M5 Pisco Fitting for 1/4 inch press-in tube, POC1/4-M5

This Inline Chain Tensioner for #35 series roller chain is perfect to adjust the desired tension in a long run of chain on mechanisms such as elevators and arms. This is ideal where there is at least a ~3" section of chain that never passes over a sprocket in a given mechanism. Pair this with two #35 Master Links and integrate this to your robot for an easy-to-use chain tension solution!

The design of this product was inspired by Misumi's Chain Turnbuckles. This product has been improved to be compatible with imperial-sized wrenches.

The Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) is a DC to DC convertor that is capable of both boost and buck voltage regulation. The device features two independent SEPIC (Single Ended Primary-inductor Converter) regulators allowing the input voltage to be above or below the desired output voltage. There are two regulators (one 5V and one 12V) each with two current limiting PTC’s (500mA and 2A). Reverse polarity protection is included.

The VRM has been used in the 2015-2021 FIRST Robotics Competition Kit of Parts.  As of Sept 10, 2020 according to FIRST blog these will continue to remain competition legal in future years.
