Description
ANSI #40 Standard Roller Chain – Reliable Power Transmission for Industrial Use
The ANSI #40 Standard Roller Chain is designed for American-standard power transmission systems where reliability, dimensional accuracy, and long service life are critical. Fully manufactured in compliance with ANSI B29.1, this roller chain ensures seamless compatibility with U.S.-standard sprockets and equipment, eliminating the risk of mismatch and secondary modification during installation.Engineered for industrial transmission applications, this #40 roller chain is suitable for continuous operation under medium to heavy loads. It effectively addresses common procurement pain points such as premature wear, frequent chain replacement, and unstable performance in demanding working environments.
Technical Overview & Key Specifications
This ANSI #40 roller chain features a pitch of [12.7] inches and an inner link width of [7.85] mm, allowing smooth and stable engagement with standard #40 sprockets. With a tensile strength of [1950] kN, it provides dependable load-carrying capacity for industrial machinery while maintaining dimensional stability over long operating cycles.Manufactured under an ISO 9001 certified quality management system, the chain meets international quality and consistency requirements. Full ANSI B29.1 compliance documentation is available to support North American market entry and OEM integration.
Core Advantages for B2B Buyers
100% ANSI Compliance
All dimensions and tolerances are strictly controlled according to ANSI B29.1 standards, ensuring direct compatibility with American-made equipment. This reduces installation risk and shortens procurement and commissioning timelines.
Enhanced Wear Resistance
Pins, bushings, and rollers undergo optimized heat treatment to improve surface hardness and wear resistance. Compared with ordinary roller chains, this design delivers a significantly longer service life, helping reduce maintenance frequency and downtime costs.
Stable Performance Under Repeated Load
The chain is engineered to withstand frequent start-stop cycles and fluctuating loads commonly found in industrial transmission systems. Its balanced material structure helps prevent elongation and fatigue failure during long-term operation.
Flexible Customization Support
Custom chain lengths from 10 ft to 500 ft are supported, along with optional material upgrades and corrosion-resistant surface treatments for humid or abrasive environments. This flexibility allows buyers to match specific project requirements without overstocking.Typical Application Scenarios
The ANSI #40 Standard Roller Chain is widely used in conveyor systems, agricultural machinery, packaging equipment, pumps, and logistics transmission lines. In agricultural applications, it performs reliably under dust, vibration, and temperature variation. In industrial production lines, its accurate pitch and smooth engagement help maintain stable output and reduce energy loss.
Quality Assurance & Supply Reliability
Each production batch undergoes dimensional inspection, tensile testing, and visual quality checks before shipment. As of [year placeholder], this roller chain has supported [data placeholder] industrial customers in North America and other ANSI-standard markets, helping them reduce total ownership costs through stable and compliant supply.
Customization & Ordering Guide
Customization options include chain length, material selection, surface coating, and accessories such as connecting links. The standard ordering process includes technical confirmation, sampling if required, mass production, and delivery. Standard orders are typically completed within 7 days, while customized orders require 15–20 days, with a minimum order quantity of 10 ft.
Summary
The ANSI #40 Standard Roller Chain is a dependable choice for industrial buyers seeking ANSI compliance, durability, and long-term cost efficiency. Its stable performance, flexible customization options, and proven compatibility make it well-suited for demanding power transmission applications in the North American and global ANSI markets.
