A chain with mutually connected chain links (1, 2) each comprising a back portion and two parallel wall portions protruding substantially perpendicularly therefrom, in which wall portions corresponding rivet holes have been provided in each of the two and members of the chain link, wherein the chain links (1, 2) are connected with one another by means of an end member of a chain link with a comparatively narrow (2) back portion which is inserted into an end member of a neighbouring chain link with a comparatively broad back portion (1) such that the rivet holes (1c, 2c) in the parallel wall portions of the two end members (1a, 1b,2a-2b) are positioned opposite one another for engaging a river (3) or a shaft member. By use of rivets or shaft members of such a length that the rivet (3) may be axially retained by deformation of areas of said wall portions (1a-1b) around the rivet holes (1c) from the exterior side for reducing the clear opening of the rivet holes, a chain is produced by use of less material and at subsequently reduced costs relative to chains hitherto known. |
