Browning 2722999 Roller Chain 40-2 Double Strand 10 Ft

Product Description

The BROWNING 2722999 is a double strand roller chain designed for power transmission applications requiring reliable, high-load performance. Built to ANSI B29.1 standards, this chain features a 0.5-inch pitch and a 0.312-inch roller diameter, conforming to the 40-2 trade size designation. The riveted connection type ensures consistent link integrity under cyclic loading. At 10 feet in length and weighing 8.2 pounds, this steel chain is suited for industrial and mechanical drive systems where two-strand construction is specified to handle greater load capacity than single-strand alternatives. Licensed mechanics and millwrights are the typical installers.

This chain is used in mechanical power transmission setups across a range of industrial, agricultural, and commercial equipment applications. The 40-2 double strand configuration is common in conveyor systems, drive assemblies, and equipment where increased tensile strength and load distribution are required compared to single-strand 40 chain. The 0.7-inch overall width and 1.216-inch pin length make this chain compatible with sprockets and drive systems designed for ANSI 40-2 specification. At 10 feet, it provides enough length for most standard replacement and new-install scenarios without splicing.

Key Features

• ANSI B29.1 compliant double strand roller chain in 40-2 trade size
• 0.5-inch pitch with 0.312-inch roller diameter for precise sprocket engagement
• Riveted construction for consistent link strength and durability under load
• Steel construction for wear resistance in demanding drive applications
• 0.7-inch overall width and 0.156-inch pin diameter meet ANSI 40-2 dimensional standards
• 10-foot length supplied as a single package unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install chain for mechanical drive systems specifying ANSI 40-2 double strand roller chain with 0.5-inch pitch per ANSI B29.1.

Installation Notes

Installation of roller chain should be performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance technicians with the drive system fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use a proper chain breaker tool to cut chain to final length and a master link or connecting link rated for 40-2 double strand service to join ends. Verify sprocket alignment and chain tension after installation to minimize wear. Do not over-tension the chain, as excess tension accelerates bearing and sprocket wear.
