Browning 1297571 Connecting Link 41 Chain 1/2 Inch Pitch

Product Description

The BROWNING 1297571 is a steel connecting link designed for use with single strand roller chain in ANSI No. 41 applications. It provides a removable, field-serviceable joint for joining chain ends without special tooling. The link uses a pin-and-clip attachment type, with a pin diameter of 0.141 inches, a roller diameter of 0.306 inches, and a roller width of 0.25 inches. This type of hardware is commonly installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical contractors working on light-duty conveyor, drive, and power transmission systems.

This connecting link is suited for light-duty power transmission applications where ANSI 41 single strand roller chain is specified. Typical installations include small conveyor drives, agricultural equipment, material handling systems, and general industrial machinery. The 0.5 inch pitch matches the standard ANSI 41 chain specification, making it a direct field replacement or assembly component wherever that chain size is in service.

Key Features

• ANSI 41 compliant connecting link for single strand roller chain
• 0.5 inch pitch matches standard 41 chain dimensions
• Steel construction for durability in light-duty drive applications
• Pin attachment type allows for tool-free or minimal-tool installation and removal
• Roller diameter of 0.306 inches and roller width of 0.25 inches per ANSI specification

Compatibility

Designed for use with ANSI No. 41 single strand roller chain with a 0.5 inch pitch. Meets ANSI standards for 41 chain connecting links.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or mechanical contractors during chain assembly or replacement. Disconnect and lock out all power to the drive system before servicing any chain or sprocket components. Ensure the connecting link pin and clip are fully seated before returning the drive to service. Refer to applicable ANSI and equipment manufacturer guidelines for chain tensioning and alignment requirements.
