MSR Class Bushed Steel Roller Chain - 81X, 81XH, 81XHH

Our MSR (Manure Spreader Roller) class bushed steel roller chain is specifically engineered for agricultural manure spreader applications. Available in 81X, 81XH, and 81XHH configurations, this specialized chain provides the perfect balance of strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness for spreader floor, beater, and drive systems.

Premium Features & Construction

• Bushed Design: Steel bushings provide wear resistance and proper roller support while maintaining cost-effectiveness for agricultural applications
• Heat-Treated Components: Pins, bushings, and plates undergo heat treatment for enhanced strength and extended service life
• Agricultural-Grade Steel: Robust construction designed to handle the demanding loads and harsh conditions of manure spreading operations
• Corrosion-Resistant Treatment: Protective coatings help resist rust and corrosion from exposure to moisture and corrosive materials
• Pre-Stretched: Factory pre-stretching minimizes elongation during operation, reducing maintenance and adjustment requirements
• Industry Standard: MSR class specifications ensure compatibility with standard manure spreader equipment and sprockets

MSR Chain Sizes - 81X, 81XH, 81XHH

We carry the complete range of MSR class bushed roller chain configurations for agricultural equipment:

• 81X Chain: Standard MSR class chain with 2.609-inch pitch, ideal for general manure spreader floor and conveyor applications
• 81XH Chain: Heavy-duty version with thicker plates and larger pins for increased load capacity in demanding spreader applications
• 81XHH Chain: Extra heavy-duty construction with maximum strength components for the most severe manure spreader and agricultural conveyor applications

The progression from 81X to 81XH to 81XHH provides increasing strength and load capacity, allowing you to select the right chain for your specific equipment and operating conditions.

Applications

MSR class chain is the industry standard for manure spreader floor chains, beater drive chains, and conveyor systems in agricultural equipment. The bushed construction provides reliable performance in the demanding environment of manure handling—abrasive materials, moisture exposure, shock loads, and continuous operation during spreading seasons.

Bushed Construction Advantages

MSR bushed chain offers an excellent balance of performance and value. The steel bushings provide proper support for the rollers while keeping costs reasonable for agricultural applications. This makes it ideal for manure spreaders where reliability matters but extreme precision isn't required.

Regular inspection and timely replacement of worn chain prevents costly breakdowns during critical spreading seasons. Stock spare chain and connecting links to minimize downtime when repairs are needed.

Available in 81X, 81XH, and 81XHH configurations to match your specific manure spreader model, load requirements, and application demands.
