Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.
Frozen chain pins in grain elevators lock the entire system and demand immediate removal.
Why Pins Freeze in Grain Elevators
Dust, moisture, and corrosion bind heavy chain joints until the pin freezes solid. Thermal cycling tightens the interface and stalls the leg instantly. Production stops the moment frozen pins refuse to move.
Why This Failure Happens
Corrosion, moisture intrusion, and abrasive dust load WH132, WH110, WDH102, and ER864 joints until the pin-to-bushing interface galls and locks. Thermal cycling shrinks clearances and clamps the pin immobile. The frozen joint stops the chain, jams the boot or head, and halts material flow.
