Disclosure to Promote the Right To Information

Whereas the Parliament of India has set out to provide a practical regime of right to
information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities,
in order to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority,
and whereas the attached publication of the Bureau of Indian Standards is of particular interest
to the public, particularly disadvantaged communities and those engaged in the pursuit of
education and knowledge, the attached public safety standard is made available to promote the
timely dissemination of this information in an accurate manner to the public.

SHORT PITCH TRANSMISSION PRECISION
ROLLER CHAINS AND CHAIN WHEELS
( Second Revision )
NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard ( Second Revision ) which is identical with IS0 606 : 1982 ‘Short pitch
transmission precision roller chains and chain wheels’, issued by the International Organization
for Standardization ( IS0 ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on therecommen-
dation of the Transmission Devices Sectional Committee ( LMD 10 ) and approval of the Light
Mechanical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1964. It was revised in 1975 taking assistance from
IS0 606 : 1982. This second revision has been harmonised with IS0 606 : 1982.
In the adopted standard certain terminology and conventions are, however, not identical to
those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they
should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.
b) Comma ( i ) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current
practice is to use point ( . ) as the decimal marker.
In this adopted standard, reference appears to certain International Standards for which
Indian Standards also exist. The corresponding Indian Standards which are to be substituted
in their place are listed below along with their degree of equivalence for the editions indicated:

Pitch circle diameters

The following table gives correct pitch circle diameters for wheels to suit a chain of unit pitch (for example 1 in, 1 mm). The pitch
circle diameters for wheels to suit a chain of any other pitch are directly proportional to the pitch of the chain.
