600 AS SERIES
AS Series chains are an excellent choice for drives requiring both corrosion resistance and high load capacity. Link plates are made of 304 stainless steel and the round parts are made of hardened 600 series stainless steel. Of all the stainless steel chains offered by U.S. Tsubaki, AS Series has the highest load capacity. Use where stainless steel is required by FDA regulations.

304 SS SERIES
SS Series chains are made completely of 304 stainless steel. SS Series has an excellent resistance to corrosion & temperature extremes. It is generally considered non-magnetic, although some permeability can be found in these chains. This is caused by the cold working of the components during the manufacturing process. If more complete non-magnetic permeability is required, we suggest our NS Series.

316 NS SERIES
NS Series chains are made completely of 316 stainless steel. It is the most corrosion resistant standard stainless steel chain offered by U.S. Tsubaki. It also has the highest resistance to temperature extremes, and is sometimes referred to as our non-magnetic series because of its extremely low magnetic permeability. The load capacity of 316 NS Series is equal to that of our 304 SS Series.

TITANIUM TI SERIES
TI Series chains are made completely of Titanium. Available in sizes RS35TI - RS60TI, Tl Series brings the unique properties of Titanium to roller chain applications, specifically extreme corrosion resistance in a lightweight chain. Available on a made-to-order basis in the same dimensions as the 304 SS Series. Call U.S. Tsubaki for further details.

All dimensions are nominal values and for reference only

Double strand chains are available.

  • 1 Width between roller link plates (W) is slightly narrower than ANSI standard, however this chain runs on standard sprockets.
