The TSUBAKI roller chain of the RS..B-SS line is a stainless steel transmission chain, designed to work in corrosive environments where a carbon steel chain would degrade quickly. It is used to transmit motion between parallel shafts in equipment exposed to moisture, washdowns, vapors or chemicals. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line, with technical advice to choose the correct pitch and number of strands.

The designation of this line reads as follows: RS identifies the roller chain with pitch according to BS standard; the number that follows defines the pitch and strength; SS indicates stainless steel; and the last digit indicates whether it is single, double or triple strand. So, for example, RS08B-SS-1 is a chain with 08B pitch, stainless steel, single strand, while RS10B-SS-2 is the same type but double strand. The numeric suffix does not change the pitch: it changes the transmission capacity.

These chains are chosen in food and beverage plants, industrial washdown areas, water treatment plants, chemical industry, tanneries and any process with frequent washing or outdoor exposure. In Argentina you will find them in conveyors, mixers, packaging machines and equipment that is washed daily. Stainless steel prevents the surface rust that contaminates the product or seizes the rollers, and keeps the chain articulated without constant lubrication.

To select correctly, take into account the pitch, the number of strands and the required length. Check that the sprockets are compatible with the BS pitch and that they are in good condition: a worn sprocket accelerates the wear of the new chain. During assembly, align the shafts and check the tension; a chain that is too tight loads the bearings and one that is too loose jumps. On stainless steel, use a compatible lubricant and check the pin play before each start-up.

Roller chains are identified by standard and pitch, so a stainless steel BS chain from another brand with the same pitch and number of strands is interchangeable. What changes between manufacturers is the stainless steel treatment, the roller tolerance and the service life. Do not mix brands in the same run: if you replace, do it over the entire length. If the equipment came with a carbon steel chain, confirm that the sprockets accept the pitch and width of the stainless steel chain.

If you need a chain for equipment that works wet or with cleaning products, send the complete code by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With the code RS08B-SS-1 or the one shown on your machine, we'll quote you shortly. You can also ask about other variants of the RS..B-SS line.
