Can you guys check out this chain?
http://tsubakimoto.com/products/chain/conveyor_chain/bearing_bush_chain.html
It uses actual needle bearings between the pin and the roller instead of bushing. So I'm guessing this chain would be a lot more longer lasting. But since it's not very widely used, I'm guessing it costs significantly more to produce. It seems it's only used on conveying applications where precise displacement is important.
Compared to a regular chain bushed chain, how much more costly will this "needle bearing chain" be in terms manufacturing cost? I'm guessing it's very expensive since it's not widely used, like the silent chain.
Thanks for the help.
