In beverage, brewery, and food packaging production lines, conveying products with unstable bases, such as PET bottles, aluminum cans, and cartons, requires a conveyor surface that is flat, stable, and offers low friction. The 820 Plastic Slat Chain Conveyor is one of the most widely used components in modern chain conveyors, providing a smooth, continuous conveying surface for high-speed operations while minimizing product tipping and maximizing production efficiency.
What Is a Plastic Slat Chain 820?
The 820 Plastic Slat Chain is a straight-running modular conveyor chain manufactured from high-strength POM (Polyoxymethylene) and assembled with stainless steel pins. Featuring a standard 38.1 mm (1.5") pitch and 4 mm top plate thickness, this type of plastic chain conveyor widely used in food, beverage, packaging, and industrial production lines for conveying bottles, cans, cartons, and other packaged products.

Key Advantages of Plastic Slat Chain 820
Durable POM Construction
Manufactured from high-quality engineering-grade POM, the chain offers excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and dimensional stability, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Efficient & Energy Saving
Its lightweight construction reduces conveyor drive load, resulting in lower power consumption, smoother operation, and reduced noise levels. Compared with the 821 Plastic Slat Chain, which is designed for heavier loads and higher conveying speeds, the 820 series provides an excellent balance between performance and cost-effectiveness.
Hygienic Design
The smooth, non-stick conveying surface is easy to clean and resistant to contamination, making it suitable for food processing, beverage production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and other hygiene-sensitive industries.
Industrial Applications
The 820 Plastic Slat Chain is widely used in straight running plastic chain conveyor across various industries.
- Beverage Industry: Ideal for conveying PET bottles, aluminum cans, glass bottles, and beverage containers in bottling plants and breweries.
- Food Processing: Suitable for transporting food containers, spice jars, canned products, trays, and packaged food through inspection, filling, and packaging lines.
- Cosmetics & Household Chemicals: Used for conveying shampoo bottles, detergent containers, personal care products, and chemical packaging thanks to the excellent chemical resistance of POM.
- Packaging Industry: Handles small and medium-sized cartons, packaged goods, and finished products efficiently throughout packaging and distribution lines.
- Pharmaceutical & Chemical Industry: Suitable for clean production environments requiring chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, and easy sanitation.
