ANSI Roller Chain
Roller chains are a type of transmission chain that use rollers to reduce friction between the chain and the sprocket. In this article, we will discuss the different types of roller chains, their uses, and how to choose the appropriate chain for your needs.
Roller Chains & Sprockets
Roller chains and sprockets are commonly used in power transmission applications. A sprocket is a toothed wheel that meshes with the rollers of a chain. Together, the chain and sprocket convert rotary motion into linear motion. The rollers reduce friction, which means that roller chains are more efficient than sliding-contact chains.
There are several different types of roller chains:
- Single-strand roller chains
- Double-pitch roller chains
- Hollow-pin roller chains
- Double-strand roller chains
- Leaf chains
