KCM 05B-2 BS Roller Chain Offset/Half Link Duplex 8 mm Pitch

KCM is an industrial chain brand supplying ASA and BS roller chain, leaf chain, connecting links, and offset links in simplex, duplex, and triplex strand configurations for power transmission, conveyor, and lifting applications in engineering, manufacturing, and agricultural operations across Australia.

KCM roller chain offset links (half links and crank links) provide the means to adjust roller chain length by a single pitch without requiring a full additional link, for use on ASA and BS roller chains in simplex, duplex, and triplex strand configurations across standard and H-type chain series.

Where this product is used

KCM chain offset link products are used in industrial power transmission, conveyor systems, agricultural machinery, forklift masts, and general mechanical drives requiring reliable chain and chain component supply.

• Offset (half) links for adjusting ASA and BS roller chain length by one pitch in simplex, duplex, and triplex configurations.
• Cottered H-type and crank-style offset links for heavy-duty chain drive applications where a secure, load-rated half-link is required.
• Stainless steel and nickel-plated offset links for corrosion-resistant chain assemblies in food, chemical, and agricultural applications.

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

Select offset links by chain pitch series and strand count to match the roller chain being adjusted. Offset links reduce a chain by one pitch — confirm the resulting chain length suits the drive centre distance before ordering. Match the offset link type (standard, H-type, cottered, crank) to the chain series and loading requirements. Contact AIMS for KCM offset links in specific pitch sizes or chain types not listed.
