Worn chain on one of our Universal 1 presses

Hello,
We need to replace a worn chain on one of our UNIVERSAL 1, #21175, 1961
The chain has stretched and is now rattling along the inner shelf of the press.
I have used shims in the motor mount in the past to take up some of the slack, but I would like to find a source for a replacement chain.
Do you know the specs for the chain?

Thank you,
Gunars

The Vandercook part number for the chain is X-14683. NA Graphics may have a replacement. If not, Most Vandercook drive chains have 0.500″ pitch and 0.250″ roller width and may be stamped with “41” the ANSI (American National Standards Institute) number. This information can be used to source a new chain.
