Taya Tb-980 3/32" Chain

Taya TB-980 3/32" Chain

Product Overview

The Taya TB-980 is a high-strength 3/32" chain engineered for BMX, fixed-gear, and single-speed applications where durability and reliability are critical. Featuring chamfered inner and outer plates, teflon coating, and enlarged plate geometry, it delivers quiet operation and extended lifespan under demanding riding conditions.

Key Features

• High-Tension Strength — Designed to withstand the power demands of BMX riding, fixed-gear acceleration, and single-speed drivetrain stress without premature failure
• Enlarged Outer Plate — Increased plate dimensions improve load distribution and resist chain stretch, extending component lifespan under sustained high-power output
• Chamfered Outer Plate — Angled edges reduce friction between outer plates and sprockets, minimizing noise generation and improving shifting smoothness
• Chamfered Inner Plate — Interior plate beveling reduces pin friction and wear, improving chain efficiency and reducing mechanical noise during operation
• Super Length Inner Chamfer — Extended chamfer profile optimizes inner plate geometry for maximum friction reduction and durability
• Sub Punched Pin — Precision pin design improves bearing surface contact and reduces pin stress concentration, extending chain lifespan
• Teflon Coating — Low-friction surface treatment reduces wear, improves corrosion resistance, and requires less frequent maintenance
• Noiseless Operation — Combined chamfer design eliminates chain rattle and noise typical of standard chains

Technical Specifications

• Chain Size: 3/32" (narrow, single-speed compatible)
• Pin Pitch: 1/2" (standard BMX/single-speed)
• Link Count: 116 links
• Chain Type: Classic design for single-speed and fixed-gear applications
• Coating: Teflon for reduced friction and corrosion resistance
• Plate Design: Enlarged with dual chamfer geometry (inner and outer)
• Pin Style: Sub-punched for optimized bearing contact

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

Compatible with 3/32" single-speed and fixed-gear drivetrains including BMX setups, fixies, and exercise bikes. Works with standard 1/2" pitch sprockets and chainrings. The 116-link configuration suits standard BMX and cruiser frame geometries. Ideal for riders seeking durable, quiet-running chains for single-speed reliability, BMX power transfer, or fixed-gear commuting. Suits applications prioritizing strength and extended maintenance intervals over lightweight construction. Recommended for both street and track use where high tension and consistent performance are priorities.
