O ring chain vs non o ring chain
O ring chain vs non o ring chain-I know that during practice days, oring has longer life time But does it make a difference during competition if you use the non oring? It is a long time since I used a nonoring chain, so I am struggling to remember the mileage comparison Maybe the nonoring chain would last one third the distance of the oring or xring type and probably even less in the presence of much dirt or rain Plus the frequent adjustments And the "stretching" or lengthening of the olderstyle chain leads to rapid wearing
Should you choose an oring ATV chain or a non oring chain?Back to top DGorman Joined Posts 1009 Location London Posted Tue 4 Posts #3 Less drag from a NON Oring chain, but considerable wear The purpose of the O or X ring chains is ease of maintenance The lube stays contained within the rubber rings and all you do is prevent rust and treat the rings On a NON ring chain dirt/dust/mud/small rodents will work themselves between the roller and the
The ORing Chains are the modern drive chains consists of a rubber "O Ring" placed between the chain plates These ORings are fitted in between chain plates to seal the already vacuum filled grease between the rollers and the other internal components of chain This mechanism of ORing type chains make them self lubricated and hence they require less maintenance and have longer Re 530 oring chain widths Reply #9 on , pm My 14 C5's factory supplied oring chain is mm at plate and 22mm at rivets Unsure of what brand came on it, but it seems to be a good chain and has stretched verySearch "" across the entire site Search "" in this forum Search "" in this discussion Advanced Search Cancel Login / Join What's New;
Two styles of chains exist for your riding pleasure A chain with orings and a chain without orings commonly known as a standard chain Standard roller chains have been around forever and also used on bicycles They remain a favorite, for some, powering dirt bikes and ATVs while the somewhat more technically advanced oring version proves a clear winner for others The oring1996 Yamaha FZR600, first and current bike, and loving it RIP Pat Taylor aka iamgumby I'm into women in leather No whip please It's not my style Save Share Oring vs Non Oring Chain Jump to Latest Follow 1 13 of 13 Posts J jakalwarrior Registered Joined 3,6 Posts Discussion Starter
Recently I bought a chain at Cycle Gear I was about half way through the install before I noticed that it was a non oring chain I'm putting it on my dirt bike I am using the standard oring chain sprocktes I know that I will have to oil the chain more often Oiling a chain is something that I don't mind doing oring chains have little orings that help keep everything moving nicely, they are a bit more expensive but they will last longer if your not the type to keep the chains absolutely spotless, the non oring chains tend to rust and seize up at the pivot points if you dont keep up on them, not saying the orings won't but it'll take a bit longerBecause of this, Oring chains have a reputation of lasting anywhere from 15 – 2 times longer than standard, nonOring chains Common criticism of Oring chains has been that the increased friction in the movement of the chain from adding rubber Orings creates more drag and translates less power to the rear wheel While this is true to a
There are two types of chains available the Oring chains and the nonOring ones also referred to as standard chains The standard chain has been around for a long time, while the Oring one is a contemporary and improved version of the former The nonOring chain is standard in bicycles and motorbikes that are used in dirtfilled places Some of the differences between these two are Chain If a non Oring chain will produce a noticeable power gain, I'd love one Then again DID recommends against it, then again a 250r is not exactly a high performance motorcycle It's a souped up weed whacker engine connected to two wheels The two product applications listed for the non oring chain (09 Kawasaki) appear to be a 450 fourstroke dirtbike, and a 500cc Vulcan The non Oring Just bought a 85r that came with a blue chain on it that is a o ring chain Not a big fan of a blue colored chain The guy gave me the old that does not have the o rings does it really matter putting a non o ring chain on a 85 250r
And what are the advantages of each?It's true that an Oring or Xring chain will indeed add some more drag to the equation However, would there be enough drag to notice and affect a race time significantly, well that's more likely in the head of the driver Much like your favorite BrandX oil VS a premium Castrol, the Castrol is likely better for your engine However, if you sit on the seat of two different Triumphs with~~~~~ Michael J Tobler motorcyclist, surfer, # Black holes result skydiver, and author "Inside Linux", # when God divides the "C HowTo",

