Subject: Re: US made vs. import roller chain



SW Minnesota, Lyon County
I use the China "crap" and have no problem. I tried some Diamond brand just out of curiosity and it didn't seem to be any better. Keep chain lube on them and you will be fine I think unless there are worse China brands than others. With the cost difference, I can put on 4 China chains to one US chain. Sure it's added maintenance if it comes to having to replace it more often, but I don't think US chain will last 4 times as long in my experience. I think you are just paying for added labor costs.
