Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.
Conveyor chains fail when stuck or seized pins stop throughput during critical production hours.
Why conveyor chain pins seize
Dust, fines, and moisture pack into conveyor chain joints until pins freeze solid under load.
Corrosion, heat, and abrasion accelerate seizure, driving unexpected downtime when the chain locks.
A frozen pin stops the entire conveyor, forcing an immediate shutdown and emergency response.
Why This Failure Happens
General conveyor chains like C188, 81X, 667X, and C2080H trap fines, dust, and moisture between bushings and pins, accelerating corrosion and galling. Thermal cycling, load shocks, and contamination deform pin interfaces until rotation stops. Misalignment compounds wear, locking the pin and stalling the conveyor on the next load cycle.
Why Operators Choose Kingpin Breaker
Hydraulic force releases fully frozen conveyor pins fast
Zero-torch removal keeps crews safer in confined conveyor areas
Precision alignment prevents bore damage during heavy press-out
Field-portable design fits tight conveyor maintenance spaces
Works reliably on C188, 81X, 667X, C2080H, and similar for reduced unplanned downtime

How it Works
From Setup to Break in Minutes.
Real Breakdown Scenarios We Fix
C188, 81X, 667X, and C2080H conveyor chain pin frozen solid from fines pack-out stopping the conveyor mid-shift
Corroded conveyor pin won’t rotate, locking the flight and tripping overload protection
Thermal-cycled joint galls and binds, stalling the conveyor during heavy startup loads
Moisture-intruded bushing seizes pin, causing inconsistent drive torque and shutdown
Misaligned conveyor section deforms pin surfaces until the link locks under load
