Chains extend service life

Iwis Drive Systems has introduced an improved generation of low-maintenance chains to the Everlast Plus series. In laboratory tests the chains with the new oil-soaked sintered bushes and a slightly modified bolt specification showed an improvement in wear lifespan of more than 300 percent. To distinguish the new chains from their predecessors, all their components are coated black. The new chains are available in sizes 06B to 16B and ANSI 40 to 160.
