Roller Chains & Sprockets

Roller chains and sprockets are widely used in the power transmission industry. Roller chains are made up of small roller links, bushings, and pins which are connected together to form a chain. Sprockets are gears with teeth that mesh with the rollers in the chain. The sprockets and the chain work together to transmit power from one shaft to another. Roller chains and sprockets are commonly used in industrial machinery, motorcycles, bicycles, and agricultural equipment.

What is Industrial Roller Chain used for?

Industrial roller chains are used for a wide range of applications, including power transmission, conveyors, material handling equipment, and packaging machinery. They are also commonly used in agricultural equipment, such as tractors and combines. Industrial roller chains are designed to withstand heavy loads, high speeds, and harsh environments.
