Timing Chain 52 Link Single Row Rolon

Timing Chain for MGB 1972 to 1980 with single row chain and Austin Healey Sprite 948 to 1098 and Midget 948 to 1098 engines. Cross Ref.# 3H2127, 3SR52, 460-595, TC1352

The advantages of the Rolon chain is they are designed and manufactured to exacting standards employing leading edge technology, material selection, tooling, heat treatment and manufacturing methods.

Heat treatment: In Rolon chain, pins and bushes are provided with optimum surface hardness through skilled use of heat treatment for long durability.

Shot peened parts: All plates and rollers are shot peened to improve fatigue life. Shot peening induces compressive forces in these parts and therefore offers high resistance against fatigue and impact loading.

Preloading of the chain: Rolon chain is preloaded in special fixtures. This enhances resistance against initial elongation and fatigue. All chains are subject to precise length control.

Greater fatigue and tensile strength: the wider waist of Rolon link plates, combined with optimum press fitted bushes and pins, ensures greater fatigue strength.

Longer wear life: Wear life also depends upon the perfect roundness of the cylindrical parts like pins and bushes. Rolon bushings are curl formed from in-house manufactured specially processed steel to achieve complete round shape with uniform wall thickness. Pins are produced in special purpose machines and processed suitably to achieve greater roundnes.

The Rolon timing chain offer the advantages of the higher priced timing chains but at a very competetive price.
