Slat Top Chains
Slat Top Plastic Chains are a type of conveyor chain used mainly in the Food and Packaging Industry for conveying of various container types. We manufacture a very wide range of types and sizes, these are grouped into diffrent sub-type families as listed on the left.
Please select the sub-type groups for further information. These chains are produced to international dimension standards which are commonly used throughout the industry.
Straight Running
Comprehensive range of standard Slat Top Chains.
Used for bottle, can and packaged products transportation.
Side Flexing Tab
Comprehensive range of standard Slat Top Chains. Used for bottle, can and packaged products transportation. Tab hold down system for curves.
Side Flexing Bevel

Side Flexing Magnetic
Commonly used within beverage and bottling industries to ensure reliable stable container handling. Chains used together with magnetic hold down conveyor track systems to ensure chain flights remain flat and do not tilt or lift on curved conveyor sections.
Snap-On Chains
Ideal for the Beverage, Container (bottles, cans) and Packaging Industry.
Snap-On Chains are designed with overlapping flights assembled on special roller chains with extended pins. This is an advantage at high speeds as it reduces noise levels.
Overlapping flights are an advantage where people work at tray conveyors; they ensure there are no vertical gaps between the flights so nothing can get caught.
All Snap-On versions can be delivered either with a stainless Steel Chain (SS304) or a carbon Steel Chain.
