Ramsey Products has been specializing in the manufacture and support of a wide range of industrial silent chain (inverted tooth) and sprockets for use in industrial power transmission and conveying applications for more than 85 years.

RPV Silent Chain is high performance inverted tooth chain, specifically designed to meet or exceed the capability of all other high performance chains. Capable of speeds in excess of 7000 fpm and loads exceeding 3000 hp, RPV's strength and load capacity comes from improved link and sprocket designs. Links are designed to minimize stress concentrations and to increase the amount of steel in the line of chain pull. Innovative stamping methods maximize the amount of load bearing surface in each link and greatly reduce the rate of chain elongation during operation. All links are shot peened to improve fatigue strength and produce a uniform, high quality finish.

First introduced more than 30 years ago, Ramsey standard conveyor has become the chain most often used in glass plants around the world. By using an oval pin joint designed specifically for the glass industry, standard conveyor provides trouble-free operation in most production settings. Produced exclusively by Ramsey, it includes many of the features of UltraLife but at a reduced price.

RP or RamPower series silent chain was designed to operate on sprockets manufactured with an ASME Standard tooth profile. Available exclusively through Ramsey, RamPower offers twice the power capacity of SC series chains and speeds up to 7,000 fpm. RamPower has been successfully employed in applications transmitting up to 2,500 hp and is often preferred where high loads and speeds must be accommodated in a small amount of space.

UltraLife is Ramsey's best quality conveyor chain, designed for high-speed production lines and field tested in glass plants around the world. The improved performance of UltraLife is the result of Ramsey's proprietary link and chain production techniques. This technology produces driving links that are flat and uniform, with straightedged, burr-free apertures. The straight edge of the aperture maximizes the link area contacting the pins and reduces joint bearing stresses and wear. Process controls throughout component manufacture and chain assembly ensure consistent chain pitch, uniform chain velocity, and uniform wear throughout the life of the chain. UltraLife chain has been proven to last longer than any other conveyor chain we have tested. Available in both single pin and two pin joint styles.
