Increase conveyor length and speed capability with our improved 7956B MatTop Chain. With bearing placement on outside edges of this chain, it translates sliding friction to rolling friction eliminating PV limits. Steel bearings positioned every other pitch promotes longer wear life, higher load capacity and unlimited speeds.
