Tsubaki engineering chains consist of several parts.
Tsubaki of Canadaʼs portfolio of chain products includes engineering chains. These are specially constructed and tested by the Tsubaki team to outlast other chains and make applications more cost-efficient. They are perfect for sanitary environments, extreme temperatures, freezers, or exposure to corrosive chemicals, the outdoors, or excessive moisture.
Each of these chains has three fundamental dimensions: pitch, roller diameter, and inside link width. The chain is compatible with the sprockets when these dimensions are equal.

Press fit, the more common type, puts the pins and sidebars together with a tight forced fit, to keep the pins and bushing rotating about fixed points and increase the chainʼs fatigue life. Slip-fit chains have a loose fit between pins and sidebars, which makes assembly easier.
The following elements make up Tsubaki engineering chains:
