The TSUBAKI RS-HP series is a roller chain line built for power transmission in tough industrial settings. It connects toothed shafts and carries motion through a wide range of machinery. The design focuses on handling high loads and keeping up reliability where durability matters. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series as part of its power transmission range.
The code tells you the pitch size. In RS40-HP, RS50-HP, RS60-HP and RS80-HP, the number before the dash sets the standardized pitch. The HP ending means a high-performance build with stronger plates and pins for higher working loads. That makes picking a chain by transmission need straightforward once you know the pitch.
You will find these chains in food processing, cement, mining and general manufacturing. Common equipment includes conveyors, elevators, machine tools, bottling lines and low- to medium-speed drives. Dust, humidity or moderate temperatures do not rule them out, so they work well for maintenance and replacement jobs.
When selecting an RS-HP chain, look at the power to transmit, shaft speed, sprocket tooth count and center distance. Shaft alignment and correct tension are critical to avoid early wear. Use the lubricant called for by the speed and load; in critical drives, a high-viscosity lubricant and regular checks of chain elongation are recommended.
Roller chains made to the same pitch and dimension standard can often be swapped between brands. Before replacing, compare pitch, inner width and roller diameter, and confirm the sprockets match. Our team can help you find equivalents for the RS-HP series and suggest the right option.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the HP suffix indicate in the RS-HP series?
- It marks a high-performance version that uses reinforced plates and pins to handle higher loads than the standard series, making it suitable for more demanding drives.
- How do I pick the right RS-HP chain size?
- Consider the power to transmit, speed, sprockets and center distance. The number before RS is the standardized pitch. If you are unsure, send your equipment details by WhatsApp and we will help.
- Can RS-HP chains replace other brands?
- Often yes, if they follow the same pitch and dimension standard. Check pitch, inner width and roller diameter when replacing. We can advise on equivalences.
