Description
- Mafell’s 17mm slot mortising chain for the LS 103Ec has 43 links and produces a mortise ~11/16″ wide by 1-15/16″ long by 11-13/16″ deep (17mm x 50mm x 285mm)
- In theory a 16mm chain could work for 5/8″ plates, but in practice this 17mm chain works better
- 8mm Chain or 11mm Chain SG 230 slotting guide users can convert to this 17mm size by ordering a 12-17mm Chain Bar and 12-17mm Sprocket
