When moisture, vapors or frequent washdowns are part of the daily routine, the TSUBAKI RS B-NEP series roller chain is built to handle those conditions. It follows the BS standard for metric pitch and uses materials and treatments that resist corrosion. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this chain to customers across the United States and Latin America, and can help you match the right pitch and strand count to your drive.

The code breaks down into four parts. RS marks the BS-pitch roller chain family. The number after it gives the pitch size: larger numbers mean a bigger pitch and more capacity to transmit power. The letter B confirms the BS series, while NEP signals the corrosion-resistant version. The final digit tells you the number of strands: -1 for single, -2 for double. So the full code captures pitch, series and strand count, all with anti-corrosion treatment.

You will find these chains in food and beverage processing, washdown zones, water treatment, tanneries and any area where chemicals or constant dampness are present. They drive conveyors, packaging equipment, washing systems and outdoor or high-condensation transmissions. The corrosion-resistant design helps them last longer than standard chains in these settings.

Selection starts with pitch, strand count, power requirements and sprocket speed. Make sure the sprocket matches the BS pitch and that the lubrication you use is appropriate for a corrosive environment. Proper shaft alignment and correct tension go a long way toward preventing premature wear. For washdown exposure, the NEP version is the right choice, and you should check rollers and pins on a regular basis.

BS-pitch roller chains from different manufacturers are interchangeable when pitch, inner width and strand count are the same. TSUBAKI is a well-known name in the market, and MR Industrial Accessories offers this chain as part of its power transmission range. If you are replacing an existing chain, compare the standard dimensions and ask us about an equivalent to the code on the plate or in the equipment manual.
