Well, it mainly depends on chain wear. Did you know that if roller chains side plates get worn down by just 5% you have lost a great deal of chain strength and integrity! Using the proper chain guide will prevent this from happening thus keeping you up and running safely for a longer period of time. Downtime is a major factor when calculating a cost-saving analysis or cost-benefit analysis report, so using a roller chain guide often more than pays for its self not only with extending the chain life but with reducing downtime.

Using UHMWPE chain guides, the aim is to achieve quiet, smooth-running, and long-term functional reliability. Once the conveyor chain system stop working, it will make a huge time to repair and make the cost-benefit analysis down sharply. While the UHMWPE chain guides can guarantee its smooth running safely and help to save time and cost.
● it is high abrasion resistance, which is 1/6 of steel on outwear.
● it is resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents, will not rust at all.
● excellent low coefficient of friction even handles the worst of bulk material, still can assist in smooth and predictable flow.
● lightweight , which is 1/7 that of steel.
● it is easy to cut and machine.
● it is FDA grade material, which can be used in food industry safety.
● it is no need for oil lubrication at all, maintain cost is 0.
