Re: [TANKS] chain / sprockets

Hmm...  now that I've actually recieved my shipment of 25 chain, I'm having doubts about using them since they're a lot smaller than I thought they would be.  Anyone else think its a bad idea to use them with a EVW drive system and the torque that they put out?

I think most are using 35...  I'm getting 25 myself, so I'll let you know how they work out.  Was looking for 35, but didn't find any 35 sprockets to mount on my motors.

Don't believe anyone is running any chain bigger than 35.

anyway, they come with 11 tooth sprockets for #25 chain. I am guessing tht 25 chain is too small for tank duty, so I am going to wait for them to arrive before I decide apon the new sprockets and chain.

 

Now, what is a good, strong chain to go with? should I go with something like 35? 40? 50?
