This year my team's robot had 8" wheels and 22t sprockets, which stressed #25 chain more than in any of our previous drivetrains, and had zero issues. On the other hand, we broke our #25 intake arm chains multiple times, and in the future we will likely use #35 chain for arm applications. At least for our team, we have found applications for both #25 and #35 chain.
