Plastic Profiles

Polyslide Systems offer an extensive range of extruded and machined plastic profiles and wear strips such as under chain track profiles, plastic wear strips and plastic conveyor chain tensioners for use in power transmission, conveying, elevating and in materials handling applications.

Polyslide Profiles (Dotmar’s trade name for Extruded and Machined Plastic Profiles and Wear strips) offer unique sliding and low wear properties to help resolve these problems. Dotmar has trained technical staff to advise on standard profiles best suited to your application.

Key Benefits

  • Increased chain life
  • Noise reduction
  • Lightweight structural parts

Applications

  • Applications exist in almost every industry where transmission chain, belt or link chain are driving equipment or delivering products.
  • Highly engineered systems allow designers to short circuit traditional structured components when incorporating the range of profiles that have been developed to support and guide chain.

Traditional steel guide profiles for transmission or conveyor chain lead to heavy wear on the link plates and rollers of the chain. In order to reduce wear and frictional resistance, the chain needs to be constantly lubricated. Dotmar offers an extensive range of profiles from stock or manufactured to a customer’s drawing that utilise the unique properties of Polystone Ultra.
