Description
When you’re watching windrows of hay pile up behind your Mega Wide Plus baler and that drive chain starts stretching or jumping on the sprockets, you know it’s time for a replacement. A worn chain can turn a smooth baling operation into a headache with missed cycles and uneven bale formation. This 79-pitch Diamond chain assembly gets you back to making tight, consistent bales the way your machine was designed to do.
What You’re Getting
- Pre-assembled 79-pitch chain ready to install—no measuring or cutting required
- Diamond brand quality with carbon steel construction that handles the stress of heavy baling
- Single strand #50 chain with standard link plates designed for your baler’s drive system
- Direct replacement that matches the original specs for smooth operation and proper timing
Built for Heavy-Duty Baling
The Mega Wide Plus series balers from John Deere—the 449, 459, 469, and 569—are workhorses designed to handle big acres and tough conditions. Whether you’re baling first-cutting alfalfa, grass hay, or straw, these machines need reliable power transmission from the drive system to keep the pickup, auger, and compression systems working in perfect sync.
Made to Last
Baler chains take a beating from constant cycling, dust, chaff, and the occasional slug of dirt that comes with the territory. This Diamond chain uses quality carbon steel construction with precise manufacturing that stands up to the demands of commercial hay operations while maintaining proper stretch characteristics throughout the season.
Installation Notes
This chain comes pre-cut to 79 pitches, so installation is straightforward—just remove the old chain and install the new one following your baler’s service manual. Keep some chain lube handy for initial break-in, and check tension after the first few hours of operation.
