| 520/530 Chain Identification As this question seems to come up frequently, here is a diagram that can be used to distinguish 520 and 530 drive chains.
By using a scale or caliper to measure the roller width between the inside plates, they can be easily identified. Nominal Dimensions Are:
520 = 1/4" - (0.25") - [6.35mm]
530 = 3/8" - (0.38") - [9.52mm]
*Both chains are standard #50 pitch of 5/8" - (0.625") - [15.88mm]
