[REVISION OF B29.6M-1983 (R1988)]
This Standard will be revised when the Society approves the issuance of a new
edition. There will be no addenda or written interpretations of the requirements
of this Standard issued t o this Edition.
This code or standard was developed under procedures accredited as meeting the criteria for
American National Standards. The Consensus committee that approved the code or standard was
balanced to assure that individuals from competent and concerned interests have hâd an opportunity
to participate. The proposed code or standard was made available for public review and comment
which provides an opportunity for additional public input from industry, academia, regulatory agen-
cies, and the public-at-large.
ASME does not "approve," "rate," or "endorse" any item, construction, proprietary device, or
activity.
ASME does not take any position with respect to the validity of any patent rights asserted in
connection with any items mentioned in this document, and does not undertake to insure anyone
utilizing a standard against liability for infringement of any applicable Letters Patent, nor assume
any such liability. Users of a code or standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity
of any such patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their own responsibility.
Participation by federal agency representative(s) or person(s) affiliated with industry is not to be
interpreted as government or industry endorsement of this code or standard.
ASME accepts responsibility for only those interpretations issued in accordance with governing
ASME procedures and policies which preclude the issuance of interpretations by individual volun-
teers.
FOREWORD
Detachable link power transmission chains have been used almost exclusively by ag-
ricultural implement manufacturers for power transmission and conveyors on manure
spreaders, corn pickers, planters, hay rakes, potato diggers, elevators, and many other
--`,,`,``,,``,,`,,,``,,,`,,````,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
types of machines.
The first steel detachable link chain was manufactured in 1897. This steel chain is made
from special analysis steel strip and heat treated after forming to withstand wear and
provide strength and toughness.
Early in 1950, agricultural equipment manufacturers realized the need for a standard
on steel detachable link chains, and in May 1951, a subcommittee of ASA Sectional
Committee B29 was appointed with members from the agricultural implement industry
and the steel detachable link chain industry to develop a standard for steel detachable
link chains.
During the 1960 revision, certain sizes of chains and attachments were deleted from
the standard with the intent of strengthening the standard by eliminating those of low
popularity which are closely similar to other existing sizes. In addition, several popular
chains, attachments, and couplers were added. Some attachment designs were slightly
revised. The coupler and coupler pin design were revised to the currently more popular
style which allows any link to be used either right-handed or left-handed.
This Standard establishes, in the main, only those dimensions that will provide for
interchangeability of the chains in use with restricting the chain manufacturers in their
overall design.
The 1983 revision includes the spracket dimension controlling the surfaces which must
properly engage or clear the chain.
This Edition includes updating to the current ANSI Standards format and symbols
covering chains. Number 45 and No. 67 chains have been deleted from the Standard since
they are no longer manufactured. The definition of r?iininiurn idtimute tensile strength
has been updated.
This Standard was approved by the American National Standards Institute on September
29, 1993.

The elements of the tooth forms for sprockets for standard chains are given in Table 15. They were derived from the following
formulas:
Chain pitch (nominal) =P
Number of teeth in sprocket =N
180°
Pitch diameter factor M =csc -
N
Pitch diameter Dp =P x M
Chain backing, max. (Table 1 ) =H
Root diameter D, max. = D, - 2H - 0.0015Dp
NOTES
( 1 ) Smaller pressure angles may be used provided they are not less than sin-’
face used. (8
, where L is the actual length of the working
(2) Longer lengths of working face may be used provided they do not exceed sin A, x P, where A, is the actual pressure angle
used.
(3) Larger outside diameters and higher teeth resulting from extension of the topping curves toward their intersection may be
specified. Smaller outside diameters and shorter teeth may be specified to provide attachment clearance, maintainingthe working
face length L and sacrificing the length of the topping curve.
