Apron Feeder
Tough Where It Counts. Reliable Where It Matters.
Apron feeder chains are designed to move bulk materials with high impact, high abrasiveness, or large size — especially in mining, steel, cement, and power applications. Built with forged links and wear-resistant pans, these chains support slow-speed, heavy-load conveying in surge hoppers, crushers, and kilns.
At Constromech, we supply apron feeder chains built to withstand aggressive loading, corrosion, and long operational hours. Whether for new installations or replacements, our systems are trusted to perform in the most demanding bulk handling setups.
Product Construction
| Component | Description |
| Chain Link | Drop-forged steel with deep-hardened contact surfaces |
| Bush & Pin Sets | Induction hardened and precision machined for extended life |
| Apron Pans | Fabricated pans with reinforced stiffeners and overlap design |
| Sidebars | Heat-treated, weldable alloy steel sidebars for torsional stability |
| Bolting System | High-torque-grade bolts or rivets for pan mounting |
