I found some more info on #45 and #55 steel detachable chains. Both are
the
same pitch and run on the same sprockets. 55 appears to be a HD version
of
45 as it is made of .125" thick steel where 45 is only .105" thick. The
55
chain is also 1/16" wider than 45 which is in the width of the sidebars.
There a few other minor variations on some non-critical dimensions but
for
most applications the 55 can replace the 45 with no problems. The 45
chain
is now obsolete with all the manufacturers that I deal with at work.
