The TSUBAKI RF06B-NEP attachment chain is a power transmission component made up of roller links with side attachments, designed to move or transport parts within industrial equipment. Its construction is aimed at corrosive environments, where a standard chain degrades quickly. It is used in process lines, conveyors and mechanisms where material must be dragged, lifted or guided continuously, with a positive mechanical link between the sprocket and the chain.

The designation of this chain is read in parts. The letters RF identify the roller chain line with a pitch according to British standard, and the number that follows —as in RF06B-NEP— defines the pitch size and the strength of the series. The suffix NEP indicates the variant with attachments and treatment for service in corrosive environments. In the example RF06B-NEP the complete combination is shown: RF line, size 06B and NEP finish. For other sizes in the same family, the number changes and the rest of the code remains the same.

In Argentine industry these chains appear in conveyors in food plants, parts washers, cooling tunnels, packaging lines and equipment where there is humidity, steam or cleaning products. They are also found in drag mechanisms in the chemical industry, tanneries and surface treatment. The attachments allow rakes, plates or crossbars that push the material to be fixed, something a common roller chain cannot solve without additional adaptations.

To select the chain, start from the sprocket pitch and the load it will drag, and then define the material and treatment according to the environment. In corrosive service, lubrication should be reviewed: an attachment chain needs the lubricant to reach the pins and bushings, and to be compatible with the process cleaning. Proper sprocket alignment and correct tension prevent uneven wear and skipping. If the equipment works with frequent washing, evaluate the lubrication frequency and the type of sealing of the mounting.

Attachment roller chains are interchangeable between brands when the pitch, roller diameter, inner width and number of strands match. The British standard code helps to compare, but each manufacturer's suffix may change the material or the anti-corrosion treatment. Before replacing one chain with another, it is advisable to verify the pitch and the sprocket it will mesh with. If you have doubts, send the complete part number and the equipment dimensions.
