Tsubaki Lambda Chain RS Double Strand Compatible/Lambda Roller/RS160-LMD-1

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the specifications and features of the RS Double Strand Compatible LAMBDA Chain, emphasizing its lube-free design and compatibility with standard RS sprockets. It highlights the chain's environmental benefits and global availability through Tsubakimoto Chain Co.'s network.
Specifications: The RS Double Strand Compatible LAMBDA Chain shares the same transverse pitch as the RS Roller Chain, facilitating easy integration without sprocket replacement. It boasts a higher multi-strand factor of 1.7, offering 20% higher kW ratings compared to conventional double strand LAMBDA Chains.
Features:
  • Dimensionally Compatible: Utilizes standard RS sprockets, reducing costs associated with sprocket replacement.
  • Higher Multi-Strand Factor: Enhances kW ratings, expanding the operating range and available sizes for double strand LAMBDA Chains.
Product Line: Various chain models are listed, including RS40-LMD-1 to RS160-LMD-1, with details on pitch, roller diameter, and tensile strength. LAMBDA Rollers with oil-impregnated bearings are also available for cleaner operations.
Precautions: Users should avoid using the chain in wet or vacuum environments to prevent oil leakage from bushes, which can accelerate wear and reduce chain life. The chain's coating with less rust-prevention oil may lead to premature rusting.
Global Presence: Tsubakimoto Chain Co. operates globally with subsidiaries in the Americas, Europe, the Indian Ocean Rim, East Asia, and China, ensuring widespread availability and support for their products.
Procedures and Recommendations:
  • Ensure no interference with equipment due to the longer pin length of LAMBDA Chains compared to RS Roller Chains.
  • Contact a Tsubaki representative for more information on sprocket compatibility and pin length details.
Additional Information:
  • Operating temperature range is from -10°C to 150°C.
  • For more detailed specifications and ordering information, refer to the Tsubaki Drive Chains & Sprockets catalog.
Standards and Norms: Specifications are subject to change without notice as part of Tsubakimoto Chain Co.'s policy to improve its products. The Tsubaki Eco Link logo indicates products meeting environmental friendliness standards.
