Gough Econ Chain-Driven Equipment Down: Seized Pin Won't Press Out
Your Gough Econ chain-driven equipment is stopped cold by seized chain pins that refuse to move.
Corrosion, wear, contamination cause seizure
Line is down, production stalled, and every minute costs thousands. Torch methods risk fire hazards and burns in tight spaces. Seized pins from corrosion, wear, and contamination block restarts and force unsafe hacks.
Why This Happens
Chain pins seize when corrosion builds up, wear creates tight fits, and contamination packs in between pin and bushing. Repeated load cycling worsens binding. This stops chain movement, halts equipment, and creates urgent downtime pressure.
