Hi-Roller Chain Down: Seized Pin Won't Press Out
Your Hi-Roller chain-driven conveyor is stopped by a frozen chain pin.
Why chain pins seize
Production is stalled until that pin moves. Torch attempts risk chain damage and safety issues. Pins won't budge from built-up corrosion and wear.
Why This Happens
Corrosion from moisture and contamination binds pins in bushings. Wear and load cycling allow debris pack-out that locks pins solid. Thermal changes and contamination accelerate seizure, halting chain movement.
