The ASA 50 chain is a roller chain with a 15.87 mm pitch, a 10.16 mm roller diameter and a 9.53 mm inner width. It is used to transmit power between parallel shafts in a wide variety of industrial machines. DONGHUA is a brand that MR carries, and this chain is part of the ASA series, a standard widely used in the market. If you need to replace a chain or build a new drive, this reference may be the right one.
This DONGHUA ASA 50 chain has a 15.87 mm pitch, a 10.16 mm roller diameter and a 9.53 mm inner width. These values correspond to the ASA 50 designation within the ASA series, which is characterized by its standardized dimensions for pitch and rollers. The chain is manufactured with steel and treatments that give it wear resistance. It is a single-strand roller chain, suitable for gear power transmission with sprockets of compatible pitch.
Typical applications of an ASA 50 chain include drives in machine tools, conveyors, packaging equipment, mixers, pumps and compressors, among others. It is used when a positive drive is required, without slipping, and with a constant transmission ratio. It is also common in lifting systems and in low- and medium-speed drive mechanisms. Its roller construction allows it to absorb small misalignments and moderate shock loads, provided the installation is correct.
To correctly select an ASA 50 chain, take into account the power to be transmitted, the rotation speed, the number of teeth on the sprockets and the center distance. It is important to verify that the chain pitch matches the sprocket pitch and that lubrication is suitable for the application. Installation must be done with the correct tension: a chain that is too tight accelerates wear on the rollers and sprockets, while a loose chain can jump or strike. Also check shaft alignment to avoid side loads.
If you need an equivalent chain, you can ask us. Sometimes an ASA 50 chain can be replaced by another from the same series with a different number of links or by a higher-strength chain, but that depends on the application. To request a quote, send us the ASA 50 code or the full designation by WhatsApp. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you so you can find the chain that best suits your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does ASA 50 mean?

- Can this chain replace a worn chain?
- Yes, as long as the pitch and dimensions match the original chain. We recommend verifying the number of links and the condition of the sprockets. If the sprockets are worn, they should be replaced together with the chain to avoid premature failure.
