Browning 2722973 Roller Chain Ansi 120 1.5 Inch Pitch

Product Description

The BROWNING 2722973 is a single-strand, standard riveted roller chain built to ANSI B29.1 specifications. It carries a 1.5-inch pitch and is supplied in a 10-foot length, making it a direct-fit choice for heavy-duty power transmission applications. The chain features a 0.875-inch roller diameter and a riveted connection type, providing a permanent, non-master-link construction suited for high-load drive systems. At 37.84 pounds per 10-foot section, this is a substantial industrial chain intended for use in agricultural, manufacturing, and material handling equipment where ANSI 120 trade-size chains are specified.

This chain is appropriate for drive and conveyor applications that require ANSI 120 sizing. It fits sprockets designed for 1.5-inch pitch, single-strand chain. Typical installation scenarios include gearbox-to-shaft drives, conveyor line drives, and elevator drives in both industrial and agricultural settings. Millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and equipment technicians are the primary installers. The 10-foot length allows for field-cutting to the required run length using a standard chain-breaking tool.

Key Features

• ANSI B29.1 standard compliance for direct interchangeability with ANSI 120 sprockets
• 1.5-inch pitch with 0.875-inch roller diameter for precise sprocket engagement
• Riveted construction eliminates master link, providing consistent strength across all links
• Steel construction for durability in high-load, high-cycle power transmission
• Single-strand configuration, 10-foot length ready for field cutting and installation
• Overall width of 2.13 inches with 1.0-inch roller width for standard ANSI 120 clearance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation chain for any drive system specifying ANSI 120 single-strand roller chain with a 1.5-inch pitch per ANSI B29.1.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or millwright with the drive system fully de-energized and locked out per LOTO procedures before handling. Use a proper roller chain breaker tool to cut the chain to the required length and a chain press or connecting link tool to join ends. Inspect drive sprockets for wear before installing new chain, as worn sprockets accelerate chain wear. Consult equipment manufacturer specifications for proper chain tension and lubrication intervals.
