Ramsey Products - Silent Chain Solutions for Industry

• Typical conveying chains
• Silent Chain for Power Transmission
• Ramsey has manufactured silent chain for more than 80 years.

Silent chain drives are capable of transmitting power with low noise, high efficiency, and reduced vibration, at speeds and loads that exceed the capability of other belts and chains. There are many styles of silent chain and Ramsey offers a wide range of designs for different application requirements and budgets. Almost all Ramsey silent power transmission chains utilize efficient, quiet, two-pin roller bearing joints; technology which has been shown to outperform conventional, round pin joints.* These chains can be found in a wide variety of demanding industrial applications and similar designs are used in 4 wheel drive automobiles and NASCAR racing engines.

In addition to our standard product lines Ramsey also offers custom, made to order chains and sprockets, as well as replacements for silent chain from other manufacturers.
