Mining IndustryTsubaki Examples of Use by Industry and Application
Mining IndustrySurface Mining
To access profitable material deposits located near the surface, heavy machinery and blasting techniques are used to remove overburden soil and rock which would normally impede extraction of materials.
Drill Rigs
Drill rigs create deep surface holes which are then filled with explosives and blasted to allow for the removal of overburden.

Super Long Length Formation for Large Size Roller Chain
As chain size increases, so does the burden of connecting it for the user. By connecting and delivering chains of the desired longer length, we can increase your work productivity and help maintain a safe working environment.
APP Series – Surface Treated Drive Chains
APP Chains are ideal for atmospheres that readily promote corrosion. Because equipment is used outdoor, rain can infiltrate equipment, creating conditions that promote pitting corrosion.

Reclaimers
Stacker reclaimers are popular when heavy industrial processes require large stockpiles of raw material.
Stacker Reclaimer Chain
Reclaimer Chain and flight assemblies function like scraper conveyors, minus the trough, with flight blades that push material toward a belt feeding conveyor.
Improved Dust Resistance
Tsubaki developed a special labyrinth construction that shuts out debris from the outboard rollers. Sufficient rotation performance is maintained since there is no contact between extended pins and outboard rollers.
FB Series Large Size Conveyor Chain
Tsubaki FB Series large size conveyor chain has a unique mechanism to prevent chain elongation. It features a solid lubricant that is bonded between pins and bushes, and a special seal between outer and inner link plates.
