Custom Conveyor Chain Down: Seized Pins Won't Press Out
Your Custom Conveyor line is stopped because chain pins are seized solid.
Why Chain Pins Seize
Corrosion and contamination pack pins tight—won't move under normal press force.
Wear from load cycling lets debris build up, freezing pins in place.
Downtime mounts fast while teams fight stuck pins with risky heat.
Why This Happens
Corrosion from moisture and contaminants bonds pins to bushings over time. Wear and repeated load cycling allow material pack-out, increasing friction until pins lock solid. The result: chain links won't separate, blocking repairs and keeping equipment down.
