Frequently asked questions

Which chain does the offset link 16B-3 fit?

The 16B-3 roller chain according to DIN 8187 / ISO 606, which has a pitch of 25.4 mm (1"), a roller of 15.88 mm and an inner width of 17.02 mm. If your chain has these dimensions, the matching product in the Ozdowski range is: cranked link (offset link) 16B-3, pitch 25.4 mm (1"), stainless steel.

When is an offset link used?

When the chain has an odd number of pitches after shortening or lengthening. An offset link is weaker than a standard link, so under heavy loads it is better to choose a chain length that only requires a connecting link.

Does the 16B-3 chain fit ASA 80 sprockets?

No. The 16B chain (European standard) and the ASA 80 chain (American standard) have the same pitch but a different roller diameter and inner width. These systems should not be mixed.

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.
