    摘要: A chain assembly system can include an inner chain link and an outer chain link. The inner chain link and the outer chain link can define a pair of bores. The chain assembly system can include a pin including a head end that defines a head, and a thread end opposite the head end having threads. The chain assembly system can include a nut configured to threadingly engage the threads of the thread end of the pin and an axial stop that is configured to block further advancement of the nut along the thread end of the pin towards the head end of the pin when the pin contacts the axial stop.

    摘要: A method of repairing a chain can include aligning a bore of an outer chain link with a bore of an inner chain link, inserting a pin through the aligned bores, the pin having a thread end opposite a head end, engaging a multi-jackbolt tensioner with the thread end of the pin, the multi-jackbolt tensioner having a plurality of fasteners, advancing each of the plurality of fasteners to press on the outer chain link, and forming an interference fit between the pin and the outer chain link at the bore of the outer chain link from the advancing of the fasteners.
