U.s. Tsubaki C2080HCL Connecting Link C2080H Chain

Product Description

The U.S. TSUBAKI C2080HCL is a connecting link designed for use with double pitch roller chain conforming to ANSI standard C2080H. It features a 2-inch pitch and is constructed from carbon steel, providing the durability required in industrial drive and conveyor applications. The connecting link allows a roller chain loop to be closed or opened during installation, maintenance, or replacement, making it a standard consumable for any technician working with C2080H series chain. At 0.23 pounds, it is a compact but critical component for keeping conveyor and drive systems running correctly.

This connecting link is used wherever C2080H double pitch roller chain is installed, including light-to-medium industrial conveyor systems, agricultural equipment drives, and general mechanical power transmission setups. Double pitch chain is commonly selected in applications where slower speeds and longer spans are acceptable, reducing weight and cost compared to standard pitch chain. Installation and replacement of this link is typically performed by maintenance mechanics or industrial technicians during scheduled chain service or after a chain failure event.

Key Features

• 2-inch pitch matches ANSI C2080H double pitch roller chain specifications
• Carbon steel construction for strength in standard industrial environments
• Connecting link design allows chain loop assembly and disassembly without special tooling
• Meets ANSI standards for C2080H chain compatibility
• Sold individually, allowing single-link replacement without excess stock

Compatibility

Designed for use with ANSI C2080H double pitch roller chain with a 2-inch pitch. Consult the chain manufacturer specifications to confirm link fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a maintenance mechanic or industrial technician. Always de-energize and lock out the drive system before servicing any chain component, following OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use a chain breaker or connecting link pliers as appropriate to seat the clip or cotter pin fully. Inspect the mating chain ends for wear or damage before installing the new connecting link.
