LK Pin Plate Holder for Stenter Chains
Pin plate holder for LK stenters. The holder is the link between the chain and the pin plate, so it carries the whole fabric tension load and has to keep the plate square to the rail. Silver finish metal, 0.6 kg reference weight, built for machines with the oil-free guide.
Key Benefits
- Keeps the pin plate square to the rail so pin grip stays even
- Metal construction sized for the LK chain mounting
- Replaces holders worn or cracked at the chain mounting
- Supplied in matched quantities for a rail section or a whole rail
Application Scenarios
- LK rails where holders have worn before the plates
- Chain overhauls where holders are renewed with the chain
- Recommissioning a used LK stenter
Who It Is For
- Dyeing and finishing mills running LK stenters
- Maintenance teams planning a chain overhaul during a shutdown
- Textile machinery service companies rebuilding rails on customer sites
Problems It Solves
- A worn holder letting the pin plate tilt, so one pin row grips harder than the other.
- New pin plates fitted to worn holders wearing out early.
- Cracked holders letting plates come loose in the heat chamber.

Guides That Mention This Part
Oil-Free or Lubricated Stenter Guides
An oil-free guide keeps lubricant away from the fabric using graphite strips and PEEK sliders. A lubricated guide uses a grease film. The chain is different for each, and mixing them is a costly mistake.

Why Fabric Leaves the Stenter Narrower Than It Should
Width loss is almost always a grip problem, not a setting problem. Work through the rail in order: brush, pins or clips, holders, chain, guide.

Stenter Chain Maintenance and Lubrication
Clean the guide and chain at least once a year, use a high temperature grease, and measure pitch over ten links before you decide to replace anything.

How do I know the holder is worn and not just the plate?

Can you make a holder from a sample?
Yes. Post us one holder and we will match the chain mounting and the plate seat.
What is the reference weight?
0.6 kg. Use it for shipping estimates, not as a fitment check.
