T S U B A K I D R I V E C H A I NBefore Use For Safe UseStandard Roller Chains Lube-Free Roller Chains Heavy Duty Roller Chains Corrosion Resistant Roller Chains Specialty Roller Chains Accessories Selection HandlingTitanium Roller ChainsTitanium chains are non-magnetic and offer high corrosion resistance. For details on corrosion resistance selection, see pg. 157. Thesechains can be used in temperatures of —20 to 400ßC.Poly Steel ChainsPC (Standard Specification)The pins and outer plates of these chains are made of 304 stainless steel (301 stainless steel clips),while the inner plates are of engineered plastic (white). They are lube-free, low noise (5 dB less thanRS Roller Chains) and lightweight (50% of RS Roller Chains). They can be used in temperatures of—10 to 80ßC. For details on corrosion resistance selection, see pg. 157.PC-SY (Super Chemical Resistance Specification)The pins and outer plates of these chains are made of titanium, while the inner plates are of aspecial engineered plastic (matte white); therefore they are suited for applications in which PCChains have insufficient corrosion resistance. They can be used in temperatures of —10 to 80ßC. Fordetails on corrosion resistance selection, see pg. 157. Bear in mind when making your selection thatmaximum allowable load is about 60% that of PC Chains.BS-PC (BS Standard Specifications)Poly Steel Chain that conforms to BS standards.Curved Stainless Steel Roller ChainsThese roller chains have a wide sideflex due to its original pin / bush construction and the largeclearance between its plates. Curved transmission is easy using RS-type standard sprockets.Low Noise Roller ChainsThese chains emit 6 to 8 dB less noise than pre-lubed RS Roller Chains (in-house comparisontesting). They can be used in temperatures of —10 to 60ßC.Cold Resistant Roller ChainsSN Low NoiseThese chains can be used in lower temperatures than RS Roller Chains yet deliver the same allowable load (when using an F-typeconnecting link). Expect a 20% reduction in strength when using an M-type connecting link. They can be used in temperatures of —40 to 60ßC. Pre-Delivery LubricationPCCurved Stainless Pre-delivery lubrication is not carried out on SS Specification or NS Specification Stainless Steel Roller Chain, Titanium RollerChains, or Curved Stainless Steel Roller Chains. If these chains are to be used in environments where they are not submergedin or come in contact with water, pre-use lubrication of the chain must take place. If chains are used in these conditions without lubrication, poor articulation of the chain may occur at a much earlier stage than expected.The maximum allowable load is calculated when chain is lubricated (including water lubricant).*RS11-SS-1 chain is lubricated.99
