Enclosed Track Chain Cleaner
DL-20 Brush, Industrial Chain Cleaner
Digilube’s DL-20 is an economical Enclosed Track, Non-Powered Conveyor Brush designed to clean the chain of Unibilt, Rapidflex, Zigzag, High Performance E-Chain, Allied Conveyors and many more.
Specifically, the three-arm design contains 6″ wide crimped steel brushes that clean the top and both sides of the chain. As the chain travels through the unit, adjustable tension bolts allow the brushes to maintain consistent drag, effectively scraping debris from the chain surface. Additionally, optional debris trays are available to help capture and contain removed material, further improving housekeeping and maintenance efficiency.

Installation of the Industrial Chain Cleaner
| STEP 1 | Place the DL-20 on the track facing the proper direction |
| STEP 2 | Mark the center location of all the brushes |
| STEP 3 | Remove the DL-20 |
| STEP 4 | From the center marks, measure out 5 inches in both directions. This will give you a 10 inch opening for your brushes |
| STEP 5 | Cut out the 10 inch openings leaving a small lip on the side for strength (see diagram). |
| STEP 6 | Place the DL-20 back on the track. Using 1/4″-20 set screws tighten the DL-20 onto the conveyor track. |
| STEP 7 | Tight retainer bolt (parts A) on each brush until the brush begins to drag and still rotating (it is recommended that lactate is used on both threads to maintain proper tension. |
| STEP 8 | Adjust the tension on the vertical tension bolt (part B) so that the brush does not begin to flair. |
Replacement Brushes
To maintain optimal performance, it’s recommended to change non-powered brushes every year. If the debris contains any moisture, we recommend changing your brushes sooner as the dirt will build-up on your brushes over time.
