Re: Picking Out Roller Chain

Double pitch roller chain has a pitch twice as large as single pitch equivlant chain. A double pitch chain should have the same strength as it's ansi equivlant, but weigh less because there are fewer rollers (note that a chain's pitch is the distance between rivets).

Thats the best I can do without a picture, you might try searching chain pitch on google.
