1. INTRODUCTION TO TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN ISO min. Tensile Strength TSUBAKI min. Tensile Strength TSUBAKI av. Tensile Strength 3. Average Tensile Strength as per TSUBAKI Standardisation This is a fracture load reading obtained after a long period of actual tensile strength testing of a large number of chain strands. Of course, when any given strand of roller chain fractures, this value may be higher or lower, so it does not represent a guaranteed value. 2. Minimum Tensile Strength as per TSUBAKI Standardisation This is a minimum value determined by statistical processes at TSUBAKI. If a...

1. INTRODUCTION TO TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN 7. Ball Drifting Process Shot Peening increases resistance to: • fatigue failure • corrosion fatigue • hydrogen assisted cracking • cavitation erosion • stress corrosion cracking • galling • fretting Ball Drifting Repetitive load Residual compressive stress Repetitive load Residual Compressive Stress Ball drifting is the process of pressing a hardened steel ball through a hole in an already hardened steel plate. The goal of this process is to create local plastic deformation and effectively add compressive stress to the walls of the hole. Besides...

1. INTRODUCTION TO TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN Roller Chain Structure Roller Chain Structure 1. Three Basic Dimensions Pitch, Roller Diameter and Inner Width are known as the “Three Basic Dimensions of Roller Chain.” When these three dimensions are identical, roller chains and sprockets are dimensionally compatible. 2. Basic Parts Link Plate The plate is the component that bears the tension placed on the chain. Usually this is a repeated loading, sometimes accom panied by shock. Therefore, the plate must not only have great static tensile strength, it must also hold up to the dynamic forces of...

Spring Clip Connecting Link Cotter Pin Connecting Link Spring Pin Connecting Link Cotter Pin Connecting Link Multi-Strand (2-strand shown) Intermediate Plate(s) Link Plate Pin Link and Intermediate Plate The pin link consists of two pins that have been press fit into two pin link plates. In case of multi-strand roller chain up till size 08B, an intermediate plate is added to the pin link. In case of multistrand roller chain above size 08B, two intermediate plates are added to the pin link. The intermediate plates are slip fit for standard roller chain and press fit for SUPER roller...

1. INTRODUCTION TO TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN ONE Pitch Offset Link (OL) Single Strand TWO Pitch Offset Links (2POL) Single Strand Offset Link Plate Pin Offset Links An offset link is used when an odd number of chain links is required. Different types are available: One pitch offset link (OL) The pin and two plates are slip fit. The maximum allowable load is 35% (applicable to ANSI chain) lower than the chain itself. Two pitch offset link (2POL) Two pitch offset links are the combination of a roller link and an offset link connected with a rivet pin. The maximum allowable load for ANSI chain is...

2. ORDERING TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN When ordering TSUBAKI roller chain, please specify the chain size and material as well as the chain length and the installation position. For product codes and specifications, see the model identification examples below and dimension tables in Catalogue 1, Drive Chain. With the exception of application specific chain, TSUBAKI roller chain is stocked by unit. The standard unit length for BS/DIN chain is 5 meter, while the standard unit length for ANSI chain is 3.05 meter (10 feet). The total length of each unit includes one connecting link. Please purchase...

2. ORDERING TSUBAKI ROLLER CHAIN 2.2 Specific Ordering Procedure for Chain Length with an even Number of Links A connecting link is supplied on one end of each unit and an inner link is supplied on the other end. (a) Example of 8 links RS12B-1 including the connecting link (b) Example of 20 links riveted endless chain RS50-1 (please specify “rivet endless”). There will be no CL supplied in this case. Specific Ordering Procedure for Chain Length with an odd Number of Links Please always specify the formation. Be careful with chain types for which there are no OL’s. In case of an unspecified...
