Mechanical power transmission products are essential components in many industrial and commercial applications. They are used to transfer power from one rotating shaft to another, typically through using belts, chains, or couplings. We will take a closer look at the common types of mechanical power transmission parts.

Like all mechanical power transmission products, roller chains are also suspectable to wear and elongation overtime. Here we explain the common causes and some possible solutions to minimize wear.

We've outgrown our current warehouse, so we acquired a new facility earlier this year. The new warehouse gives Nitro over twice the amount of warehouse stocking capacity, plus additional room for future warehouse expansions.

Introducing Nitro's 2nd generation roller chain, the N2 series, which was developed with 3 new enhanced features. These features improve the chains overall performance and service life in many demanding applications.

With the ever growing population across the world, it takes more and more food to feed everyone. Agricultural equipment has evolved into complex machines designed for accurate, precise and more efficient farming. Today, many parts of farm equipment are powered by roller chains and sprockets. In this article we're going to cover 5 different types of machines that use various styles of chain and sprockets.

All roller chain needs to be maintained with proper lubrication for optimum performance and to maximize a roller chains life span. Learn more about roller chain lubrication, types and methods.
