Chain 081

Product Description

Roller chain 081

Chain 081 (simplex) is a roller chain used in drives of industrial machines and equipment, wherever reliable torque transmission is required. As a European manufacturer, we ensure a precise fit of the pin in the bush, which limits the development of play and extends chain service life. Ozdowski chains withstand loads approx. 20% higher than the standard minimum - this is the result of individual hardening of each component (pin, roller, plate) before the chain is assembled.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the right roller chain for an industrial drive?

It is essential to determine three parameters: the pitch, inner width and roller diameter corresponding to the designation 081. In addition, operating conditions should be taken into account: load, rotational speed and environment (dust, moisture), in order to select the right version.

Why does "dry" running shorten the service life of rollers and pins?

Lubrication reduces metal-to-metal friction in the joints and dissipates heat. Running without lubricant leads to micro-seizures and faster heating of the pins, which accelerates link wear.

Does this chain fit sprockets from other manufacturers?

Yes - provided the sprocket is made to the same standard (DIN 8187 / ISO 606) and has the same pitch, it will work correctly with the chain regardless of the sprocket manufacturer.

What are the benefits of using a professional roller chain breaker?

A dedicated chain breaker allows the pin to be pushed out axially and in a controlled manner, without deforming the side plates of the link - which is particularly important with precisely hardened components.

Where is this product used?

This chain is used in industrial machine transmissions, hoists and lifts, conveyor drives and agricultural machinery - wherever repeatable performance under load matters.
