Why RUD Forky is the Smart
Choice for Your Business

Choosing the right conveyor accessory can transform your workflow. In fast‑paced environments, from warehouses to steel mills, every minute counts. Forky is a forked link chain solution that combines simple installation, robust forged chain links and a built-in wear indicator. Delivered by RUD India, Forky keeps your operations running smoothly while cutting maintenance headaches.

Fast, Tool‑Free Installation

Traditional chain links often demand partial disassembly of a conveyor or extra connectors. Forky slips onto tines or chain beams without removing the old chain. No tools are needed. One operator can swap out a link in seconds. Fewer steps mean less downtime and a safer work zone.

Strength from Forged Chain Links

Each Forky link is drop forged from stainless steel. This method refines the metal’s grain structure and removes internal flaws. The result is a chain link with uniform strength and superior fatigue resistance. You handle hot, heavy or abrasive materials without worrying about sudden failures.

Visible Wear Indicator

Unexpected shutdowns are costly. Forky solves this with a clear wear indicator on every link. A small window lets you see when the chain reaches its wear limit. Maintenance teams schedule replacements during planned stops instead of chasing emergency repairs. Predictable upkeep keeps conveyors online and plant managers happy.

Lightweight Design Saves Energy

Forky’s open fork shape weighs less than comparable forked link chains. Lighter links reduce drive power requirements. Over weeks of continuous operation, you’ll notice lower energy bills. Those savings add up, especially in large‑scale bulk handling systems.

Adaptable for Many Materials

Whether you move cement clinker, grain, sugar or wood chips, Forky excels at bulk material handling. Its forked link design handles dusty, flaky or fragmentary goods with minimal jamming. It is not suitable for sticky or dough‑like substances. You can incorporate Forky into horizontal, inclined or vertical conveyors without extra adapters.

Compact Footprint for Tight Spaces

Space constraints slow down many retrofits. Forky combines chain and fork in one piece so you need fewer support structures. Its slim profile allows installation in narrow aisles or low‑headroom conveyors. You avoid costly civil works and keep your line layouts flexible.

Audit‑Ready Traceability

Every Forky link carries a serial number and is supplied with a certified test report. This documentation simplifies audits, safety inspections and insurance checks. You prove compliance in seconds rather than hunting down paperwork.

Reduced Spare Parts Inventory

Forky replaces multiple connectors, links and forks with a single, factory‑tested unit. Your warehouse stocks fewer SKUs. Procurement costs fall and reorder points become simpler. When a conveyor link does wear out, the replacement process is straightforward.

Local Support from RUD India

RUD India combines global R&D with nationwide distribution. Our engineers help you choose the right Forky size for your chain pitch and load demands. Spare parts and technical advice are available across India. When you invest in Forky, you gain a partner committed to uptime and safety.
