Metric Roller Chain and Links
This chain conforms to ISO 606B and is compatible with BS 228 (British standard) and DIN 8187 (German standard).
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. For trade number 06B and up, the side plate is easy to remove for attaching them to chain.

High-Accuracy Roller Chain Wear-Indicating Gauges
Precisely measure chain elongation to see if you need to replace your chain. These gauges give a more accurate reading than alternatives because they’re designed to anchor to a roller and extend across several links. A color indicator helps you quickly measure the space between rollers. If the gauge rests on top of the chain and you see green markings, your chain doesn't need to be replaced. If it slips between two rollers and you only see red markings, it’s time for a replacement.

Idler Sprockets for Metric Roller Chain
Keep constant tension on your drive with these sprockets that press against your metric ISO roller chain to take up slack and reduce wear and vibration. They rotate freely on built-in ball bearings, which are double sealed to keep dirt out, and are for use with roller chain tensioners. All come with a finished bore that fits directly onto your shaft—no need for machining. These sprockets meet ISO 606, which is an international standard for dimensions and materials.
