Custom Conveyor Chain Down: Seized Pins Won't Press Out

Seized chain pins have stopped your Custom Conveyor equipment cold.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Why Chain Pins Seize

Your line is down and pressure is mounting to restart.

Torch cutting risks damage and creates safety hazards.

Frozen pins won't move from corrosion, wear, or contamination.

Why This Happens

Corrosion builds up over time, locking pins in place. Wear and contamination pack the joints, preventing movement under load. Thermal cycling and pack-out seize pins completely, halting chain operation.
