Break Seized Chain Pins Fast — No Torches. No Hammering.
Scrap Conveyor Pins Jammed During Heavy-Duty Operation
Why Pins Freeze in Scrap Conveyors
Heat, dust, and corrosion pack the joints until the pin locks solid.
Scrap conveyors run hot, dirty, and abrasive, driving corrosion and joint pack-out. Once contamination loads the bushings, pins seize hard and refuse to move. Downtime spikes fast when a frozen pin blocks the line.
Why This Failure Happens
WH132, WDH159, and ER864 pins seize when abrasive fines grind into the bushings and pack tight. Corrosion and thermal cycling weld the pin to the link, and shock loads hammer it deeper into misalignment. The joint locks solid and the conveyor stalls instantly.
