ANSI (Lambda) NP

ANSI NP Chain is a Tsubaki ANSI G8 chain that has been plated with Nickel. NP chain has a light corrosion resistance and an attractive appearance. NP chain is suitable for outdoor conditions exposed to water. There is a 15% reduction in Maximum Allowable Load compared to the corresponding ANSI G8 chain, so please take this into account when making your chain selection. The working temperature range is:
-10°C to +60°C. Of course, ANSI Lambda NP chain is also available.

  • RS25-NP to RS35-NP are rollerless chains (only bush). The figure shown is the bush diameter.
  • Connecting links are clip type for sizes RS25-NP to RS60-NP, and cotter type for size RS80-NP to RS100-NP.
  • When a single pitch offset link is used, please calculate a 35% reduction of the fatigue strength.
  • For details on corrosion resistance selection, please consult our Corrosion Resistance Guide.
  • The listed sizes are stock items, other chain sizes are available on request.
