ValuTrac™ straight and corner modules are designed to guide side flexing steel and plastic conveyor chains. ValuTrac has proven to be a cost effective improvement over fabricated straight and corner wear strips. ValuTrac is manufactured with state of the art computer controlled machinery, assuring parallel module sides and a smooth uniform chain guiding surface. When it is necessary to modify or replace a guideway, ValuTrac's modular design will make the job easier. ValuTrac's quality and consistency assure conveyor chain guiding that is reliable and long lasting. Selection of Materials Our standard series ValuTrac is precision machined from Nolu-BR, a black, proprietary blend of UHMW resins, or Nolu-S, a grey, self lubricating UHMW blend. These materials maintain excellent chemical and corrosion resistance, while providing low friction, superior rigidity, and resistance to wear. ValuTrac is also available in Nolu-SR for applications requiring greater wear resistance, surface hardness, and lubricity due to adverse environmental conditions. Cost Savings The modular design of ValuTrac™ significantly reduces fabrication time. Fewer parts require fewer fasteners, fewer connections and fewer supports. The result is an overall time and cost savings. For specific coefficients of friction and operating temperatures, please see the technical information on page 465.

It is a proprietary blend of resins and reground UHMW that maximizes wear and friction properties for most applications. Nolu-S is a blend of UHMW and other dry lubricants that maintains good wear characteristics while significantly reducing the track's coefficient of friction. Nolu-SR combines the Nolu-S features with a much harder, longer wearing composition which can be used in most high-speed/ high-load applications previously requiring Nylatron material.

It is a proprietary blend of resins and reground UHMW that maximizes wear and friction properties for most applications. Nolu-S is a blend of UHMW and other dry lubricants that maintains good wear characteristics while significantly reducing the track's coefficient of friction. Nolu-SR combines the Nolu-S features with a much harder, longer wearing composition which can be used in most highspeed/high-load applications previously requiring Nylatron material. 45° 25° 5° 65° 4-1/2 chain curve 32° 85° 58° 7-1/2 chain curve 6° 84° 32° 58° 6° Nolu-SR (inside) and Nolu-BR Other material Sprockets, Wear Strips, Chain Guides TM 84° Nolu-SR (inside) and Nolu-S Nolu-SR Most wear occurs on the inside portion of tracks. In some situations where Nolu-SR is necessary, ValuTrac III™ is an economical alternative to solid Nolu-SR curves.
