   "DIN 766 is the short-link round steel chain (calibrated, for chain wheels); the columns are the standard's letters as the sources head them: d wire diameter, t pitch (inside length), b1 minimum inside width, b2 maximum outside width, length of 11 pitches, mass per metre. The fasteners.eu table lists d 4 to 42 mm; the SCIC Chain table lists 10 to 42 mm (it names its rows d × t, so 10 × 28 is d 10, t 28).",
   "The two DIN 766 tables agree on pitch t and outside width b2 for every size they share (10, 13, 16, 18, 20, 23, 26, 30, 36, 42) but not on the minimum inside width b1: fasteners.eu prints b1 = 1.2 × d (for example 12 for d 10, 15.6 for d 13, 24 for d 20, 50 for d 42) while SCIC prints b1 = 1.4 × d at most sizes (14 for d 10, 18 for d 13, 28 for d 20, 54.5 for d 42). Both are shown; which belongs to your edition of the standard is not decided here. Check b1 against the standard you work to before sizing a mating part.",
   "DIN 5685 is the short, medium and long link chain family (not calibrated). The RS Components datasheet gives, for each chain size, the link style, the inside link length with its tolerance and the minimum inside link width; its table covers 2.5 to 7 mm and carries the note that the 6.5 mm row is not a preferred size covered by DIN 5685:1991 (the note's placement in the extracted text is ambiguous; it is repeated here for the 6.5 mm row only). One Kramp listing (Ø5 mm × 21 mm, sold as DIN 5685 short link) shows inner length 21 mm, which agrees with RS, inner width 10 mm and outer sizes 31 × 20 mm; that listing is a sold chain's actual size, not a limit, and the RS minimum inside width for Ø5 is 9.0 mm. Load-Tech's DIN 5685A table (gauge, step, width B) is shown as printed with its own caution that actual dimensions may differ; it is not cross-checked against RS (its step values equal RS inside lengths for 3, 4, 5 and 6 mm, which is what 'step' appears to mean there).",
   "Chain for lifting is not covered here: DIN 766 and DIN 5685 are general-purpose chain, and the page leaves out breaking and working loads on purpose. Alloy lifting chain (Grade 80, 100) and proof coil: welded-link-chain-nacm-grades-30-43-70-80-100.",
   "No file: a chain link's end radii, weld and the link bend are not published as numbers in the tables read. McMaster-Carr sells chain with per-part STEP; its chain categories are linked, not copied."

The fasteners.eu table lists d 4 to 42 mm; the SCIC Chain table lists 10 to 42 mm (it names its rows d × t, so 10 × 28 is d 10, t 28).\n- The two DIN 766 tables agree on pitch t and outside width b2 for every size they share (10, 13, 16, 18, 20, 23, 26, 30, 36, 42) but not on the minimum inside width b1: fasteners.eu prints b1 = 1.2 × d (for example 12 for d 10, 15.6 for d 13, 24 for d 20, 50 for d 42) while SCIC prints b1 = 1.4 × d at most sizes (14 for d 10, 18 for d 13, 28 for d 20, 54.5 for d 42). Both are shown; which belongs to your edition of the standard is not decided here. Check b1 against the standard you work to before sizing a mating part.\n- DIN 5685 is the short, medium and long link chain family (not calibrated). The RS Components datasheet gives, for each chain size, the link style, the inside link length with its tolerance and the minimum inside link width; its table covers 2.5 to 7 mm and carries the note that the 6.5 mm row is not a preferred size covered by DIN 5685:1991 (the note's placement in the extracted text is ambiguous; it is repeated here for the 6.5 mm row only). One Kramp listing (Ø5 mm × 21 mm, sold as DIN 5685 short link) shows inner length 21 mm, which agrees with RS, inner width 10 mm and outer sizes 31 × 20 mm; that listing is a sold chain's actual size, not a limit, and the RS minimum inside width for Ø5 is 9.0 mm. Load-Tech's DIN 5685A table (gauge, step, width B) is shown as printed with its own caution that actual dimensions may differ; it is not cross-checked against RS (its step values equal RS inside lengths for 3, 4, 5 and 6 mm, which is what 'step' appears to mean there).\n- Chain for lifting is not covered here: DIN 766 and DIN 5685 are general-purpose chain, and the page leaves out breaking and working loads on purpose. Alloy lifting chain (Grade 80, 100) and proof coil: welded-link-chain-nacm-grades-30-43-70-80-100.\n- No file: a chain link's end radii, weld and the link bend are not published as numbers in the tables read. McMaster-Carr sells chain with per-part STEP; its chain categories are linked, not copied.