A 6M 7-37PLP is a 3/8-inch pitch roller chain made of polypropylene, designed for power transmission applications. It has a roller diameter of 0.200 inches, a pin diameter of 0.141 inches, a width of 0.075 inches, a height of 0.35 inches, and a length of 0.545 inches. The chain has a tensile strength at break of 66 lbf, elongation at ultimate of 10%, and a maximum operating speed of 4000 ft/min. The material operates within a temperature range of -30°F to +180°F. It is priced per foot and matches the specifications for Figure 1 roller chains in the series.
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.
