Roller Chain Coupling

Roller
chain couplings are extremely simple but provide a compact and flexible
coupling that is suitable for an extremely wide range of applications.
Because of the design, the torque is distributed throughout the roller
chain and sprocket teeth so there is an even amount of torque
distributed throughout the coupler when in motion. Another good thing
about a roller chain coupling is that the sprockets and chain produce a
slight clearance, which means that absolute shaft alignment is not
requited for the coupling to function, however it is highly recommended
to have the shafts completely aligned, if possible.

Coupling Chain

One
of the components that go into a roller chain coupling is the chain
itself. The roller chains we supply are manufactured using components
that have been heat-treated, shot peened, and hardened for maximum
strength and durability. Typically, a coupling chain is a double-row
roller chain that is ANSI size #40 - #120, then supplied as a certain
pitch length based upon how large of a coupling you need. The chart
below shows the standard stock sizes of coupling chains, but additional
sizes are available upon request.
