The TSUBAKI roller chain from the RS B-LM-NEP line is designed for power transmission in corrosive environments. Its construction combines plates and pins with anti-corrosion treatment, making it suitable for frequent washdowns, humidity and vapors. It is used in equipment where a standard chain would rust quickly. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the pitch and number of strands for your application.

The designation RS B-LM-NEP is read in parts: RS identifies the roller chain with pitch according to BS standard; the number that follows —08, 10, 12, 16— defines the pitch size. LM indicates plates with anti-corrosion treatment, NEP the treatment of pins and bushings for corrosion resistance, and the final suffix 1 or 2 the number of strands: single or double. Thus, RS08B-LM-NEP-1 is single and RS08B-LM-NEP-2 is double. Send the complete code to quote the exact variant.

These chains are chosen in food and beverage plants, industrial washdown areas, surface treatment, packaging plants and wash tunnels, where there is water, steam or cleaning products. Also in outdoor equipment or in coastal areas. In Argentina they are seen in conveyors, pump drives, fans and process machinery. Corrosion resistance extends service life compared to a conventional chain, which in those environments rusts and elongates prematurely.

To select correctly, take into account the pitch, the number of strands, the working load and the speed. During assembly, check the alignment of the sprockets and the correct tension: a chain that is too tight accelerates wear and one that is too loose jumps. Proper lubrication reduces wear; in corrosive environments, use the lubricant recommended by the manufacturer for those conditions. Also check the wear of the sprocket teeth: a worn sprocket shortens the life of the new chain.

Regarding equivalences, BS pitch chains are interchangeable between manufacturers that comply with the same standard, but anti-corrosion treatments and materials may vary. Do not replace an LM-NEP chain with a standard one if the environment is corrosive: the difference is in the surface protection. If in doubt, consult us with the original code and the working environment. MR Accesorios Industriales sells TSUBAKI as an official brand and can guide you on the right option.

To request a quote, send us the complete code via WhatsApp —for example RS10B-LM-NEP-2— and the number of meters or links you need. If you don't have the code, send us the pitch, the number of strands and a photo of the old chain. We will reply shortly with the alternative that best suits your equipment.
