How do I know which chain size, like '04B' or '05B', I need for my equipment?

The model numbers like 04B and 05B refer to the chain's pitch, which is the distance between the roller centres. The best way to get the right size is to find the number stamped on the side plates of your existing chain or check the specifications in your machinery's manual.

Does the chain come with a connecting link, and what length will I receive?

Yes, each length of chain you order includes one connecting link to join the ends. You'll receive a single, continuous piece of chain in the length you select from the options, such as 1, 1.5, or 5 metres.

What's the best way to cut this chain to the exact length I need?

For a clean cut, it's best to use a dedicated roller chain breaker tool, which pushes the pin out. If you don't have one, you can carefully use an angle grinder to grind down the heads of one of the pins on an outer link plate and then punch it through.

This single-row roller chain is a standard industrial drive chain. It transfers power in small machinery and automation projects. It's built to common industrial standards (03C, 04B, 04C, 05B). This lets you match the chain to your sprockets. It comes in several lengths for different jobs. Features and Benefits - Built to ANSI/ISO standards - Each roller chain has a specific pitch (e.g., 04B is 6 mm). This lets you easily choose the right drive chain for your equipment's sprockets. - Carbon steel construction - The links, pins, and rollers are all made of steel. They are heat-treated for hardness. This helps the chain resist stretch and wear from continuous use. - Single row configuration - This compact design works well for transmitting power where space is tight. This makes it a good choice for custom machinery. - Available in multiple lengths - You can get a small industrial drive chain in 1, 1.5, or 5-meter continuous lengths. This suits the size of your project. Applications - Driving light-duty conveyor systems or small automated transfer lines. - Building custom robotics, 3D printers, or other mechanical prototypes. - Replacing a worn transmission chain on small industrial equipment or agricultural machinery.
