The 06-B3 is a single-strand roller chain built to the European BS standard. It runs on a 3/8" pitch and uses a 6.35 mm roller with a 5.72 mm inner width, so it mates with BS sprockets of the same pitch. This is a light-duty chain intended for low loads and moderate speeds in small machinery.

When you read the code, 06 identifies the 3/8" pitch and B3 identifies the series and strand count. The roller measures 6.35 mm across, and the inner width between the plates is 5.72 mm. Those two dimensions, not the pitch alone, decide whether the chain will sit correctly on your sprocket. The chain is supplied by the meter or as a pre-assembled section, depending on what your job calls for.

You will find this size on low-power drives: light conveyors, packaging units, bakery equipment, agitators, automatic doors, and small motorized or hand-operated mechanisms. It also shows up in food-processing lines and in shops that build compact equipment. Anywhere two parallel shafts run at a fixed ratio over a short center distance, this chain is a candidate.

Before installation, confirm that the sprockets are BS standard and share the same pitch. A 06-B3 will not interchange with an ANSI chain, even when the pitch looks close. Check that the shafts are aligned and set tension with a slight amount of sag. Keep the chain lubricated with a compatible oil or grease, and watch the rollers and sprocket teeth for wear. Jumping or noise usually points to a stretched chain or misalignment.

If the exact size is not what you need, or you want an equivalent, send the 06-B3 code or the measurements from your sample: pitch, roller diameter, and inner width. We can also check another size in the same BS series when the 06-B3 does not suit the application. With those figures we verify fit against your sprocket and come back with the option that works.

To request a quote, message us on WhatsApp or by email and include the 06-B3 code. A photo of the old chain or its measurements helps us confirm the match. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies power transmission parts and can help you select the right chain for your equipment.
