How to use this chart:

  1. Measure the pitch (P), roller width (W), roller diameter (D), overall width (A), plate height (H), plate thickness (T), and pin diameter (E) of your chain.
  2. Match your measurements to the dimensions in the chart to determine the standard size chain you need.
  3. Consider the ultimate tensile strength and weight per foot specifications to ensure that the chain you select has the required load-carrying capacity and optimal performance for your application.
