8. Flight Variations

9. Flight Configurations • Chain Configuration • Links are assembled in a configuration to match individual applications. • This configuration can include scavenger, cleaning or pad flights as required. • Within a complete chain, flighted links are usually supplied at every single, second or third pitch. See sketch showing typical arrangement of a ‘T’ type chain.
