Tsubaki RS40-LMC Single Pitch Lambda Attachment Chain

Description:

The Tsubaki RS40-LMC Single Pitch Lambda Attachment Chain is used in industrial conveyor and power transmission systems requiring maintenance-free, self-lubricating chain operation with attachment mounting capabilities. Commonly installed in packaging machinery, conveyor systems, automated assembly lines, food processing equipment, and material handling applications where reduced maintenance and reliable conveying are essential. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this chain for repair, retrofit, expansion, or replacement to minimize downtime and eliminate routine chain lubrication.

Applications:

The Tsubaki RS40-LMC Lambda attachment chain is designed for conveying and power transmission applications where lubrication is difficult or undesirable. Its oil-impregnated bushings provide long service life without external lubrication, while integrated attachment options allow fixtures, carriers, and custom components to be mounted directly to the chain. It is widely used in packaging equipment, bottling lines, food processing machinery, assembly automation, and material handling systems operating in clean or hard-to-maintain environments.
