Artos Stenter Chain With Copper Slider
Chain for Artos stenters with the oil-free guide, built with a copper slider. The copper slider is the traditional wear surface against the rail and takes high load well. The assembly is made up of connectors, U-shaped connectors, pins, PEEK bush, PEEK dust cover, screws and wear sleeves, and all of those small parts are available separately.
Key Benefits
- Copper slider takes high load against the guide rail
- Built for the Artos oil-free guide with high quality bearings
- PEEK bush and dust cover inside the assembly protect the pin
- All chain parts sold separately so a worn section can be rebuilt
Application Scenarios
- Artos rails running heavy fabric at high tension
- Chain overhauls on older Artos machines
- Mills that have had PEEK sliders wear early under heavy load
Who It Is For
- Dyeing and finishing mills running Artos stenters
- Maintenance teams planning a chain overhaul during a shutdown
- Textile machinery service companies rebuilding rails on customer sites
Problems It Solves
- A stretched chain drops fabric tension, so the cloth leaves the machine narrow even with good pins.
- Bushes that seize on the pin make the chain snatch on the guide and wear the rail.
- Waiting on an OEM chain order keeps the whole finishing line out of production.

How It Compares
| Compared With | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Artos chain with PEEK slider | Copper takes more load and is the traditional choice. PEEK runs lighter and does not need the same grease film. Choose on fabric weight and running speed. |
| Monforts chain | Different pitch and mounting. Chains are not interchangeable between brands. |
Fitting and Replacing This Part

Step 3
Clean the seat completely before fitting the new part
Step 4
Turn the rail by hand for one full pass and check free movement
Step 5
Replace in complete sets so grip and wear stay even across the machine

Industries Using This Part
Artos Stenter Chain With Copper Slider Questions
Copper slider or PEEK slider?
Copper carries higher load, PEEK runs lighter and more smoothly. Heavy fabric at high tension favours copper; light goods at speed favour PEEK.
What is in the chain assembly?
It consists of connectors, U-shaped connectors, pins, PEEK bush, PEEK dust cover, screws and wear sleeves. We sell all of those small parts on their own too.
How do I service an Artos chain?
Clean the guide and the chain at least once a year and add high-temperature grease such as DuPont, Miller or Kluber.
Can you supply Artos clips and pin plates too?
Yes. See our Artos stenter machine spare parts category.
