Product Description

Transmitting mechanical power automobile duplex plastic roller cleaner chainsaw bike Chainsaw Chain pump Bicycle bike drive chain

Definition and Basic Function
A drive chain (or power transmission chain) is a roller-connected mechanical component used to transfer rotational power from one shaft to another. It consists of interconnected metal links that mesh with sprockets to form a positive drive system with minimal slip.

Key Benefits
High efficiency (98% power transmission efficiency)
Compact design (space saving compared to belt drive)
Durable construction (heat-treated steel for long lasting durability)
Precise speed ratio retention (no slip)
High torque capacity (suitable for heavy loads)

Main Components

Component	Function	Material
Inner Links	Contain bushings	Carbon steel
Outer Links	Hold pins	Alloy steel
Rollers	Reduce friction	Case-hardened steel
Pins	Connect links	Chrome-plated steel
Bushings	Protect pins	Sintered steel

Common types of transmission chains

Roller chain (most common)
Standards: ANSI (US), ISO (metric), BS (British)
Series: 25 (light duty) to 240 (heavy duty industrial)

Silent (inverted tooth) chain
Features: smooth and quiet operation
Applications: automotive timing transmission, high-speed transmission
Plate chain
Structure: rollerless, parallel plates
Use: forklifts, lifting equipment
Engineering steel chain
Features: extra heavy duty
Applications: mining, oil drilling platforms

Technical specifications
Pitch: pin spacing (1/4 inch to 3 inches)
Width: inner plate spacing
Tensile strength: 1,500 pounds to more than 100,000 pounds
Speed limit: usually ≤ 3,000 rpm

Industrial Applications

Industry	Typical Use
Automotive	Timing chains, transmission drives
Agriculture	Combine harvesters, tractors
Manufacturing	Conveyors, production line drives
Construction	Excavators, cranes
Energy	Wind turbines, oil pumps

Maintenance best practices

Lubrication: Regular oil bath or drip lubrication
Alignment check: Prevents uneven wear
Tension adjustment: 2-4% of chain length
Wear monitoring: Measure elongation (maximum 3%)

We also provide Sprockets.
