The Duralube LIVE roller chain from Diamond belongs to a line built for drives where lubrication has a direct effect on how long the chain lasts. You will find it on shaft drives and mechanisms in processing plants, production lines and farm equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies it to customers throughout the United States and Latin America, quoting by part number through WhatsApp or email.
Reading the code is straightforward once you know the pattern. The digits give the pitch, and the letters DLR close out the designation. A chain such as 40 DLR, 50 DLR, 60 DLR or 80 DLR is a single-strand unit. Add the -2 and you are looking at a two-strand version: 40-2 DLR, 50-2 DLR, 60-2 DLR and 80-2 DLR. So the suffix tells you how many strands run side by side, while the number sets the pitch.
Typical duty for these chains is low to medium speed transmission. Food processing, cement, mining and agriculture all rely on them, and they show up on conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, bottling lines and road machinery. The Duralube LIVE line suits equipment where grease points are hard to reach or where maintenance intervals need to be stretched.
When you size a replacement, work from the pitch, the strand count, the sprocket tooth counts and the center distance. Check that the sprockets line up and are not worn, since hooked or worn teeth speed up chain elongation. Regular tension checks and proper lubrication carry most of the service life. For dirty or damp locations, pick the variant with the treatment suited to that environment.
Pitch and strand count identify any roller chain, and brands often use equivalent designations for the same size. Bring us a part number from another manufacturer or a sample link, and we will point you to the matching equivalent. Brand matching is not the issue; pitch, width and strand count are what have to line up with your drive.
To get a quote, send the full part number by WhatsApp, for example 60-2 DLR, or simply tell us the pitch and number of strands. Our team answers promptly and can suggest the option that fits your equipment. If the designation is unclear, share the machine model and we will help you pin it down.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the -2 in a Duralube LIVE part number tell me?
- It means the chain is double-strand, so two rows of rollers run in parallel. A 50-2 DLR, for instance, carries two strands instead of one. If your original chain is single-strand, the number will not have the -2.
- How can I find out which pitch my machine uses?
- Measure from the center of one roller to the center of the next one; the result is the pitch, given in inches or as the standard number. If measuring is not practical, send a photo of the chain and the part number from the equipment plate, and we will identify the pitch and strand count.
- Is it possible to swap a chain from another brand for a Diamond Duralube LIVE?
- Yes, provided the pitch, inner width and strand count are the same. Chains from different makers interchange when they follow the same size standard. Send the original part number and we will quote the Diamond equivalent.
