The TSUBAKI RS B-LMX series is a BS metric-pitch roller chain built with a surface treatment and a special lubricant, aimed at drives where relubrication is difficult to schedule. It transfers motion between parallel shafts on industrial machinery and holds up in tough operating conditions. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series and helps you match pitch, strand count and length to your drive.

Reading the code is the fastest way to pick a chain. Take RS08B-LMX-1: 08B is the pitch size, the half-inch one, LMX marks the long-life lubrication version, and the closing 1 means a single strand. The same pattern runs through RS10B-LMX-1, RS12B-LMX-1 and RS16B-LMX-1, each at a larger pitch. Change that last digit and you change how many strands the chain carries.

These chains show up in food processing conveyors, packaging lines, textile equipment, bottling drives and farm machinery, as well as woodworking machines and lifting systems. They run with sprockets of matching pitch on parallel shafts, so chain and sprocket are always specified as a pair. We supply them for both replacement work and new builds.

Before ordering, confirm three things: pitch, number of strands and total length in links. The LMX build already carries the long-life lubricant, which suits equipment kept on long service intervals. Sprocket alignment and tension matter just as much: an over-tightened chain wears faster, a slack one climbs the teeth. Inspect the sprockets too, since worn teeth will pull a new chain down with them.

BS-standard roller chains of the same pitch interchange across manufacturers, so pitch and strand count are usually enough to locate a replacement. Lubrication and treatment versions do not always cross over, though, so it pays to check the application before swapping. Send us the part number or the marking on the old chain and we will compare it against what is available.

For a quote, message us on WhatsApp with the complete part number, or with the pitch and strand count if the number is unreadable. We answer quickly with the matching reference. If the exact variant is unclear, share the details of the chain you are replacing and we will help you pin down the right one.
