The ASA 160/3 chain is a roller chain with a 50.8 mm (2 inch) pitch, 28.58 mm diameter roller and 31.75 mm inner width. It is used in heavy power transmission, where high loads need to be driven at moderate speeds. DONGHUA manufactures it under the ASA/ANSI standard, and MR Accesorios Industriales markets it as part of its transmission line.

This item is an ASA series roller chain, designation ASA 160/3. The number 160 indicates the pitch: 50.8 mm. The roller diameter is 28.58 mm and the inner width between plates is 31.75 mm. These are the three dimensions that define the seat on the sprocket and the lateral play. The chain comes assembled with pins and bushings, ready to mount on chain drives with a 2 inch pitch.

It is used in equipment where significant loads are moved: drag conveyors, bucket elevators, mill drives, mixers, machines in the cement, mining and food industries. Also in agricultural machinery drives and material handling equipment that work with dust or outdoors. It is a large-pitch chain, designed for low or medium speeds and high torques.

To install it, verify that the sprocket is of the correct pitch (50.8 mm) and that the groove width accepts the 28.58 mm roller. Check the alignment of the sprockets and the tension: a chain of this size works better with a slight sag in the slack strand. Lubricate with oil or grease depending on the environment. If the equipment has load variations, review the service factor before choosing the pitch.

If you need a nearby size, a different pitch or a chain with the same performance but from another brand, send us the code ASA 160/3 or the designation on the equipment nameplate. With the pitch, roller diameter and inner width we can look for the equivalent. We can also verify whether a single, double or triple-strand chain is more suitable depending on the available space.
