Re: Where Could I Purchase #35 Chain?

#35 chain - Northern Tool $10/box of 10 feet w/ one master link: http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/w...9474_200139474

#35 chain - Surplus Center $13/box of 10 feet w/ one master link: http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.as...ame=powerTrans

#35 chain - Surplus Center various other types (double, stainless, etc.): http://www.surpluscenter.com/sort.as...k eyword=PC35

#35 links - Surplus Center ($.35 master links, etc.): http://www.surpluscenter.com/sort.as...k eyword=PL35

Surplus Center also has sprockets and other stuff cheaper than McMaster-Carr and MSC.

I have used the chain and links from Northern Tool and Surplus Center and it works fine. No failures at all. It is not Browning but doesn't cost as much either.

BTW: Nothern Tool is also a good place for wheels and sprockets. Look around in their Go-Cart parts section.

Also, don't forget a chain breaker like this: http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.as...i tem=14-1037

It is an invaluable "special tool" for any FIRST tool box!

Has anyone found a chain breaker similar to this specifically for 25 chain?

I find that ours often ends up bending the link instead of pushing the pin out, due to the anvil being too large.

Nope, I've looked and never found one either. If you find one let us all know!
