detachable square link chain
 

Might be a long shot, but...
I am looking for a source of this chain, as can be seen each link is 1" by 1 and 3/8ths, It was used by Ransomes in the first 2 or 3 decades of the last century (in this case c1910) and presumably by other manufacturers on a variety of impliments, I believe bale elevators were a common application
I have been looking around online and I have found some (mostly usa) suppliers of slightly similar chain, but it is mostly made out of sheet steel and looks very different, as well as being of a different size
does anyone have any or know where I can aquire this chain?
I have 2 machines missing this chain, 1 needs about 10 foot, and the other 13 foot

I could be wrong, but I think it is a standard size. It is used very commonly on reaper binders. My Albion/Harris McGreggor has about 9ft of it, and my friends International and Massey Harris also have plenty of it. I do have some short pieces as spare links, as we do have them split occasionally (one in 2014 harvest). Also, some manufacturers used to use it as bed chain in their rear discharge muck spreaders. I'm sure it is still available.

I know it's a way from you, but give "Bearing Man" Oswestry a try. Speak to Mark. He knows his stuff! I go there a lot and he's got me out of a few awkward places. Their number 01691 670880.