Which chains are better? 5/5/09 655 PM My new RMZ 450 came with an oring DID chain Impressed with how little it has stretched, it has only needed one adjustment in the 8 hrs it has on it, but the outside of the links seems to have wore down pretty flat A non oring would usually last me almost as long as this before it was whipped, but the links didn't flattenMeaning can I just throw the chain in WD40, go do other things and come back in an hour?
So for bigger and more powerful bikes, non O Ring chains have been very much superseded by O Ring and X Ring chains These position a sealing ring between the inner and outer chain plates Before riveting in the factory, the internal parts of the chain are filled with chain grease by vacuum The sealing rings then have two purposes to keep the internal lubrication in, Oring chain Has rubber orings to keep dirt out and lube in Advantage lasts longer than a standard chain and doesn't require lube as often Disadvantage more expensive and more power train loss than a standard chain Xring chain Another type of oring chain but has a slightly more complex rubber grommet design that creates less friction losses compared to a standard oring chain O ring chains dont need wax but just keep the orings slippery, soft and sealing the pre lube inside the links R Robenstein Joined Messages 5,653 Location Central IA #3 Non O Ring chains are really yesterday's technology They allow for intrusion of abrasives into the links and will wear very quickly if exposed to dusty or dirty environments
A ochain, you are lubing the *** orings, not the chain They in turn seal in the factory lube If you use a petrolem product like WD40 it will rot the orings and break the seal From that time on you are lubing the chain and might as well not have a oring chain I have found Honda Lube for Oring chains to work well I'm sure there areJump to Latest Follow 1 7 of 7 Posts S samuraikitty Registered Joined 111 Posts Discussion Starter #1In this video John tells you why an oring chain is a much bet

The standard nonsealed (O or X ring) chains need to be removed, cleaned and relubed after use where they get dirty There is nothing to seal the dirt out of the high wear pin area The wear on the pins is what is interpreted as "stretch", as the round pins wear the chain will lengthen and wear the sprockets Dirt in the pins will accelerate the wearFor Racing Anybody have some solid facts?

The oring chain is a specialized type of roller chain used in the transmission of mechanical power from one sprocket to another Construction The oring chain is named for the rubber orings built into the space between the outside link plate and the inside roller link plates Chain manufacturers began to include this feature in 1971 after the application was invented by Joseph Montano whileThis would be for racing and non street use!! just the diff between the two because i killed my non oring chain and sprockets 3 months, normally get a full season with oring Click to expand Save Share Reply mixxer Lord of Combustion Joined 14,065 Posts #8 i put dyno test results on the forums quite a few years ago back to back testing with new chains showed exactly ZERO
i wont reccomend a non oring chain to anyone cause they suck imo i always use oring chain and RK chain only best you can buy also when i take a link out of my chain my sprockets are fine i have had my RK chain for about 2 years and have only taken 1 link out and never had sprocket problems '01 400EX R4 Complete System, K&N Air FIlter, K&N Jet Kit Save The non oring chain may even last longer because it is easier to get lube into the high wear points that are otherwise sealed off by orings It's been tested time and again, oring friction is negligible I don't see it as a reason to run or not run oring chains I'm guessing that the slightly higher weight of an 0ring chain will take more power to run than the orings my nonoring cost me alot of money, use to run o ring found nono stretched alot so much had to adjust chain every ride Even had to take a link out takes a little bit to get use to Forgot about it one time went riding ,had it pinned thru a burn and the chain come off damm thing jammed up and locked up the tranny so hard broke a tooth off in tranny, did'nt know until 1 hour
The Oring chain operates the same as a roller chain except for in a couple of very significant areas First, the oring chain consists of oshaped rubber fittings (orings) placed in between each link of the chain These fittings are filled with a manufacturerinstalled lubricating grease that forms a protective barrier over the entire chain On the side note, is cleaning nonoring chain easier than oring since you don't have to worry about the rubber?ORing Roller Chain Please Note 40ORing comes with straight sidebars – Synthetic rubber Orings seal in lubricant within the bearing area of the chain – Ideal for applications where keeping dirt and other contaminants out of the bearing area is critical – Commonly used where continuous relubrication is not possible or difficult
