Tritan 40-1SS OSL Riveted Chain Offset Link
Stainless steel offset link for single-strand roller chain in food processing and hostile environments
- Stainless steel 300 resists corrosion in food processing
- Riveted pin construction handles hostile environments
- Single-strand offset link fits chain number 40
- Plain finish withstands caustic wash-down applications
- 1/2 in pitch matches standard roller chain dimensions
Food-Processing Chain Component
The Tritan 40-1SS OSL is a riveted offset link made from 300-grade stainless steel for single-strand roller chains in food processing, pharmaceutical and hostile-environment applications. It replaces a damaged link without breaking the chain, keeping production lines running in caustic wash-down and high-temperature conditions.
Build Integration Requirements
The link matches 40-series chain with a 1/2 in pitch, 5/16 in roller diameter and 5/16 in inside width for direct pin-to-pin engagement. Its 21/32 in overall width fits existing sprockets and guides, while the plain finish and light oil preservative let installers add the required food-grade lubricant after assembly.
Upgrade Context
This offset link upgrades from carbon-steel or lower-grade alloy links that corrode under frequent chemical wash-downs or elevated temperatures. The jump is worth it when regulatory compliance demands 300-series stainless construction and when downtime for full chain replacement is unacceptable. It does not suit heavy-series chain or multi-strand drives.

Questions about this item
How long does the stainless-steel offset link last in continuous food-processing wash-down cycles before corrosion appears?
The 300-grade stainless steel and riveted pin construction resist caustic wash-down chemicals, extending service life in hostile, high-temperature environments.
Does the single-strand 40-pitch chain run hot or draw extra power during all-day pharmaceutical line operation?
Light oil preservative lubrication and plain finish keep friction low, so the 1/2 in pitch offset link adds minimal heat or power draw on sustained runs.
Which master link or connecting pin must I already have to install this 5/16 in roller-diameter offset link?
A standard #40 riveted master link with 5/16 in inside width matches the 21/32 in overall width for direct installation.
