Our range includes simplex and duplex roller chain configurations in a variety of sizes and pitches, allowing customers to select the appropriate chain according to load, speed, drive arrangement, and equipment requirements.

Available options include 35-series chain with a 9.525 mm pitch, 40-series chain with a 12.7 mm pitch, 50-series chain with a 15.875 mm pitch, 60-series chain with a 19.050 mm pitch, and 80-series chain with a 25.4 mm pitch, alongside additional sizes for specialised applications.

When choosing American standard chain, important considerations include pitch, roller dimensions, simplex or duplex configuration, working load, operating speed, sprocket compatibility, lubrication, and environmental conditions. Correct alignment, tensioning, and routine lubrication can also help minimise friction, reduce uneven wear, and extend the working life of both the chain and sprockets.
