Are all crabapple tree species pollinators for apple trees?
I was going to buy some chestnut crab's but only if they are a pollinator.

All apples are a pollinator, it depends on what else you have planted. Don't be afraid of chestnut crabs, they are ranked as one of the best crabs for human consumption. I have a bunch of them but no fruit yet.
 
They will in theory be a pollinator as long as their bloom time coincides with the bloom time of the tree you want to pollinate.
