It is a single-row roller chain, which is a chain with only one row of rollers, where 1 means a single-row chain, 16A (A is generally produced in the United States) is the chain model, and the number 60 means that the chain has a total of 60 links.
The price of imported chains is higher than that of domestic chains. In terms of quality, the quality of imported chains is relatively better, but it cannot be absolutely compared, because imported chains also have various brands.
Chain lubrication methods and precautions:
Lubricate the chain after each cleaning, wiping, or solvent cleaning, and make sure the chain is dry before lubricating. First penetrate the lubricating oil into the chain bearing area, and then wait until it becomes sticky or dry. This can really lubricate the parts of the chain that are prone to wear (joints on both sides).
A good lubricating oil, which feels like water at first and is easy to penetrate, but will become sticky or dry after a while, can play a long-lasting role in lubrication. After applying lubricating oil, use a dry cloth to wipe off excess oil on the chain to avoid adhesion of dirt and dust.
It should be noted that before reinstalling the chain, the joints of the chains should be cleaned to ensure that there is no residue of dirt. After the chain is cleaned, some lubricating oil must be applied to the inside and outside of the connecting shaft when assembling the Velcro buckle.
