Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.
Seized conveyor chain pins from impact loads are stopping production and burning valuable hours.
Why Pins Seize in Recycling
Impact loads, dust, and corrosion wedge the pin tight and lock the joint solid. Downtime climbs fast as production stalls and maintenance fights a frozen pin. Hydraulic removal is the only reliable way to break the bind safely and quickly.
Why This Failure Happens
Impact shocks deform bushings and force contaminants into WH132, WDH159, and ER864 joints. Abrasion and corrosion pack the link tight, and thermal cycling galls the pin in place. The joint locks, seizes, and stops the conveyor immediately.
