NICE / APOLLO MX4560, Chain Kit, #40, Corrosion Resistant, 30 ft
The NICE HySecurity MX4560 is a #40 corrosion-resistant chain kit commonly referenced as a 30 ft replacement chain package. It is used on compatible slide gate and chain-drive applications where the operator requires #40 chain and the site benefits from a corrosion-resistant chain finish. In the field, chain replacement is usually considered when the chain is rusted, stretched, kinked, missing rollers, jumping on the sprocket, or no longer holds proper tension through the gate travel.
Chain problems are often caused by more than the chain itself. A sagging gate, worn rollers, misaligned chain brackets, hooked sprocket teeth, or a poor chain path can quickly damage a new chain. For that reason, the MX4560 should be ordered only after confirming the chain size and inspecting the complete drive path.
Compatible With
Commonly associated with compatible Nice HySecurity and Nice Apollo chain-drive gate operator applications that specify a #40 corrosion-resistant 30 ft chain kit. Public listings confirm the MX4560 chain kit description but do not provide a universal operator list. Verify the installed operator parts diagram, sprocket size, required chain length, and master link style before ordering.

Technician Note
Replacing chain without correcting worn sprockets, bad rollers, or poor alignment can lead to noise, chain jumping, premature wear, and operator strain.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the operator requires #40 chain.
- Measure the needed chain length and compare with the 30 ft kit reference.
- Inspect sprockets for hooked or worn teeth.
- Check chain brackets, idlers, rollers, and gate alignment.
- Do not substitute for #25 or #50 chain systems.
Professional Advisory
After chain installation, set tension correctly and test the full travel. A chain that is too tight can damage bearings and sprockets; a loose chain can jump or bind.
Product Questions and Answers
What chain size is MX4560?
MX4560 is commonly listed as a #40 corrosion-resistant chain kit with a 30 ft chain length.
Is this for every slide gate operator?
No. It should be used only where the operator parts diagram or chain requirements call for this #40 30 ft corrosion-resistant kit.
Can the chain be shortened?
Gate chain can often be sized to the installation, but the finished chain length, master links, and tension must match the operator setup.
What should be checked when replacing chain?
Inspect sprockets, chain brackets, rollers, gate alignment, tension, and corrosion before replacing chain only.
Both are #40 chain-related references, but they should not be assumed identical unless the length, coating, included links, and parts diagram match.
