The chain is fine...but I ordered the wrong size. Nine links of the chain I ordered equals six of the size I wanted. My error...
How can I straighten out the springs? I can't use them coil uo as is.

When a worn or snapped drive chain brings your equipment to a halt, every minute of downtime costs you. Whether you're a maker repairing a go-kart, a technician maintaining a conveyor line, or a cyclist rebuilding a custom drivetrain, finding the right replacement chain with the correct pitch and type is critical. This #35 roller drive chain is engineered to meet the dimensional standards that keep your drive system running smoothly.
This listing covers two standard roller chain types — 06B-1 and 06C-1 — both sharing a pitch of 3/8" (9.525mm). Constructed from steel with a hardened roller and precision-formed link plates, these chains are built to handle the cyclic loads of continuous drive applications. Each unit is sold individually (1pcs per order) and is compatible with standard #35 / 06B sprockets.
Typical applications include light-duty conveyor systems, small engine power transmission, go-kart and mini-bike drivetrains, agricultural equipment drives, and DIY automation projects requiring a compact, reliable roller chain solution.

Both 06B-1 and 06C-1 share the same 9.525mm (3/8") pitch, but they differ in roller diameter and inner link plate width. 06B-1 follows the ISO 606 British standard, while 06C-1 is a variant with slightly different roller and plate dimensions. Always verify your sprocket's chain specification before selecting a type.
If your sprocket is rated for #35 or 06B chain with a 9.525mm pitch, the 06B-1 variant should be compatible. For 06C-1 sprockets, select the 06C-1 type. Always cross-reference the roller diameter and inner width with your sprocket's groove dimensions to confirm fit before installation.
The breaking load varies by chain type (06B-1 vs 06C-1). As a general reference, standard #35 / 06B-1 chains typically have a minimum breaking load in the range of 8–9 kN. For exact load ratings, refer to the variant-specific datasheet or contact us to confirm before use in safety-critical applications.
This chain is made from steel and is suitable for sheltered or indoor environments. For outdoor or wet applications, we recommend applying a chain lubricant regularly to prevent rust and extend service life. If your application involves prolonged moisture exposure, consider a stainless steel or nickel-plated chain variant.
Yes. The #35 / 06B-1 roller chain is a common choice for go-karts and mini-bikes with small engine drives. Verify that your drive and driven sprockets are rated for #35 chain with 9.525mm pitch. Ensure the chain length matches your center-to-center distance and that a master link or connecting link is used for joining.
Standard roller chains are joined using a master link (also called a connecting link) that clips onto the outer plates. To shorten the chain, use a chain breaker tool to press out a pin at the desired link. Replacement master links for #35 / 06B chain are widely available and sold separately.
Chain length is determined by the center-to-center distance between your drive and driven sprockets, plus the number of teeth on each sprocket. Use the standard chain length formula: L = 2C/P + (N+n)/2 + P(N-n)²/(4π²C), where C is center distance, P is pitch, N and n are sprocket tooth counts. When in doubt, order slightly longer and trim to fit.
