I'm looking for a full strength rated connecting link for 3/8" Grade 100 chain that will fit in the pockets of this chain wheel.
This is for a close loop system for moving carts though an assembly line.
I'm making the drive with the chain wheel and the customer is somehow making the connection, I assume by welding a link that they have cut and welded back into place.
The Figure 8 connectors are too big for this application.
In the marine industry we use Stud Link chain and there are Kenter links that work with the windlass, but that type of chain starts at 3/4".
I've been looking PEWAG chain and accessories, but they only go down to 22mm.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards, David
