Browning 2622785 Connecting Link 40 Chain 1/2 Inch Pitch

Product Description

The BROWNING 2622785 is a connecting link designed for use with single strand roller chain in ANSI Number 40 applications. It features a 1/2 inch pitch and is finished in nickel for corrosion resistance. This link provides a removable, field-serviceable connection point in a roller chain drive, allowing a chain run to be joined or separated without pressing pins. It is installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical contractors working on conveyor systems, drive assemblies, and power transmission equipment in light industrial and commercial environments.

This connecting link is suited for single strand ANSI 40 roller chain drives found in agricultural equipment, conveyor lines, and general power transmission applications. The 0.312 inch roller diameter and 0.312 inch roller width match standard ANSI 40 chain geometry. It is a practical replacement or spare component for any chain assembly requiring a detachable joining link at this pitch size.
