A 6M 7-50PLV is a 1/2 pitch roller chain made of polyvinylidene fluoride with a tensile strength at break of 141 lbf, an elongation at ultimate of 7%, and a maximum operating speed of 3000 ft/min. The chain has a roller diameter of 5/16 inch, a pin diameter of 0.156 inch, a total length of 0.725 inch, and a width of 0.46 inch. It operates within a temperature range of -50°F to +140°F.
Chain and sprocket drives are often used where positive synchronization between shafts and transmission of substantial torque are required. They are one of the more frequently used methods of power transmission, providing greater power than belts. Highly efficient, a single chain can drive several shafts and is used for both long and short distances. Adverse conditions, such as temperature and environment, do not affect their running. Other advantages include compact size and low maintenance costs. Chain drives are found in a wide range of power transmission applications, including bicycles, agricultural machinery, machine tools, conveyors, business machines, electronic or electro-mechanical devices, etc.
