U.s. Tsubaki 80OL Offset Link Ansi 80 Single Strand Chain

Product Description

The U.S. TSUBAKI 80OL is a carbon steel offset link designed for use with single strand ANSI 80 roller chain. Offset links allow a chain run to be shortened or lengthened by a single pitch without removing full inner and outer link pairs. This link is built to the ANSI standard with a 1 inch pitch, matching the dimensional requirements of standard 80 chain. It is typically installed by industrial maintenance technicians, conveyor system mechanics, and power transmission specialists working on drive and conveyor chain applications.

The 80OL is suited for general-purpose power transmission and conveyor drive applications where ANSI 80 single strand chain is specified. Common install scenarios include industrial machinery drives, agricultural equipment, and material handling conveyor lines. The 1 inch pitch and single strand configuration make this link a standard replacement or field adjustment component wherever ANSI 80 chain is in service.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction for durability in standard power transmission environments
• 1 inch pitch matches ANSI 80 chain dimensional requirements exactly
• Offset link design allows single-pitch chain length adjustment without disassembling full link pairs
• Meets ANSI standards for dimensional and load compatibility with ANSI 80 chain
• Single strand configuration for straightforward installation on standard single-row drives

Compatibility

Designed for use with single strand ANSI 80 roller chain with a 1 inch pitch.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by industrial maintenance technicians or power transmission specialists. De-energize and lock out the drive system completely before servicing any chain drive. Use appropriate chain assembly pliers or a press-type chain tool to seat the connecting plate and cotter pin or clip securely. Confirm the offset link orientation matches chain travel direction per the manufacturer assembly instructions before returning the drive to service.
