Roll Ring chain tensioner in a golf cart

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I solved the problem of putting in a complex spring loaded chain tensioner by using a simple Roll Ring device. The best thing is it works bi-directional where as a spring loaded tensioner will not. So it works in Reverse as well as it does in Forward. Its also very easy to install and does not fall out. Extends chain life too! link to company:

    I recently came across roll ring due to my need for a chain tensioner for a bike engined car application. This roll ring in theory and practice is great. I'll order mine from Europe. Also just to help you out, those sprocket "appendages" (hilarious by the way) are called teeth. Hope that helps. Have a nice day ☺️

    So are these custom made or can one actually find a typical production one to fit & work?

    I think it was $62 with free shipping, its a little steep but it takes zero time to install and it works going backwards or forward. Its very quiet too. I haul over 500 lbs of corn out to my deer feeders with my golf cart. Its a rough trail. It has never popped out with the extreme amount of suspension travel I subject the golf cart to. I thought it was well worth the price.

    @@petecase5507 www.roll-ring.com/cad-chain-tensioner-price-list/?lang=en#tab-21a1ff8f-db80-0 I'm not sure if the link I put up will be useful but I purchased it from a distributor in England for the equivalent of $62 dollars. The link is a price list I found on Roll-Ring's website which says it costs 30 euros or so. I believe right now the Euro and Dollar are equal in value. I found the distributor by requesting info from Roll-Ring. There were just a few US based distributors and they were higher priced. I kept searching around until I found one in England. I can't for the life of me find the link I used.
