Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.

When a seized chain pin stops a cement line, every minute costs production.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Why Pins Seize in Cement Plants

Heat, dust, and abrasion pack into the chain joints and lock the pin solid. Downtime escalates fast when a frozen pin stalls a drag conveyor or bucket elevator. Thermal cycling and heavy load shocks make the failure sudden and severe.

Why This Failure Happens

WH132, WDH159, and ER864 chain joints load with dust, fines, and clinker until the bushing galls and locks to the pin. Heat and thermal cycling cook in the contamination and force metal-on-metal adhesion. The seized joint stops the conveyor instantly and kills throughput.
