The smallest chain complying to ANSI is 25 of six.35 mm pitch. However, in response for the demands for smaller sized chains lately for high technology machinery such as workplace gear, health care machines and industrial robots, we give 15 of four.7625 mm (3/16 inch) pitch and also 15H1 being a high-power edition of 15. These high precision chains are produced below serious quality control primarily demanded for tiny sizes, taking put on resistance also under consideration.
Choice of chain
Refer on the “Low-speed selection”. Nevertheless, the chain operation velocity can be set significantly high depending on the sort of lubrication as shown within the table under.
Connecting hyperlinks and offset backlinks
R connecting backlinks are utilised for compact pitch chains. Nevertheless, because their power is reduced than that with the base chain, and since the clip is more likely to come off in higher velocity operation, the usage of connecting backlinks is not really recommended. Use a loop chain without the need of attaching connecting hyperlinks.
Offset hyperlinks are available for chains apart from 15 and 15H1, but their use just isn’t recommended for the same explanation as stated for your R Connecting back links.
Operating pace and sort of lubrication
15: A higher precision mini-pitch bushing chain that is definitely smaller than a compact drive chain for standard applications, 25
25: Smallest bushing chain amid ANSI normal chains utilizing curl bushings.
35: A ANSI typical bushing chain appropriate for little precision machines that demand substantial strength.
