I'm guessing that the load would never be over 100 pounds on this
thing, unless my kids get to using it as an amusement ride! So, I got
to thinking, I wonder what the ultimate strength of #25 roller chain
is in tension? Do you have any idea where to find this information or
do you happen to have it handy? Thanks!

that information.

Hell, I know where to find that information.

Oh, really? You do know that the values change by manufacturer, don't
you?
You do know that different manufacturers use different grades of steel
IN their chain, don't you?
You do know that different manufacturers various chain parts, like
pins, rollers, standard links, make-up links, etc. vary a lot, don't
you?
In other words, you don't have a damned clue what you are talking
about, go back to watching your Drew Carey reruns.

I'm smart enough to call the tech support folks at a chain manufacturer
or distributor and ask, dummy.

Your question was, "Do you have any idea where to find this information?"

My answer was, "I know where to find that information.

D'oh.

Do you suppose these folks might have some answers?

If I was using Diamond chain, perhaps. Then again, please show me on
that website where they give the ULTIMATE tensile load of #25
chain......

As you point out different manufacturers probably have different specs
depending on the their particular process. You didn't give any particulars
except for the size.

Here's one example:

Thanks. There is a lot more to it than Harry understands. Hell, I can
take the components of a chain and calculate the ultimate tensile
strength but there are sprockets involved with X number of teeth, with
Y number of teeth in full contact, and on and on. Gene or you or
someone will know of a site that will have this information. Harry is
just being his refined, cultured self. He's never even seen a set of
calcs for chain/sprocket combos.

Harry,
Did you trash this post, that had the ability to morph into a topic
about the strength of chain rode?
