Diamond H series roller chain connects shafts and carries motion from one sprocket to the next in a drive. It comes in a range of pitches and strand counts, so the same series covers light duties as well as heavier equipment. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies it to maintenance and purchasing teams and helps match a chain to the drive and the conditions it runs in.
The code tells you the size. Take the pitch number first, then the suffix, which gives the strand count: 60H-2 is pitch 60 in two strands, 80H-3 is pitch 80 in three strands, and 100H-4 is pitch 100 in four strands. The letter H marks the heavy-duty pitch series, and the last digit says whether the chain is single, double, triple or quadruple. Read that way, 140H-2 and 240H-3 are simply larger pitches running in more than one strand for heavier transmission work.
You will find these chains in food processing, cement, mining, oil, paper, steel and material handling operations, and in conveyors, elevators, mill drives, mixers, pumps and process equipment where power has to keep moving. Agricultural machinery and continuous production lines are common places for them as well.
Pitch, strand count, power to transmit, speed and lubrication type all feed into the selection. On installation, align the sprockets carefully, set the tension correctly, and keep the lubrication clean and steady. Where dust, moisture or high temperature is present, look at added protection and inspect for wear on a regular schedule so failures do not come early.
Chains from one brand can replace another when pitch, strand count and standardized dimensions line up. Compare the full designation plus roller and plate dimensions before substituting. If the original code is unclear, send it to us and we will point you to a compatible equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I work out which chain I need?
- Check the designation stamped on the chain or shown on the equipment plate. The leading number is the pitch and the suffix is the strand count. If neither is readable, send a photo or the main measurements on WhatsApp and we will help you identify it.
- What does the H in the series stand for?
- It indicates the heavy-duty pitch series, which uses stronger plates and rollers than the standard series. That suits drives carrying higher loads or working in tough conditions.
- Can a Diamond chain replace one from another brand?
- Yes, provided pitch, strand count and standardized dimensions match. Roller chains are built to standards that allow interchange between manufacturers. Send us the original code and we will confirm the equivalent.
