The TSUBAKI RS-KT series roller chain is a power transmission chain designed to work in low-temperature conditions, where a conventional chain can become brittle or lose flexibility. It is used to link shafts and transmit motion between sprockets in equipment exposed to intense cold, such as freezer chambers, cold tunnels and outdoor installations. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and helps you choose the correct pitch for your application.

The designation of these chains is read by the pitch number that follows the letters RS: thus, the series covers from small pitches, such as RS35-KT and RS40-KT, to larger ones, such as RS120-KT and RS140-KT. The KT suffix identifies the variant of the family, and the number increases along with the strength of the chain. If your equipment works with an intermediate pitch, such as RS50-KT, RS60-KT, RS80-KT or RS100-KT, that same criterion lets you quickly locate the chain you need.

In Argentine industry these chains appear in cold storage rooms, freezing tunnels, low-temperature packaging lines, industrial refrigeration equipment and conveyors operating outdoors in cold areas. They are also found in food plants, meatpacking plants and logistics warehouses where the environment is kept below zero and a chain that does not stiffen or fail due to embrittlement is sought.

To properly select a chain of this type, take into account the pitch and the number of teeth on the sprocket, the load it will transmit, the center distance and the available lubrication. At low temperature, it is advisable to check that the lubricant is suitable for that range, monitor sprocket alignment and verify initial tension. Sealing and cleanliness of the environment also influence the service life of the assembly.

Between brands, roller chains are interchanged by pitch number and number of strands, but each manufacturer may vary the heat treatment, material and factory lubricant. Therefore, before replacing one chain with another equivalent one, it is advisable to compare the pitch, the inner width and the type of roller. If you have doubts, send us the code or the model shown on your equipment.
