Badger Barn Cleaners and Chain

BADGER BARN CLEANERS

For over 50 years BADGER has set the standards for hard working, long lasting barn cleaners. With innovation like one piece precision machined, cast iron transmission frames, Cor-Ten steel elevators, and colossal chain (along with many others) BADGER continues to be the industry standard in barn cleaner technology.

Badger puts more power into every Badger barn cleaner with transmissions that are built for durability.

Choose the transmission that meets your needs. The 580 drive, rated up to 5 HP, provides all the power necessary for most barn cleaning chores, and pulls up to 500 feet of chain. For those extra long, hard-to-pull jobs, choose the super 770, which is rated up to 7-1/2 HP and pulls up to 700 feet of chain.
Large 2-1/2" diameter drive shafts are standard
Precision-bored, one-piece heavy cast frame assures perfect alignment of upper and lower bearings
Over 25 square inches of bearing surface in both top and bottom bearings
Spiral groove lubrication in both main bearings
Pinions feature stress-proof steel pinions for strength and wear-resistance
Model 580 features high-strength alloyed cast iron gears
Gears of the Model 770 are made of ductile iron with 100,000 PSI tensile strength
Transmissions are easy to service. Shear bolts for final drive provide necessary protection against overload
New non-metallic cover prevents rust and corrosion
For strength and reliability, depend on the power of Badger barn cleaner transmissions.
Here's where durability begins.
Badger Barn Cleaner elevators are built from Cor-ten Steel! Cor-Ten steel is up to 8 times more corrosion resistant than the steel used by most competitors. It is also 20% stronger. Badger elevators are available with flat or "TIP-UP" paddle return. Simply stated, Badger Barn Cleaners last a whole lot longer than others.


Turning corners is trouble free with the Badger corner roller. Big 12" corner rollers are made of high quality cast iron with 1-1/2" greasable bronze bearings. Badger-engineered continuous lubrication means longer chain life. Every time a link passes through the "TIP UP", it gets oiled, including the pins. Wear is greatly reduced. Badger's paddle wiper wipes each individual paddle clean assuring no manure carry over. The heavy-duty design of Badger's reverse curve provides ease of operation and longer life. The curve's full bottom features 3/16" steel plate reducing gutter bottom wear and allows smooth, steady chain flow.

BADGER CHAINS
Strength and dependability are the bench marks of BADGER'S Barn Cleaner chain. Is there a difference in barn cleaner chain? YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT! From "FLAT LINK" TO "HOOK-LOK" Badger builds quality into every link.
BADGER offers two styles of FLAT LINK chain... "DURA-FORGED" and "COLOSSAL".
Dura-Forged® Chain                                Colossal® Chain
High carbon heat treated forging have thickness where it counts for extended wear life and strength.
Large diameter alloy pins (3/4"). The pins are beveled for more surface area contact while the chain goes through inclines and declines.
Pins are "double swedged" for a full tight grip and a large capped head.
Flat bars are an impressive 1/4" x 1-3/4 x 6-1 /4"
Chain is reversible for longer life and ease of installation.
Bolt on paddles and 3/4" wide wear heels for long life
10 year prorated warranty.
More steel in the forging is where it counts with substantially thicker end sections where chain wear occurs
Smooth pin bearing area makes this premium chain run like precision roller chain
High carbon heat treated steel forgings for maximum life
Slotted area where slat attaches to forging for maximum stability and strength
Bolt on paddles and 3-1/4" wear heel for easy maintenance
Large diameter alloy steel pins (7/8") for greater load capacity and extended wear
"Double Swedged" pins for a full tight grip and a large capped head
Our side bars are the thickest and widest bars ever 5/16" x 1-3/4" x 6-1/4"
Chain is reversible for extended life and ease of installation
10 year prorated warranty
