With claims that its new X3
times longer than similar competitor chain, Donghua shares its latest innovation. X3
is a new high
performance Roller Chain which forms part of the Donghua Chain Group’s Premium range. It is aimed at sectors that use high demand drives such as Timber, Waste & Recycling and Mining & Quarrying. The new chain, which was launched in
the UK earlier this year, is designed and manufactured by the Hangzhou Donghua Chain Group on a purpose-built production line which uses new production techniques and new surface treatments. Bob Wellsbury, managing director at Donghua,

coating, optimised plate geometry and high precision stamping. Together, these elements deliver unique performance offering end-
users a first-class chain and unbeatable value for money.” New technologies make higher precision
head office in Wolverhampton boasts a busy sales office, a 25,000 square foot warehouse, a testing laboratory and a technical workshop for bespoke chain and attachment chain. He explains why X3
chain is so unique: “Our
Roller Chain is categorised into three ranges: Standard, Solution and Premium. We launched a new Solution chain in 2021 called EXL Chain which has proved popular with our distribution market, and earlier this year we launch the first chain in our Premium range – X3 “The X3
.” Chain is designed with a unique pin
stamping possible, maximising the quality of the X3
Chain. The high plate load limit is ensured by
selecting high performance material and subjecting it to isothermal heat treatment, using calibrated pin and bushing holes, and having an improved press fit between the pins and plates to guarantee maximum fatigue strength. The use of new hardening technologies and special anti-friction coating technology on the pin surface minimises the friction coefficient between the pin and the bushing, resulting in extreme wear resistance. The X3
Chain has been tested against similar
competitor chain and the results report X3 Chain has a longer service life, higher fatigue resistance and greater precision. The new X3
Chain is available in sizes in 06B
to 24B ex-stock from Donghua and is distributed through the company’s growing UK network of Approved Product Partners and Stockists.
