Abstract: A power transmission chain (1) includes a plurality of link plates (2, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, 2H, 2J) aligned along the chain travel direction (X1) and a plurality of connection members (50, 3) connecting these link plates (2, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, 2H, 2J) to each other. When the link plates (2, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, 2H, 2J) are viewed along the chain width direction (W1), the link plates (2, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, 2H, 2J) each include discrimination portion (22, 22A, 22B, 22C, 22D, 22E, 22F, 22G, 22H, 22J, 22K) for discriminating the chain travel direction (X1).
