The A 6M 7M12-07 is a 7-meter length of single-strand, self-lubricating roller chain with a 3.12 mm pitch, made of black acetal resin. It operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +121°C, with sustained temperatures above +82°C not recommended. The chain supports running tensions up to 0.91 kgf and operates at speeds up to 5.1 m/sec with 8-tooth sprockets. It weighs approximately 0.006 kg per meter and features a unit-link design allowing adjustable length without connecting links. The chain is suitable for applications requiring low maintenance and positive drive, such as counter drives, but sustained static tension is not recommended. It has been 100% inspected for break strength, pitch, and flexibility.
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.
