Roller Chain General Catalog

Corrosion resistance varies depending on application conditions. The table listed below should not be considered a guarantee of corrosion resistance and performance. Using this chart as a reference is suggested. Please check the corrosion resistance of the chain in advance according to the actual operating conditions determining chain type. CORROSION RESISTANCE GUIDE

For the best defense against corrosion, Tsubaki offers a full line of options for the toughest, harshest and most-corrosive applications. Nickel Plated and Neptune ® along with a full line of Stainless chains that include 304, 316, 600 and Super Stainless ™ . In harsh environments where lubrication is a challenge, Tsubaki Titan ® chain for improved wear life. CORROSION & HEAT RESISTANT CHAINS
