TSUBAKI RF NP series roller chain is a metric pitch transmission chain designed to work in corrosive environments. It is used to transmit motion between parallel shafts in equipment where humidity, frequent washdowns or chemical agents affect conventional chains. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the pitch and number of strands for your application.

The series designation is read in parts. RF indicates a metric pitch roller chain according to BS standard; the number that follows defines the pitch (for example, 06B corresponds to a 3/8" pitch). The last digit indicates the number of strands: depending on the code, it can be single, double or triple. Thus, the code tells you at a glance the size and configuration.

These chains are used in industries where there is exposure to corrosion: food and beverage plants with frequent washdowns, industrial laundries, water treatment, chemical industry, tanneries and outdoor equipment. In Argentina you will find them in conveyors, mixers, pump and fan drives, and in packaging lines where the chain is exposed to water or cleaning products daily.

To select correctly, take into account the pitch, the number of strands and the required length in number of pitches. The NP version is designed to resist corrosion, but it does not replace a stainless steel chain in very aggressive environments. Check sprocket alignment, correct tension and proper lubrication for that environment; compatible lubrication helps extend service life even when there is humidity.

Metric pitch BS roller chains are interchangeable between manufacturers that comply with the same standard, provided the pitch, inner width and number of strands match. When requesting a quote, it is best to provide the full code or the pitch and width measurements to avoid confusion. If your equipment has an equivalent chain from another brand, we can help you find the match.

If you need a TSUBAKI RF NP series chain, send us the code or model on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With that data we will send you the quote shortly and confirm the variant that best suits your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the NP suffix mean in the TSUBAKI chain?
NP identifies the anti-corrosion version of the RF series. It is designed for environments with humidity or agents that attack carbon steel. It is not the same as a stainless steel chain, but it offers greater corrosion resistance than a standard chain.
How do I choose between a single, double or triple chain?
The number of strands depends on the load the drive must transmit. The more strands, the greater the transmission capacity for the same pitch. If you are not sure, send us your equipment data and we will guide you in choosing the right configuration.
What data do I need to quote an RF NP chain?
Ideally you should send us the full code (for example, RF06B-NP-1), the number of pitches or the total length, and whether it is for replacement or for new equipment. With that we will quote you shortly on WhatsApp.
