KMC recommends only using the missing link once...but many report to use them repeatedly. Chain failures can be catastrophic. I like the strength of KMC chains and believe the missing link is a very reliable connection which makes servicing the chain pretty simple. I use the links 2X's and then replace.

Was/is your Missing Link "loose". I mean, I can undo mine with one hand, actually two fingers w/o much trying. Is is supposed to be tighter than it is???
