Offset links are supplied with “flatted” connecting pins and a split cotter for ease of assembly in the field.. They are also used to reduce the length of a strand by one pitch when normal chain elongation has created excess catenary sag on a roller chain drive. They offer premium performance and long life in a wide variety of applications.
Care however should be taken as the offset link has significantly less load carrying capacity than the base chain itself. SENQCIA Inspire Series Nicjkel Plate Double Pitch offset Links are manufactured in accordance with the ASME/ANSI B29.
