Description
Transform your ATV or UTV's performance with VORTEX's CK5127 Performance Links Chain & Sprocket Kit. This high-torque upgrade features a 520 X-Ring sealed chain and precision-machined 1042 alloy steel sprockets (14T front, 42T rear) designed to deliver exceptional power transfer, reduced friction, and long-lasting durability for extreme off-road conditions.
Key Features
- 520 X-Ring Sealed Chain: Case-hardened carbon alloy steel construction with X-ring sealing technology ensures maximum strength, corrosion resistance, and extended chain life under high-torque demands.
- 1042 Alloy Steel Sprockets: CNC-machined front (14 teeth) and rear (42 teeth) sprockets with optimized tooth geometry for smooth, quiet operation and improved gear engagement across all terrains.
- Universal Fitment: Compatible with most 450-500cc ATV/UTV engines, featuring adjustable mounting options for custom installation flexibility.
- Lightweight Durability: At just 5.8 lbs, this kit combines reinforced components with lightweight materials for balanced performance without compromising strength.
Why Choose This Product
Engineered for riders who demand peak performance, this kit reduces maintenance intervals and costly repairs through its durable construction and precision engineering. The reduced friction and enhanced power transfer deliver faster acceleration and responsive throttle control, while the X-ring sealed chain resists dirt ingress for consistent performance in harsh environments. Perfect for trailblazers tackling rocky trails, muddy terrain, or high-speed desert runs.
