How to choose a bicycle chain
The choice of bicycle chain should be selected from the size of the chain, the speed change performance and the length of the chain. Appearance inspection of the chain: 1. Whether the inner/outer chain pieces are deformed, cracked, or corroded; 2. Whether the pin is deformed or rotated, or embroi...Read more -
The invention of the roller chain
According to research, the application of chains in our country has a history of more than 3,000 years. In ancient times, the rollover trucks and waterwheels used in rural areas of my country to lift water from low places to high places were similar to modern conveyor chains. In the “Xinyix...Read more -
How to measure chain pitch
Under the tension state of 1% of the minimum breaking load of the chain, after eliminating the gap between the roller and the sleeve, the measured distance between the generatrices on the same side of two adjacent rollers is expressed in P (mm). The pitch is the basic parameter of the chain and a...Read more -
How is a link of a chain defined?
The section where the two rollers are connected with the chain plate is a section. The inner link plate and the sleeve, the outer link plate and the pin are connected with interference fits respectively, which are called inner and outer link. The section connecting the two rollers and the chain p...Read more -
What is the thickness of 16b sprocket?
The thickness of the 16b sprocket is 17.02mm. According to GB/T1243, the minimum inner section width b1 of the 16A and 16B chains is: 15.75mm and 17.02mm respectively. Since the pitch p of these two chains is both 25.4mm, according to the requirements of the national standard, for the sprocket wi...Read more -
What is the diameter of the 16B chain roller?
Pitch: 25.4mm, roller diameter: 15.88mm, customary name: inner width of link within 1 inch: 17.02. There is no 26mm pitch in conventional chains, the closest one is 25.4mm (80 or 16B chain, maybe 2040 double pitch chain). However, the outer diameter of the rollers of these two chains is not 5mm, ...Read more -
Causes of broken chains and how to deal with them
reason: 1. Poor quality, defective raw materials. 2. After long-term operation, there will be uneven wear and thinning between the links, and the fatigue resistance will be poor. 3. The chain is rusted and corroded to cause breakage 4. Too much oil, resulting in severe tooth jumping when riding v...Read more -
How are chains generally damaged?
The main failure modes of the chain are as follows: 1. Chain fatigue damage: The chain elements are subjected to variable stress. After a certain number of cycles, the chain plate is fatigued and fractured, and the rollers and sleeves are impacted by fatigue damage. For a properly lubricated clos...Read more -
How can I tell if my chain needs replacing?
It can be judged from the following points: 1. The speed change performance decreases during riding. 2. There is too much dust or sludge on the chain. 3. Noise is generated when the transmission system is running. 4. Cackling sound when pedaling due to dry chain. 5. Place it for a long time after...Read more -
How to check the roller chain
Visual inspection of the chain 1. Whether the inner/outer chain is deformed, cracked, embroidered 2. Whether the pin is deformed or rotated, embroidered 3. Whether the roller is cracked, damaged or excessively worn 4. Is the joint loose and deformed? 5. Whether there is any abnormal sound or abno...Read more -
What is the difference between long and short roller chain pitch
The long and short pitch of the roller chain means that the distance between the rollers on the chain is different. The difference in their use mainly depends on the carrying capacity and speed. Long-pitch roller chains are often used in high-load and low-speed transmission systems because of the...Read more -
What is the material of the chain roller?
Chain rollers are generally made of steel, and the performance of the chain requires high tensile strength and certain toughness. Chains include four series, transmission chains, conveyor chains, drag chains, special professional chains, a series of usually metal links or rings, chains used to ob...Read more
