RS25 • BF25H
RS25/BF25H U.S. Tsubaki RS25 bushed chain is the smallest ANSI roller chain. It is ideal for power transmission in business machines, electro-optical equipment, and precision and general industrial machines where relatively large space is allowed for miniature drives. U.S. Tsubaki BF25H bushed chain works with standard sprockets. It is a flat side-bar chain, and its inner link plates are thicker than RS25. These chains can accommodate a large allowable load and are widely used for driving motorcycle cam shafts and power transmission machinery in general.
