The TSUBAKI RS series roller chain is a power transmission component made up of links with attachments, according to the ANSI STANDARD ATTACHMENT CHAIN designation. It is used to drive parallel shafts in equipment where loads must be pulled with precision and wear resistance. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the pitch and attachment type suited to your application.

The RS series designation is read by the number that follows the letters: the higher it is, the larger the chain pitch. For example, RS25 is one of the lightest in the line and RS120 one of the largest. Codes such as RS40, RS50 or RS60 indicate standard intermediate pitches. Attachments are lateral extensions that allow the chain to be fastened to a carriage, a conveyor or a drive mechanism. When requesting a quote, provide the full part number and the number of attachments per link.

This type of chain is used in the food, cement, wood, automotive and materials handling industries. In Argentina it is common to see it in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, packaging machines and part drive systems. It also appears in earthmoving equipment and in production lines where several shafts need to be synchronized. Its construction with attachments makes it suitable for applications where the chain not only transmits motion but also pushes or supports elements.

To select the correct chain, take into account the pitch, the number of strands, the attachment type and the working environment. If there is dust, moisture or high temperatures, it is advisable to evaluate lubrication and special materials. Mounting requires aligning the sprockets and checking tension: a chain that is too tight accelerates wear and one that is too loose can jump. Lubrication must be periodic and with the lubricant suited to the speed and load. If the application involves reversing or impact loads, consult us.

Standard roller chains are manufactured under standards that allow interchangeability between different brands, as long as the pitch, inner width and roller diameter match. In practice, a TSUBAKI RS series chain can replace others of similar designation, but verify the critical dimensions and the attachment type before mixing brands. For replacements, the safest approach is to compare the original part number and the measurements of the worn chain. MR Accesorios Industriales sells TSUBAKI and can guide you on the equivalence.
