The TSUBAKI ANSI roller chain for corrosive environments is a power transmission component designed to withstand exposure to chemicals, moisture and frequent washing. It is used to transmit motion between parallel shafts in a wide variety of industrial machines. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line with the backing of more than 80 years in the Argentine market.

The designation of these chains follows ANSI nomenclature: the number after the letters RS indicates the pitch and the strength of the chain. For example, RS35-AS-1 corresponds to a 3/8 inch pitch, RS40-AS-1 to 1/2 inch, RS50-AS-1 to 5/8 inch, RS60-AS-1 to 3/4 inch and RS80-AS-1 to 1 inch. The AS suffix identifies the version for corrosive environments, and the final -1 indicates that it is single strand. This coding makes it possible to quickly select the right chain according to the pitch required by the system.

These chains are used in industries where corrosion shortens the service life of standard components: water treatment plants, industrial laundries, food and beverage factories, the chemical industry, tanneries and marine applications. In Argentina, they are commonly found in packaging lines, bottle conveyors, cleaning equipment and processes with exposure to steam or cleaning solutions. Their construction resists oxidation and maintains structural integrity in aggressive environments.

To select correctly, take into account the pitch, the number of strands and the required length. Installation requires aligning the sprockets and checking the proper tension to avoid premature wear. Lubrication must be compatible with the corrosive environment; in many cases water-resistant or food-grade lubricants are recommended. Periodically check roller wear and chain elongation to schedule replacement in time.

TSUBAKI ANSI chains for corrosive environments can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same pitch and dimension standard. When requesting a quote, it is essential to provide the full code (for example, RS50-AS-1) and the number of links or the total length. If you cannot find the exact reference, our team can help you identify the equivalent chain for your application.

To receive a quote, send the code of the chain you need via WhatsApp, the number of meters or links and, if possible, a photo of the sprocket or the system. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you so you choose the right option and we reply shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the AS suffix mean in a TSUBAKI chain?
The AS suffix indicates that the chain is manufactured with materials and treatments to withstand corrosive environments, such as exposure to moisture, chemicals or frequent washing. It does not change the pitch or dimensions, only the corrosion resistance.
How do I choose the right pitch for my application?
The pitch must match that of the existing sprockets. If you are going to replace a chain, check the number stamped on the plate or measure the distance between rollers. The codes RS35, RS40, RS50, RS60 and RS80 correspond to standardized pitches.
Can I replace a chain from another brand with a TSUBAKI AS?
Yes, as long as both follow the ANSI standard and have the same pitch and number of strands. The dimensions are interchangeable. We recommend checking sprocket wear and, if necessary, replacing them as well to ensure optimal operation.
