Abstract: A linkage wear prevention device for preventing or fixing wear in a linkage device such as a chain. The linkage wear prevention device generally includes a clip device having a hollow main body with a channel extending therethrough. The clip device is initially C-shaped, with a slot defined by a first end and a second end. The first and second ends each include projections and indentations which act to fuse together the ends of the clip device. When so fused together, the clip device will take on an O-shaped structure which fully encloses around a damaged portion of a linkage.
