P100 conveyor sprockets

P100 conveyor sprockets work with conveyor chains with a 100 mm pitch. Such chain is used in heavy conveyors, scrapers and feeders with a long centre distance, where it carries a considerable load mass or works with flights.

P100 conveyor sprockets - a compact sprocket with few teeth

The long pitch gives a sprocket of moderate diameter with just a few teeth, so the drive fits into a compact conveyor design. A tooth profile matched to the chain variant ensures even chain running and limits joint wear, extending the line's operating time between repairs.

P100 hub sprockets and plate wheels for welding

Sprockets for P100 series chains, divided into two subgroups: hub sprockets, ready to be fitted on the shaft, and plate wheels for welding or bolting to your own hub. The chain variant (e.g. R40) is given in the product name.

Questions and answers: a P100 sprocket and a P50 chain, and measuring the pitch

Does a P100 sprocket fit a P50 chain?

No. The sprocket must have the same pitch as the chain - for a 50 mm pitch chain, choose a sprocket from the P50 group.

How do I check the chain pitch?

Measure the distance between the axes of several adjacent pins and divide it by the number of gaps. A result close to 100 mm indicates a P100 series chain.
