Stenter Chains
Lubrication Version Chain For Bruckner Stenters
Bruckner chain built with lubrication provision, for frames that run a greased guide rather than oil-free.
Product Overview
This is the lubrication version of our Bruckner chain: a build with provision for grease at the wear interfaces, intended for frames that run a lubricated guide rather than an oil-free one.
The distinction matters when ordering. A chain built for an oil-free guide and a chain built for a lubricated guide are not the same specification, and fitting the wrong one either starves the interfaces or puts grease where it will reach the cloth.
Key Benefits
- Built specifically for lubricated guide operation, not adapted from an oil-free chain
- Grease reaches the wear interfaces as the machine was designed for
- Supplied by the section with Bruckner holders and plates
- Small parts available separately for later servicing
Who It Is For
- Bruckner users whose frames run lubricated rather than oil-free
- Engineers who have diagnosed premature wear as a lubrication specification problem
- Maintenance stores distinguishing the two chain types
Problems It Solves
- Wear interfaces being starved because an oil-free chain was fitted to a lubricated frame
- Grease ending up where the design did not intend it
- The two chain specifications being confused in the store
Application Scenarios
- Bruckner frames running a lubricated guide rail
- Machines where an oil-free chain has previously been fitted by mistake
- Plants maintaining older Bruckner frames to their original design
Technical Features
- Lubrication provision at the wear interfaces
- Connectors, U-shaped connectors, pins, bushes, screws and wear sleeves
- Built for Bruckner stenter frames
- Black finish, approximate weight 0.65 kg

Comparison With Other Options
Against an oil-free chain, this build expects grease at the interfaces and is the correct specification for a lubricated frame. Neither is a substitute for the other, so establish which guide your frame runs before ordering.
Use Guide
Confirm whether your frame runs a lubricated or oil-free guide before ordering
Check that lubrication passages are clear before fitting
Follow the machine's greasing schedule rather than an oil-free routine
Clean the guide and chain at least once a year
Use a high temperature grease such as DuPont, Miller or Kluber
FAQ
Questions About Lubrication Version Chain For Bruckner Stenters
How do I know whether my frame is lubricated or oil-free?
Look at the guide rail and the existing chain. If the design provides grease points at the chain interfaces it is a lubricated frame. If you are unsure, send photographs and we will advise.
Can I fit an oil-free chain to a lubricated frame?
We would not recommend it. The wear interfaces are designed around different assumptions and premature wear is the usual result.
What grease should I use?
A high temperature grease. DuPont, Miller and Kluber are the brands our customers use.
How often should I clean and grease?
Clean the guide and chain at least once a year, and follow the machine schedule for greasing between cleans.
Are the small parts available separately?
Yes, so the chain can be serviced rather than replaced.
Lead time?
Confirmed at quotation, since sections are built to length.

Guides That Cover This Part
What Is a Stenter Machine and How Does It Work
The stenter heat-sets and dries fabric by stretching it to width and holding it there under controlled heat.
Key Parts of a Stenter Machine
Entry section, clip or pin chains, rails, heating chambers, exhaust, blowers, temperature control, width adjustment and weft straightener.
Pin Stenter or Clip Stenter Which To Use
Clips leave no pin marks and suit thicker fabrics; pins hold more tension and run faster, to 100 m per minute.
Send A Sample And We Will Match The Profile
Seat profiles and geometry changed across frame generations, so the part itself is more reliable than a model number. We identify it and quote the matching specification.
