Food Processing Conveyor Chain and Trolleys
Poultry, red meat and packaged food processing plants run their overhead conveyor chain through washdown, cold and caustic cleaning every day. That is why Frost and Frost Links make stainless and sanitary chain, trolleys and wheels built for it.
Built for Washdown
Stainless Chain
Areas cleaned with water and chemicals need corrosion resistant chain. That is why stainless steel X-type chain is available in every size from X-248 to X-678.
Sealed Wheels
Splashproof® is a Frost seal design that acts as a double triple labyrinth for severe dirt and liquid. In addition, a wiper seal version allows relubrication without seal damage.
Poultry and Meat
Frost Links also makes food processing trolleys and conveyor products for chicken, turkey, beef and pork lines.
Consistent Spacing
Smooth Link® chain has cold-formed pins that reduce wear and variation in strand length. As a result, spacing stays consistent along the line.
