Hi there :P i already killed 2 bearings from chain linked chucks.
So my question is does anyone know some good chain links that i can buy on the web that doesn't fly apart easily. :thumb: :chuck:

The best I've known as from my experience is the chain linked T-swivel. it last almost a year for me. I've bought mine in a bookstore(unbelievably) for a cheap price.

I killed 2 bearings both in a week time and i'm not even doing crazy stuff with it and i'm oiling them.

normal ballbearing chain links(dazzle chux) has a breakable bearings that wears out by time
T-Swivel (example) doesn't have a bearing.. but a rounded "T" metal covered by a "U" (the metal itself is thick)

most of the T-swivel has a long chain.. this is the easiest way(and a closeup example)

U-swivel, in otherhand, is rare.. I bought my T-swivel in a bookstore's sports section lol. it cost here $ 3.25 USD converted from peso (PHP), so cheap, that I bought 3 of them ^^
