Description

TSUBAKI K-1 is a roller chain reference, within Power transmission. Request a quote for K-1 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The TSUBAKI roller chain with attachments is a power transmission component that incorporates extended plates, or attachments, to secure dragging, conveying or elevating accessories. It is used in applications where the chain not only transmits motion but must also push, pull or hold parts. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line for plants and workshops in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the right variant for your equipment.

The designation K-# identifies TSUBAKI standard attachment chains. The number following the K indicates the pitch and size of the base chain: for example, K-1 corresponds to an attachment chain of series 1. This nomenclature makes it possible to quickly recognize the roller chain it derives from and order the replacement with the correct code. If your equipment uses an attachment chain, the most practical approach is to provide the complete code shown on the plate or in the manual.

These chains are used in drag conveyors, bucket elevators, accumulation systems, packaging machines and material handling equipment. In Argentine industry they appear in food, cement, ceramic, meatpacking and assembly line plants. They are also found in old or imported equipment where the original chain is no longer available and must be replaced with an equivalent one with the same pitch and attachment characteristics.

To properly select an attachment chain, take into account the pitch, number of strands, attachment type (single or double, with or without holes) and roller material. Assembly requires perfectly aligning the sprockets and checking tension: a misaligned attachment chain wears out the bushings and plates. Proper lubrication and periodic cleaning extend service life, especially in dusty or humid environments. If the application requires it, it can be supplied with surface treatments or stainless steel.

Regarding equivalences, attachment chains are manufactured under ANSI standards and are available from different brands. Interchangeability depends on matching pitch, inner width, roller diameter and attachment position. It is not enough for the chain to have the same pitch: the critical dimensions must be compared. If you provide the original code or the measurements of the old chain, at MR Accesorios Industriales we help you find the compatible option.

If you need a roller chain with attachments for your equipment, send us the code K-1 or the model shown on your machine via WhatsApp. We will quote you shortly and guide you so the chain works without problems from the first assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the code K-1 mean in a TSUBAKI chain?
The K indicates that it is a standard attachment chain and the number that follows refers to the size or pitch of the base chain. In the case of K-1, it corresponds to an attachment chain of series 1. It is always advisable to verify the complete code on the equipment before requesting a quote.
How do I know if an attachment chain is compatible with my machine?
You have to compare the pitch, inner width, roller diameter and attachment arrangement. It is not enough for the pitch to match. If you send us the measurements of the original chain or a photo, we help you identify the equivalent.
What lubrication does a roller chain with attachments need?
It depends on the speed and the environment. In general, oil or grease for chains is used, applied to the pins and bushings. In dusty or humid environments, more frequent lubrication is advisable and the sealing should be checked. Always follow the equipment manufacturer's recommendations.
