WIPPERMANN
Marathon Maintenance-Free Roller Chains
Marathon Lube Free & Maintenance Free Chains
High load-bearing joints
Sealed bearing surfaces
• Also in Stainless Steel
High breaking loads to Wippermann standards*
Electro-plated components for optimum corrosion protection
*Better than DIN
The long-distance chain that NEVER EVER
needs to be lubricated.
Advantages of Marathon chain
• Up to 35 x greater service life, compared
with unlubricated standard roller chains
• No post installation lubrication required
• Clean applications, no soiling of machinery
and transported goods
•
Up to 5 x greater service life, compared with other
maintenance-free chains
Bushes consist of a new type of sintered
metal of high compression strength
treated with special lubricant
Application
• Bushes are longer than the chain link width and
have sliding contact with the outer plate. Foreign
bodies are unable to penetrate the chain joint
• Pins made of a specially coated, hardened Steel
alloy giving a low-wear and pore-free surface,
guaranteeing excellent bearing performance
• The same breaking load as
Wippermann standard chains
• All Marathon chains fit standard sprockets
areas of Marathon chains
• Temperature range from -0°C to +100°C. Up to 250°C
with special lubricants (after consultation)
Speeds up to 150 m per min.
