Flexicon Chain Down: Seized Pin Blocks Restart
Seized chain pin has stopped your Flexicon chain-driven equipment cold.
Why Chain Pins Seize
Corrosion and contamination pack joints tight—pins won’t move. Wear from constant load cycling locks them solid. Your line stays down until the stuck pin comes out.
Why This Happens
Corrosion builds rust between pin and sidebar, seizing the joint. Contamination and wear debris pack the interface, preventing movement. Repeated load cycling plus thermal effects tighten the fit until the pin is frozen solid—halting the chain and stopping production.
