Swag, I think I have mentioned this on the forums before....The only way to truly get those chains clean is to use a foaming oven cleaner. It requires several applications to get them completely clean. Also, you need to remove the tracks and clean t

At a previous job we had a kit to splice the belts. It was a clamping and squeeze device and a soldering iron with a flat blade. You would cut the ends for a suare edge, put the belt in the clamp unit with a small gap. Use the iron to melt both en

Tsk tsk, UIC... how the mighty have fallen... now owned by financial partners who do not know the industry and who will be eager to recoup an investment in an aging manufacturing industry which sorely needs new and strong global management... Not men

Hi Lloyd (did I just stutter?), While I do love Steve's response, I must add that solder is not a very strong metal. And technically, it's sole purpose is to provide an electrical connection. It's a bad choice for mechanical connections, yet every

HI John, I use wave fixtures with titanium inserts. So far I have not seen any problem with walls about 0.010" thickness and 0.120" tall (or deep depending how you see it)...The Titanium-composite interface is also very strong (as long as you have e
