Browning 1297712 Double Strand Connecting Link 60 Chain

Product Description

The BROWNING 1297712 is a double strand connecting link designed for ANSI 60-2 roller chain with a 3/4 inch pitch. It provides a removable, field-serviceable connection point in double strand chain drive systems, allowing technicians to join or separate chain runs without cutting. Constructed from steel, it uses a pin-style attachment with a pin diameter of 0.234 inches. It is suited for industrial and mechanical power transmission applications where chain must be assembled or replaced in the field.

This connecting link is intended for use with double strand roller chain conforming to ANSI standard 60-2. Typical applications include conveyor systems, drive systems in HVAC equipment, agricultural machinery, and general industrial equipment that rely on 60-series double strand chain. The 3/4 inch pitch and steel construction make it appropriate for moderate-duty power transmission installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a mechanical technician or millwright. Power down and de-energize all drive equipment before accessing the chain. Ensure the master link clip or retaining pin is fully seated and oriented with the closed end facing the direction of chain travel. Do not reuse a connecting link that shows visible wear, deformation, or a damaged clip.
