Frequently asked questions

Which chain has a pitch of 12.7 mm (1/2"), a roller of 8.51 mm and an inner width of 7.75 mm?

If the measured chain has these dimensions, the matching product in the Ozdowski range is: roller chain 08BHP-1 Hollow Pin, pitch 12.7 mm (1/2"), pin bore 4.6 mm, stainless steel. The pitch is measured as the distance between the axes of adjacent pins.

Which sprockets does the 08BHP-1 chain work with?

With 08BHP sprockets with a pitch of 12.70 mm, designed for single-strand chain according to DIN 8187 / ISO 606.

Which connecting link fits the 08BHP-1 chain?

The 08BHP-1 connecting link (spring clip link) with the same pitch of 12.70 mm. To obtain an odd number of pitches, use the 08BHP-1 offset link (cranked link).

How do I order a chain of the required length?

The chain is sold by the metre - state the number of metres in your order. To close the chain into a loop you need a connecting link (spring clip link) with the same designation.

When should the 08BHP-1 chain be replaced?

When the chain has elongated by approx. 3% of its nominal length (e.g. by 30 mm per metre), it starts to mesh poorly with the sprockets and accelerates their wear. The chain should then be replaced, and if the teeth are badly worn, the sprockets as well.

Do stainless components need lubrication?

Yes. Stainless steel does not rust, but lubrication still reduces friction and wear of the joints. In food applications, use a lubricant approved for food contact.

What does the lead time depend on?

When ordering, please check the current stock level of this chain - the lead time depends on it and is clearly stated according to the quantity available in each warehouse. The stock level is shown above the product price and may vary depending on the warehouse.
