Description

When you’re baling hay and that pickup drive chain breaks or starts slipping, you’re looking at lost time and possibly damaged crop sitting in the windrow. This #50 chain is the simple fix that gets you back to work fast. With 72 links and a connector already included, it’s cut to fit and ready to install so you can get back to gathering that hay before weather threatens.

What You’re Getting

Pre-cut #50 roller chain with exactly 72 links for proper fit
5/8″ pitch spacing that matches your baler’s drive system perfectly
Includes connector link for easy installation without special tools
Standard single-strand design that handles the power and speed of pickup drives

Built for Baler Work

This chain fits John Deere balers including models 430, 435, 530, 535, 385, 466, and 566 where pickup drive chains take constant abuse from dirt, debris, and the demanding cycle of gathering hay from windrows. Whether you’re running an older square baler with chain-driven systems or equipment where you need to remove chain sections for cleaning, this replacement handles the job reliably.

Made to Last

Farm chains take a beating from dust, moisture, and constant loading, so this carbon steel construction is built to match the strength of your original equipment without becoming the weak point that fails when you’re trying to get hay in before the rain.

Installation Notes

The precut design means no measuring or cutting—just remove the old chain and install the new one. Clean out any accumulated dirt from the drive housing while you’ve got it apart, and the connector link makes joining the ends simple with proper tension keeping everything running smoothly.