\n\nstandard / link style  designation  wire dia d (mm)  pitch t / inside length (mm)  inside width b1 (mm)  outside width b2 (mm)  length of 11 t (mm)  mass (kg/m)  second source / cross-check\nDIN 766  4 × 16  4  16  4.8 min  13.6 max  176  0.32  —\nDIN 766  5 × 18.5  5  18.5  6 min  17 max  203.5  0.5  —\nDIN 766  6 × 18.5  6  18.5  7.2 min  20.4 max  203.5  0.8  —\nDIN 766  7 × 22  7  22  8.4 min  23.8 max  242  1.1  —\nDIN 766  8 × 24  8  24  9.6 min  27.2 max  264  1.4  —\nDIN 766  9 × 27  9  27  10.8 min  30.6 max  297  1.8  —\nDIN 766  10 × 28  10  28  12 min  36 max  308  2.3  pitch 28, b1 14 min, b2 36 max\nDIN 766  11 × 31  11  31  13.2 min  40 max  341  2.7  —\nDIN 766  13 × 36  13  36  15.6 min  47 max  396  3.9  pitch 36, b1 18 min, b2 47 max\nDIN 766  14 × 41  14  41  16.8 min  50 max  451  4.4  —\nDIN 766  16 × 45  16  45  19.2 min  58 max  495  5.8  pitch 45, b1 22.5 min, b2 58 max\nDIN 766  18 × 50  18  50  21.6 min  65 max  550  7.4  pitch 50, b1 25 min, b2 65 max\nDIN 766  20 × 56  20  56  24 min  72 max  616  9  pitch 56, b1 28 min, b2 72 max\nDIN 766  23 × 64  23  64  27.6 min  83 max  704  12  pitch 64, b1 32 min, b2 83 max\nDIN 766  26 × 73  26  73  31.2 min  94 max  803  15  pitch 73, b1 34 min, b2 94 max\nDIN 766  28 × 78  28  78  33.6 min  101 max  858  18  —\nDIN 766  30 × 84  30  84  36 min  108 max  924  20  pitch 84, b1 39 min, b2 108 max\nDIN 766  32 × 90  32  90  38.4 min  115 max  990  23  —\nDIN 766  36 × 101  36  101  43.2 min  130 max  1111  29  pitch 101, b1 47 min, b2 130 max\nDIN 766  40 × 112  40  112  48 min  144 max  1232  35  —\nDIN 766  42 × 118  42  118  50 min  151 max  1298  40  pitch 118, b1 54.5 min, b2 151 max\nDIN 766  33 × 92  33  92  not in that table  not in that table  —  —  SCIC only: pitch 92, b1 43 min, b2 119 max\nDIN 766  39 × 109  39  109  not in that table  not in that table  —  —  SCIC only: pitch 109, b1 50.5 min, b2 140 max\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  2.5 × inside length 24  2.5  inside length 24 ± 1.2  4.5 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 short link (RS)  2.5 × inside length 14  2.5  inside length 14 ± 0.7  4.5 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  3 × inside length 26  3  inside length 26 ± 1.3  5.4 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 medium link (RS)  3 × inside length 21  3  inside length 21 ± 1.1  5.4 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 short link (RS)  3 × inside length 16  3  inside length 16 ± 0.8  5.4 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  4 × inside length 32  4  inside length 32 ± 1.6  7.2 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 short link (RS)  4 × inside length 19  4  inside length 19 ± 1.0  7.2 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  5 × inside length 35  5  inside length 35 ± 1.8  9.0 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 short link (RS)  5 × inside length 21  5  inside length 21 ± 1.1  9.0 min  —  —  —  Kramp Ø5 × 21 short link: inner length 21 (agrees), inner width 10, outer width 20, outer length 31\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  6 × inside length 42  6  inside length 42 ± 2.1  10.8 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 short link (RS)  6 × inside length 24  6  inside length 24 ± 1.2  10.8 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  6.5 × inside length 36  6.5  inside length 36 ± 2.4  12.0 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685 long link (RS)  7 × inside length 49  7  inside length 49 ± 2.5  12.6 min  —  —  —  —\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  2×14  2  step 14  —  width B 8  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  3×16  3  step 16  —  width B 11  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  4×19  4  step 19  —  width B 15  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  5×21  5  step 21  —  width B 19  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  6×24  6  step 24  —  width B 22  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  7×28  7  step 28  —  width B 27  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  8×32  8  step 32  —  width B 32  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  10×40  10  step 40  —  width B 40  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\nDIN 5685A (Load-Tech, as printed)  12×48  12  step 48  —  width B 48  —  —  weights and loads on the page left out\n\nFiles elsewhere (not hosted by Xem Studio;
