I'm trying to determine which KMC Missing link I should be using on Shimano HG94 and HG95 chains. Should I be buying 10Speed 5.88mm or 5.9mm, or does 0.02mm not make any difference?
The only difference I can glean from their website is that 5.9mm is 'NON re-usable' and is universal for Shimano and Campagnolo, but why the difference in size?
The only other 10Speed 5.9mm, which is re-usable, is for Campagnolo chains.

    Missing Link 10 Silver Shimano standard. I have used it on Shimano, Wipperman, KMC and SRAM chains.

  • I've just had a very quick reply from KMC and I quote:

    "Thanks for your interest in our products!
    You need our 10 speed ML; the CL559R, this is for all 10 speed chains with a pin length off 5,88mm."


    I presume the HG94/95 chains both have pins of 5.88mm in width?
