Removing chain links is a straightforward process that can be completed with a few simple tools. Whether you’re repairing a broken chain or simply want to adjust the length, knowing how to take chain links out is a valuable skill.
Chain links are typically held together by a pin or cotter pin. To remove a chain link, you’ll need to use a pair of pliers or a chain tool to remove the pin. Once the pin is removed, you can simply separate the chain links. If the chain has a master link, you can simply open the link to remove or add chain links as needed.
