A DK conveyor chain has a structure, along with the names of the parts are stated from the drawing. These components have functions specified below.
Pins
Pins assistance all of the load acting on the chain together with plates, and once the chain is engaged using the sprockets, they slide together with bushings as bearings. They are subject to put on and particularly will have to have higher shear power, bending strength and dress in resistance. Hardened and tempered difficult steel, carburized steel, or induction-hardened steel is utilised.
Rollers
Rollers shield the chain from shocks with the sprockets, and when the chain is engaged using the sprockets, the rollers bend the chain smoothly and act to lessen the resistance once the chain runs on the rail. These are demanded to get high shock fatigue strength, collapse strength and dress in resistance. Hardened and tempered challenging steel, carburized steel or induction-hardened steel is made use of.
Bushings
Bushings are situated between pins and rollers and act as bearings for each the pins and rollers to not transmit the load obtained through the rollers directly towards the pins when the chain is engaged 
with all the sprockets. They can be essential to possess large shock fatigue strength, collapse strength and wear resistance, and usually, carburized steel is employed.
Plates
Plates are subject to repeated tension on the chain and often to huge shocks. They are really necessary to have large tensile power, and especially substantial shock power and fatigue strength. Large tensile steel is made use of for common chains and heat-treated alloy steel for heavy-duty chains.
T-pins
T-pins avert the outer plates from disengaging in the pins. They are made from soft steel since pins are usually pressed-in the outer plates and as a result no big force acts about the T-pins.
