A variety of different scrapers are available for drop forged chains as well as for double drag link chains. Special-purpose types are available for horizontal, inclined, or vertical conveyors. In this context, the capacities are taken into consideration as well. Below please find some examples of steel scrapers.

Plastic profiles are made out of different materials, such as: Nylon, PU, and UHMPE. These may be used as flights or as scrapers. The profiles are available in various different versions. This page shows the most common used models.

Our plastic flights are made of wear-resistant nylon and are flexible. As the chain is carried by the plastic flights, it eliminates the steel-on-steel contact, this will lead to saving energy and a considerable noise reduction. There are various kinds of flights available: Nylon, Nylon with Glassfiber reinforcement, Zytel and FDA-quality.
