Extended-Life Maintenance-Free ANSI Roller Chain and Links




A rubber ring seals grease between the bushings and pins and keeps out dust and other contaminants. Because it is self-lubricating, this chain requires less maintenance than standard ANSI roller chain.
Connecting links are also known as master links. They're used to join the ends of a chain length. The side plate is easy to remove for attaching to a chain. Adding-and-connecting links are also known as half links and offset links. They can join chain that requires an odd number of links. The side plate is easy to remove for attaching to chain.

Corrosion-Resistant Maintenance-Free ANSI Roller Chain and Links




This self-lubricating nickel-plated steel chain has better corrosion resistance than steel chain and does not require regular maintenance. It has oil-embedded bushings and oil-coated pins.
Connecting links are also known as master links. They're used to join the ends of a chain length. The side plate is easy to remove for attaching to a chain. Adding-and-connecting links are also known as half links and offset links. They can join chain that requires an odd number of links. The side plate is easy to remove for attaching to chain.

ANSI Roller Chain and Links for Flat-Belt Pulleys



Also known as leaf chain and counterbalance chain, this chain is used with pulleys rather than sprockets for low-speed pulling and as counterweight chain for machine tools, elevator and oven doors, and forklift masts. Made of interlaced plates held together by rivet pins, it has a higher tensile strength than roller chain and is used with flat pulleys instead of sprockets.
When servicing worn leaf chain, replace the entire chain—do not splice chains together or mix old and new chain.
Clevis connecting links attach your chain to a clevis.
ISO 4347 chain meets an international standard for leaf chain.
