Moline 400 Class Pintle Chain is a lightweight, moderately priced chain capable of handling average loads at slow or intermediate speeds. It is proportionately cast for balance, strength and long, efficient service, and is available in riveted or cottered construction. The head of each pin is notched to fit the sidebar locking lug which keeps the pin from rotating when the chain is in use. Closed bearing construction makes 400 Class Pintle Chain useful in conveying moderately gritty and abrasive materials.

Manufactured in Moline Promal, with a tensile strength range from 7,800 to 28,600 pounds, Moline 400 Class Pintle Chain is carefully cored for pitch accuracy with smooth bearing surfaces that reduce "break-in" wear causing pitch elongation.

400 Class Pintle Chain is available in a pitch range of 1.375 to 3.075 inches with a complete assortment of Brutaloy or cast steel sprockets.

A large assortment of attachments are available to handle a wide variety of applications. Styles A and G attachments are offered in right and left hand links.

As a drive chain, 400 Class Pintle is designed to travel in the direction of the barrel end of the links; as an elevating or conveying chain, its direction of travel should be toward the open ends of the links.
