1. I've used KMC, Wipperman/Connex, and SRAM masterlinks and chains and
have had no problems with any of them, though I change my chains at 2000
miles because they are worn out or close to it at that point.
2. The Connex had the easiest-to-use masterlink, the KMC the worst, but
I've never had prob
9 and 10 speed work only with those chains. 1-8 works with a different
chain/link.
Sram links do *not* work on Shimano chains, but KMC links will work on
Shimano an obviously KMC. I don't know any more than that.
Glad the lead helped! I need to get some myself, and probably some MSOs!

OK, I gather that a master link for 6-7-8 speed chains, such as this one,
won't work on a 9-speed chain:

But will master links of the proper size at least work across brands such
as KMC and SRAM?

Does a master link from, say, KMC work with a chain from, say, Shimano or
SRAM? And will a master link that works on an 8-speed chain also work on a
9-speed chain? I ask because I have a 9-speed SRAM chain on my Sam and a
KMC 8-speed chain on my old Miyata mountain bike. Would love to buy a few

I have never had good luck with Sram chains and have found their master
links to be particularly problematic. Some years ago I switched to
Wipperman 908 chains and have always gotten good shifting, long life and
reliability from them. Their master links are a different design and are
reliable
I love the way the master links make chain removal & installation so easy,
but am also leery about things that come apart that easily. So I carry a
spare master link with me. I can think of 2 instances where riding
companions have had master link problems, and having a spare saved the
ride.
