Description
Transform your ATV or UTV's power delivery with the VORTEX CK2266 Performance Chain & Sprocket Kit, engineered for extreme durability and precision. This premium upgrade combines X-Ring sealed chain technology with hardened steel sprockets to deliver exceptional torque transfer, reduced chain slack, and long-lasting performance in the harshest off-road conditions.
Key Features
- 520 X-Ring Sealed Chain: Reinforced steel links and X-Ring sealing prevent lubricant leakage, ensuring consistent performance through thousands of miles of rugged terrain.
- Hardened Steel Sprockets: 14T front sprocket (521 steel) and 42T rear sprocket (1045 high-carbon steel) provide unmatched strength and wear resistance for high-torque applications.
- Universal Fit: Compatible with most 450-500cc ATV/UTV engines, featuring adjustable mounting for diverse frame configurations.
- Lightweight Design: Precision-machined components reduce rotational mass for quicker acceleration and smoother power delivery.

Installation Guide
Tools Required
- chain breaker tool
- socket set
- torque wrench
- master link pliers
Pro Tips
- Use chain lube immediately after install
- Check alignment with straight edge on swingarm
- Break in chain by varying RPMs first 100 miles
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Incorrect chain tension adjustment
- Not cleaning old sprockets before install
- Over-torquing sprocket bolts
Comparison vs Stock/OEM
Stock chains are often 520 non-sealed with fewer teeth for lower gearing; Vortex offers X-ring sealing and optimized gearing (14/42 vs stock 14/38-40)
Improvements
- 15-20% torque increase
- 3x longer chain life
- Reduced weight and friction
- Better heat dissipation
Considerations
- Lower top speed due to taller gearing
