Re: Question on designing using #35 Chains

We use the calculators.

do the 1st pass with "chain length calc"

then do a 2nd pass with the "sprocket center dist calc" using the number of integer number of links (rounded up or down) calculated on the 1st pass.

when you assemble the machine, use a good chain tensionerr to draw the chain together.

and you will be good to go.
