1873/1874T Rubber Top Plate Top Chain
The rubber-top plate chain adds contact strips above the carrying plates. The strips present a different contact surface to the product while the base chain drives the linked assembly.

Check Where the Base Meets the Strips
A recessed or ribbed product base may contact the raised strips unevenly.
Add Contact Above the Plate Surface
The strip attachment raises the product contact above the surrounding plate. A product resting on those strips encounters a different contact pattern from one resting across a plain carrying plate.
The strip position matters as much as the outside plate width. Check the useful contact zones beneath the product and how they pass across successive links through a curve. The rubber-top description does not establish a friction coefficient or an incline rating.

Compare Strip Height and Base Contact
Use a product-base section to locate contact on the strips. Review the receiving conveyor height against the top of the attachment rather than against the plate below it.
Frictional Contact During Guided Transport
Rubber strips are a candidate where a product needs contact above the plain carrying plate. A broad base can bridge several strips, while narrow feet need their contact positions checked individually.
A stopped product may also experience more drag from a friction surface. Review both conveying and waiting conditions, including how the product releases at discharge, before choosing the attachment pattern.

Review the Rubber Top Arrangement
Send a top and underside photograph, product-base dimensions, chain length and quantity. Identify the installed plate-chain variant and operating surface conditions for CSTRANS to compare the attachment.
