Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.
Dust-Seized Conveyor Pins Halting Production in Gypsum Operations
Why Pins Seize in Gypsum Plants
Dust loading packs into every joint. Heat, abrasion, and corrosion lock pins solid and stall the line. Downtime climbs fast when dust-driven seizure stops the conveyor. You need them out now.
Why This Failure Happens
Gypsum conveyor chains like WH132, WDH110, and WS series trap fine dust that compacts around the pin and bushing. Abrasion, moisture, and thermal cycling create galling and corrosion that seize the pin. Load shocks then deform the link, locking the pin so it can’t press out in the field.
Why Operators Choose Kingpin Breaker
Faster removal with no-torch safety advantage
Hydraulic force blasts out seized pins cleanly
Precise alignment prevents link damage
Field-portable tool handles dust-packed systems
