40 Roller Chain Specs
We offer a variety of RS40 chains to address specific needs. Below are some 40 roller chains with different specifications designed to address challenges in 40 roller chain applications. Our ANSI 40 roller chain is made from high-quality steel components and features heat-treated and shot-peened components.
40 Roller Chain Solution
We manufacture 40 roller chains using high-quality materials and offer various material options to meet special requirements and applications.
If you don't find a solution that meets your requirements, please contact us for customized options.
Carbon Steel 40 Roller Chain
Our carbon steel #40 roller chain boasts high strength and wear resistance, making it ideal for typical operating environments. ANSI 40 roller chain finds applications in various industries, including general industrial and agricultural machinery.
Stainless Steel 40 Roller Chain
Stainless steel #40 roller chains are characterized by their high resistance to corrosion, making them well-suited for use in demanding environments. ANSI 40SS roller chain finds applications across various industries including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and marine equipment, where durability and reliability are needed.
Nickel Plated 40 Roller Chain
In humid and mildly corrosive environments, Nickel-plated #40 roller chains showcase their resistance to rust and corrosion, rendering them suitable. The 40NP roller chains are mostly employed in food processing equipment and outdoor machinery.
40 Roller Chain Accessories
Whether you need 40 roller chain attachments, #40 roller chain connecting links, 40 chain sprockets, or roller chain breakers, we have a full range of accessories. If you need any #40 chain accessories, please contact us.
#40 roller chain attachments are essential components designed to enhance the functionality and adaptability of standard 40 roller chains. ANSI 40 roller chains with attachments are commonly used in conveyors, packaging, and agricultural machinery.
40 Chain Connecting Links
40 roller chain connecting link, also known as a #40 master link, is a removable component used to join or disconnect sections of a roller chain. It allows quick and easy maintenance, making the roller chain assemble or disassemble in machinery.
40 roller chain breakers are designed to cut and break roller chains efficiently. It simplifies removing or resizing chains by separating the links without damaging them.
ANSI 40 roller chain sprockets are engaged with size 40 roller chains. We have a complete selection of 40 chain sprockets ranging from A-plate, B-hub, taper-bushed, plain bore sprocket, and finished bore sprocket configurations.
40 Roller Chain Sprocket
Complete your #40 roller chain drive with matching ANSI 40 sprockets manufactured to B29.1 tolerances. Choose from plain bore, finished bore, and taper bore sprockets in carbon or stainless steel, plus idler and double-single options for multi-strand applications. Every sprocket is cut to match our chain pitch exactly, so your drive runs quietly and wears evenly.
40 Roller Chain Application
ANSI #40 roller chain is widely used in many industries and has become the main chain size for most applications. Each component of our #40 chain is precisely manufactured and professionally heat-treated and shot-peened for optimal performance. Keep in mind that the standard carbon steel #40 chain is designed to operate in temperatures from 15°F to 140°F, with a heat-treated hardness range of HRC 45-55. For any situations outside this range, please contact us for a solution.

FAQs
What is a #40 roller chain?
A #40 roller chain is an ANSI B29.1 standard chain with a 0.500" (12.7 mm) pitch. It is one of the most widely used roller chain sizes in industrial, agricultural, and packaging equipment.
What is the difference between #40 and #41 roller chain?
Both have the same 0.500" pitch, but the #41 chain has a narrower roller width (0.250" vs 0.312"). #40 is a heavier-duty ANSI standard chain; #41 is lighter and primarily used in smaller drive applications. They are not interchangeable on the same sprockets.
Is #40 chain interchangeable with 08B chain?
No. Both have a 12.7 mm pitch, but 08B is a metric series chain with a different roller width and plate dimensions, and it is dimensionally incompatible with ANSI #40 sprockets.
