The 16-C1 chain is a European standard (BS) roller chain with 1 inch pitch, single strand. It is used to transmit power between parallel shafts in equipment where the pitch and roller strength are standardized according to that standard. At MR Accesorios Industriales you can request a quote on WhatsApp with code 16-C1 and we will send you the alternatives in the BS series.
This item is a single-strand roller chain of the BS series, identified as 16-C1. Its designation 16 corresponds to the 1 inch pitch and the suffix C1 indicates one strand. The data sheet values are the roller diameter of 15.88 mm and the inner width of 17.02 mm. With these values the compatible sprocket is selected and it is verified that the chain fits the available width of the sprocket.
16-C1 chains are found in agricultural machinery drives, conveyors, mixers, elevators and process equipment where 1 inch pitch is used. They also appear in low and medium speed drives with single transmission ratios, where roller robustness and ease of replacement are prioritized. If the original equipment uses the BS standard, this chain is the usual reference for replacement.
To install it, verify that the sprockets are 1 inch pitch and that the 17.02 mm inner width matches the groove of the sprocket. Check shaft alignment, tension and the condition of the teeth before installing the new chain. If the drive works with pulsating load or heavy dirt, it is advisable to evaluate lubrication and inspection frequency. Do not mix links of different standards or different degrees of fatigue.
To quote an equivalent, send us code 16-C1 along with a photo of the old chain and the number of links. It also helps if you send us the pitch, roller diameter and inner width measured with a caliper. With this data we search within the BS series for the option that best fits your equipment.
