Schneider Electric Chain Equipment Down: Seized Pin Won’t Press Out
Your Schneider Electric chain-driven equipment is stopped cold by seized pins that refuse to move.
Why pins seize and stick
Downtime is killing your schedule and production targets.
Torching or hammering risks burns, sparks, and further damage.
Corrosion, wear, contamination, and heavy load cycling lock pins in place so they won’t budge.
Why This Happens
Chain pins seize when corrosion builds up, wear widens clearances then packs with debris, and heavy cycling plus contamination create a frozen bond.
The result is pins that standard tools can’t extract without heat or extreme force.
Equipment stays down until the pin is safely removed.
