Re: 25 Series Chain

Yes, #25 chain is plenty strong enough, as long as it's tensioned properly, and is not subjected to any twisting forces. Because it's so small, #25 chain is quite sensitive to being twisted, much more than #35 chain.

We used it to steer our swerve modules on our 2007 robot, and it faired pretty well.

Success doesn't always equate to match wins. It's about the wins off the field.
