Recognition by South African industries that locally manufactured conveyor chain, produced to global quality standards, is far more cost effective and more rapidly available than imported equivalents, has pushed demand for Renold Crofts conveyor chain to unprecedented levels.
Shown on the cover is specialised heavy chain recently manufactured for a municipal application. The chain is expected to last up to three times longer than the OEM chain it replaces.
Renold Crofts' manufacturing operation is turning around large volumes of specially engineered chain for a variety of local industries. Standard roller chain is 2"" to 6"" pitch, from 6000lbs to 30 000lbs, but deep link chain is also available and Renold Crofts is able to supply any variation in pitch from the standard.
