The 48B-3 Single Crank Link For British Standard Series Chain (offset half-link) allows precise length adjustments on 48B Triple Strand (Triplex) British Standard Chains by adding or subtracting an odd number of pitches (1 pitch = 76.20 mm (3.000 in / 3″)). Conforming to BS 228 / ISO 606 (48B) / DIN 8187, it provides the ideal solution for fixed center-distance drives requiring fine chain tensioning.

Key Technical Specifications & Advantages

  • Accurate Chain Tensioning: Solves center-distance alignment challenges where idler sprockets or adjustable take-up frames cannot be installed.
  • Contoured Offset Link Plates: Formed from high-tensile heat-treated alloy steel to distribute stress evenly across the crank offset geometry.
  • Matched Precision Dimensions: Formed to exact 76.20 mm (3.000 in / 3″) pitch, 45.72 mm (1.800 in) inner width, and 48.26 mm (1.900 in) roller/bushing diameter.
  • Heavy-Duty Hardened Pin: Supplied complete with precision-ground pin and secure fastener clip.

Operating Recommendation

Designed for intermediate chain tension adjustment on British Standard conveyor and drive installations.
