Genie 111342.0687.S Roller Chain, #41 x 687P (12')
The Genie 111342.0687.S is an ANSI #41 roller chain with 687P (12 ft) for use on Genie GCL-GT and RHX commercial trolley-style door operators. At a standard #41 pitch of 0.500 in per link, this chain delivers reliable power transmission in light-to-medium duty commercial door applications. It is a direct OEM replacement part for the Genie 111342.0687.S and is sold as individual chain length (each). Proper chain length selection is critical - verify the door height matches the pitch count before ordering. The 111342 series spans door heights from 10 ft (591P) through 20 ft (1071P).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long is the 111342.0687.S roller chain and why is it longer than 12 ft?
A: This chain is 687 pitches long. At the standard #41 ANSI pitch of 0.500 in per pitch, the total chain length is 343.5 in (approx 28.625 ft). The chain is sized and configured for use on 12-ft commercial overhead door installations.
Q: What ANSI chain standard does the 111342.0687.S conform to?
A: This chain conforms to ANSI #41 standards, which specifies a 0.500 in pitch, 0.306 in roller diameter, and 0.141 in roller width. It is a single-strand roller chain designed for light-to-medium duty commercial door operator drive systems.
Q: What other door height variants are available in the Genie 111342 series?
A: The 111342 series spans door heights from 10 ft (591P) through 20 ft (1071P). The 0687.S suffix designates the 687-pitch variant configured for 12-ft door height applications. Always confirm your door height before ordering to select the correct pitch count.
Q: What does the '.S' suffix in the part number 111342.0687.S indicate?
A: The S suffix in 111342.0687.S typically denotes a specific cut or configured length variant within the 111342 series, distinguishing it from other format or loop configurations. Verify with Genie or your distributor if an alternate format is needed for your specific operator model.
Q: How do I know when it is time to replace the roller chain on my Genie commercial door operator?
A: Replace the chain if you observe elongation beyond 3% of nominal pitch length (measurable with a chain wear gauge), visible corrosion, cracked or damaged side plates, stiff or binding links, or if the chain skips on the sprocket during operation. Regular lubrication extends service life significantly.
