The chain people
Supplying, cutting and assembling industrial chain for UK industry, from one warehouse in Malvern, with the specialists on the end of the phone.
Stockist, cutter, builder
Three things under one roof. Not many suppliers do all three.
| What | How it works |
|---|---|
| UK stock | British Standard, ANSI and conveyor chain held in Malvern. Order by 1pm for same-day dispatch and next-day delivery, or collect |
| Made to measure | Popular sizes held in 150ft+ bulk coils, cut to your exact pitch count with connecting links fitted, and your spec kept on file for reorders |
| Assembled in-house | Bespoke and attachment chain assembled and modified in our Malvern workshop from stocked links and components, with sprockets and gears machined to our specification |
| Specialist ranges | Sole UK distributor for the MAXTOP engineered specialist ranges: sawmill, self-lube, high-strength stainless steel and more |
| Technical support | Chain identification, wear checks and drive matching from people who handle chain all day |
MAXTOP® — Merley Chains is the sole UK distributor
Our specialist ranges are engineered by MAXTOP, the premium brand of Ming Chang (MCC), a Taiwanese chain manufacturer established in 1977 and running ISO 9001:2015-certified factories. We are its sole UK distributor: the MAXTOP specialist ranges are held and supported from our Malvern warehouse.
Straight answers, right parts, kept promises
You don't need sales patter. You need the right chain, on time, at a fair price, from someone who will tell you when a spec is wrong for your line. That is how we work:
- A specialist answers the phone, not a ticket queue
- If a cheaper standard part does the job, we'll tell you
- Your specifications stay on file, so reorders match every time
- If we can't supply it, we'll usually know who can
Sawmills and timber processing, packaging and wire-belt lines, food processing, agricultural and harvesting machinery, motorsport, OEM machine builders and general manufacturing, from single links to full drives.
Put us to the test
Send us your hardest chain problem: the obsolete one, the odd pitch, the one nobody stocks any more. That is the work we like.
