For a 520 chain, consider: Pin diameter - they vary - although 5.2mm is quite common Pin length - an O or X ring chain is wider than a basic chain Side plate thickness also varies Pitch and roller diameter are pretty standard though. See here Greg

What brand is it? The maker's name is probably stamped on the sideplates. Greg
