Super chain comes to the UK & Ireland

Distag's Powerdrive chain is a highly successful general purpose chain which offers outstanding value for the vast majority of applications. However, the company has recognised a growing market for premium quality chain, particularly for agricultural machinery manufacturers and all heavy industry.

Sugiyama SBR (SY) super chain is said to be regarded as the ultimate roller chain, and boasts an unparalleled reputation for quality globally. It is the first choice for many blue-chip OEM companies requiring a ‘problem-solving' product for exacting, and extreme, applications.

Joe Deacon, Distag MD, commented "Sugiyama is such a revered and respected product, we are delighted to that they have chosen us to establish their presence in the UK and Ireland. It is a natural progression for us, and driven by the demands of many of our OEM partners. Hopefully, it will also give distributors access to a premium chain product – a market which has characteristically had very little choice in the past."

SY chain types available include BS Roller, ANSI Roller, Stainless Steel, Double Capacity, Double Pitch, Heavy and Super Heavy Series, Oilfield Type, Hollow Pin, Self-Lube, Maintenance Free, Sidebow and Aqua Proof.
