High-Quality The 428H*102L motorcycle chain for CG125 Manufacturers, Exporters

The 428H*102L motorcycle chain is a heavy-duty drivetrain core, engineered with the industry-standard 428H heavy-duty pitch and 102-link length. It delivers exceptional torque bearing, wear resistance, and direct fit for mid-displacement motorcycles.

Product Description

Product Overview
The 428H*102L is a high-performance roller chain tailored for motorcycle drivetrains, where reliable power transfer between engine and wheels is critical. Its "428H" code refers to the universal heavy-duty (H) 428-series pitch (12.7mm/0.5 inch)—optimized for enhanced tensile strength to handle high torque from mid-displacement engines. The "102L" denotes a 102-link length, calibrated to match OEM specs of 125–400cc motorcycles, eliminating the need for link cutting during installation.
Key Advantages
1. High Torque Endurance

428H heavy-duty design boosts tensile strength, easily handling torque loads from 125–400cc engines without stretching or snapping.

2. Long-Lasting Wear Resistance

Heat-treated (HRC 52–56) rollers, pins, and plates minimize abrasion, extending service life by 30% vs. standard 428 chains.

3. All-Condition Protection

Zinc plating or black oxide coating prevents rust and oxidation, adapting to wet, dusty, or humid riding environments.

4. Hassle-Free Installation

102-link length directly fits popular models (e.g., Honda CB300, Yamaha YBR250), enabling quick, tool-friendly replacement.

Applications
1. Mid-Displacement Street Bikes

Fits 125–400cc cruisers, nakeds, and sport bikes (e.g., Kawasaki Ninja 300) as the primary drivetrain chain.

2. Dual-Sport & Dirt Bikes

Used in 150–250cc off-road models (e.g., Suzuki DR-Z250) for reliable power transfer on rough terrain.

3. Light Utility Vehicles

Compatible with 150–350cc ATVs/UTVs for work or recreational off-road use.

4. Custom Motorcycle Builds

Ideal for DIY projects or replacement where 428H pitch and 102-link length are specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q What does the "428H" and "102L" designation mean?

"428H" refers to the heavy-duty (H) 428-series pitch of 12.7mm (0.5 inch), designed for enhanced tensile strength. "102L" indicates that the chain length consists of 102 individual links.

Q Which motorcycles are compatible with this roller chain?

This chain is designed to match the OEM specifications of 125cc to 400cc displacement motorcycles, including popular street bikes, dual-sport and dirt bikes, and light utility vehicles (ATVs/UTVs).

Q Will I need to cut the chain links during installation?

For motorcycles that natively require a 102-link chain (such as the Honda CB300 or Yamaha YBR250), the chain fits directly without any need for link cutting or modifications.

Q What is the typical lifespan of the 428H*102L chain?

Under typical motorcycle operating conditions and with regular lubrication, the chain offers a service life of approximately 15,000 to 25,000 km.

Q How does the chain perform in harsh or wet environments?

The chain features a surface treatment of either zinc plating or black oxide coating, which provides anti-rust and anti-oxidation protection in wet, dusty, or humid riding conditions.

Q What are the construction materials and heat treatment level?

It is manufactured using heat-treated alloy steel (40CrMnMo) with rollers, pins, and plates hardened to HRC 52–56, achieving a minimum tensile strength of 3,800 N.
