Browning 1298017 Offset Link 80 Chain 1 Inch Pitch

Product Description

The BROWNING 1298017 is a single-strand offset link designed for ANSI 80 roller chain with a 1-inch pitch. Offset links, also called half links, allow technicians to connect or adjust chain length without adding a full link, making them essential for drive maintenance and chain replacement. This link is constructed from steel and uses a pin attachment type. It is sized to match the geometry of standard ANSI 80 chain, with a roller diameter of 0.625 inches and a roller width of 0.625 inches. Machinists, industrial maintenance technicians, and power transmission specialists typically stock and install these links during drive system repairs.

This offset link is suited for single-strand ANSI 80 roller chain applications found in industrial machinery, conveyor drives, agricultural equipment, and general power transmission systems. The 1-inch pitch and pin attachment conform to ANSI standards, making this a direct-fit replacement for worn or damaged offset links in existing ANSI 80 chain drives. It is sold individually, so technicians can order exactly what the job requires.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by industrial maintenance technicians or power transmission specialists. Before servicing a chain drive, de-energize and lock out the drive system per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use appropriate chain breaker and link installation tools to seat the pin and secure the clip or cotter pin fastener. Inspect adjacent chain links and sprocket teeth for wear before returning the drive to service.
