Food Grade Stainless Steel Products Now Available from Triangle
When great design and innovative material combine, the benefits of both are only strengthened. The food processing industry has found a product solution that unifies hygiene and strength with Triangle's proven pillow block design architecture and the corrosion resistance of stainless steel.
Pillow block bearings are typically used in conveying machinery, cutting and slicing machines, packaging mechanisms and in other environments where sanitation is a priority. Few metals can tolerate excessive moisture and washing, along with chemical interaction. Stainless steel, while having a higher initial cost, is corrosion resistant and an easy-cleaning material.
However, this initial cost is compensated by Triangle's cost-lowering stamping process. Through this manufacturing process, the high strength and hygienic metal surface is maintained, but the cost is significantly lower. Triangle reduces material thickness while retaining the strength and robustness of the steel, all while utilizing a cost-effective manufacturing method. The benefits of this process range from obvious cost reduction to a more lightweight product that will positively affect shipping costs and assembly.
Triangle can provide a full solution for your food-grade needs including a bearing and housing. These products can be configured for use with a food grade ball and nylon or bronze bearings. The housings are available for individual purchase, allowing the manufacturer to supply a bearing.
Aesthetic benefits include a sleek, modern appearance that will complement existing machinery. This non-porous surface will not chip or pit, it will maintain its sheen even in damp conditions.
