: C45 Medium Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, or Hardened Alloy Steel.
Tooth Hardening: High-frequency induction hardened teeth (HRC 45–55) to extend wear life under heavy loading.
Bore Configuration: Available in Plain Bore, Finished Bore with Keyway & Setscrews, or Taper-Lock Bushing hubs.
