The TSUBAKI LMD-H series roller chain is a power transmission chain from the Lambda Lube Free line, designed to work without additional lubrication at the articulation points. It is used to drive shafts, reduce or multiply speeds and synchronize mechanisms in industrial equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and helps you choose the right pitch and configuration for your application.

The series designation reads in blocks: the letters RS identify the ANSI-pitch roller chain, the number that follows indicates the pitch size (for example RS40, RS50, RS60, RS80 or RS100), and the suffixes LMD-H correspond to the heavy-duty Lambda Lube Free variant. The last number, as in RS40-LMD-H-2, indicates the number of strands: 1 for single, 2 for double. Thus, RS60-LMD-H-2 is a pitch 60 chain with two strands from the LMD-H line.

In Argentine industry these chains appear in conveyors, elevators, packaging machines, bakery equipment, bottling lines, mills and water treatment plants. They are also found in the food industry, where conventional lubrication can be a problem, and in drive equipment for pumps, fans and compressors. Because they do not require external lubrication, they simplify maintenance in hard-to-reach areas or areas at risk of contamination.

To properly select an LMD-H chain, you must define the pitch, the number of strands, the number of links and the type of joint. Check the alignment of the sprockets, the condition of the teeth and the correct tension: a chain that is too tight accelerates wear on bushings and rollers. The Lambda Lube Free line comes lubricated from the factory and does not need additional oil in normal service, which reduces maintenance and prevents drips.

ANSI roller chains are interchangeable between manufacturers when the pitch, number of strands and roller type match, although each brand may have its own tolerances and treatments. Therefore, it is advisable to compare the complete designation and not just the pitch number. If you have doubts, send the code of the original chain and from MR Accesorios Industriales we will guide you on the available equivalent.

To request a quote, send the complete code on WhatsApp, for example RS50-LMD-H-2, or the pitch and number of strands you need. You can also attach a photo of the chain and the sprocket. With that data we reply shortly with the alternative that best suits your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does LMD-H mean in a TSUBAKI chain?
LMD-H identifies the heavy-duty Lambda Lube Free line. It is a roller chain that comes lubricated from the factory and does not require additional oil at the articulation points during normal service, which simplifies maintenance.
How do I know which chain pitch I need?
The pitch comes from the number that follows RS: RS40, RS50, RS60, RS80 and RS100 are different sizes. To choose correctly, you must measure the pitch of the current chain or count the teeth on the sprocket and consult us on WhatsApp.
Can I replace a chain from another brand with a TSUBAKI one?
In general yes, if the pitch, the number of strands and the roller type match. ANSI chains are interchangeable between manufacturers, although tolerances and treatments may vary. Send the original code and we will advise you on the equivalent.
