0.5" Pitch roller chain, for use with #40 sprockets. Roller chain can handle more load than belt systems, and is normally used for rotary systems. This number 40 chain is the strongest option we offer for transmitting torque. Chain can be used to create linear motion, but has to be run with a bit of slack in the system. Sold by the meter.
This chain is compatible with any #25 sprocket. You can select sprockets of the same size to carry rotary motion across a distance, or you can select sprockets of differing sizes to increase or reduce the gear ratio of your system. For more details on building rotary systems, have a look at the Rotary Motion Guide.
