Pin Holder for Artos Stenter Chain
Pin holder for Artos stenter chains. The holder is what carries the pin plate on the chain, so it takes the full fabric tension the pins collect and has to keep the plate square to the rail. Black finish metal, 0.65 kg reference weight, built for Artos machines with the oil-free guide.
Key Benefits
- Carries the pin plate square to the rail so pin grip stays even across the width
- Sized for the Artos chain mounting
- Replaces holders worn or cracked at the chain seat
- Supplied together with matching Artos pin plates
Application Scenarios
- Artos rails where holders have worn before the plates
- Chain overhauls where holders are renewed with the chain
- Recommissioning used Artos machines
Who It Is For
- Woven fabric finishers running Artos clip stenters
- Maintenance teams rebuilding a clip rail
- Machinery dealers holding clip stock for local mills
Problems It Solves
- A worn holder letting the pin plate tilt so one pin row grips harder than the other.
- Cracked holders letting plates come loose inside the heat chamber.
- New pin plates wearing out early because the holder underneath them has play.

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