The smallest chain complying to ANSI is 25 of six.35 mm pitch. Having said that, in response to your demands for smaller chains lately for higher technology machinery such as workplace equipment, medical machines and industrial robots, we deliver 15 of 4.7625 mm (3/16 inch) pitch as well as 15H1 as a high-power model of 15. These substantial precision chains are manufactured under serious excellent management specially demanded for smaller sizes, taking dress in resistance also into account.
Selection of chain
Refer to your “Low-speed selection”. Having said that, the chain operation speed can be set significantly high according to the kind of lubrication as proven from the table under.
Connecting links and offset hyperlinks
R connecting backlinks are applied for compact pitch chains. On the other hand, given that their power is lower than that in the base chain, and because the clip is more likely to come off in higher speed operation, the use of connecting hyperlinks isn’t suggested. Use a loop chain without attaching connecting back links.
Offset links can be found for chains besides 15 and 15H1, but their use is not really suggested for the exact same reason as stated to the R Connecting back links.
Working pace and type of lubrication
15: A high precision mini-pitch bushing chain that is certainly smaller than a compact drive chain for general applications, 25
25: Smallest bushing chain amongst ANSI common chains using curl bushings.
35: A ANSI regular bushing chain suitable for smaller precision machines that need substantial power.
