Its simple design, with open barrel construction, minimizes pin surface contact with chain gearing face, thus reducing the probability of seizure due to corrosion and the occurrence of material build in the roots of the sprockets. The chain is quite suited, for that reason, in handling materials with a tendency to pack and corrode. Steel Pintle chain is appropriate a multitude of agricultural and industrial applications. The chain utilises all warmth treated 
components with riveted pin style.
