Abstract: We present two equivalent five-dimensional actions for six-dimensional $(N,0)$ $N=1,2$ supersymmetric theories of a self-dual tensor whose one spatial dimension is compactified on a circle. The Kaluza-Klein tower consists of a massless vector and an infinite number of massive self-dual tensor multiplets living in five dimensions. The self-duality follows from the equation of motion. Both actions are quadratic in field variables without any auxiliary field. When lifted back to six dimensions, one of them gives a supersymmetric extension of the bosonic formulation for the chiral two-form tensor by Perry and Schwarz.
